My kids were using Tom's strawberry flavored kids toothpaste until their teeth turned yellow (shockingly bad).  The natural kids toothpaste is a clear, gel consistency.  Do any of your kids use a toothpaste that looks normal? (white and looks like a paste)  They don't like my regular Tom's toothpaste. I am opoen to trying another flavor.  What has worked for your family?

have you ever thought of just adding an orgainc flavoring extract to your toothpaste such as vanilla, orange,pepermint is probly allready in there so I assume no on that one. Cinnamon, lemmon,organge. This way you don't have to keep buying toothpaste. I am sure you have an idea of what they like too. Just get some flavor extracts and put a drop on and stir it in the toothbrush with a toothpick. That is what i would try.

I used to use Nature's Gate (brand) Creme de Anise toothpaste.  It tastes like licorice.  Maybe your kids would like the taste of that.  If the Tom's kids toothpaste turned your kids' teeth yellow, I would  e-mail and tell them.  They are very responsive to customer's concerns.  I've written them several times about products of theirs that I have used.

I use toothsoap.  There are many flavors.  I like the liquid better than the soap shards.  Maybe that would be fun for them to use a liquid...something different.www.toothsoap.comGood Luck!Becky
