What is this product?
Fluoride-free 'training' toothpastes designed for infants and toddlers (ages 0-3) who cannot yet spit. Despite being fluoride-free (reducing one risk), these products often contain sodium lauryl sulfate (linked to canker sores and mucosal irritation), artificial sweeteners, titanium dioxide nanoparticles as opacifier, and preservatives like sodium benzoate. Marketed as 'safe to swallow,' they are intentionally ingested 100% of the time by this age group, making all ingredients systemic exposures rather than topical ones.
