Toothpaste!

My son will only use strawberry flavour toothpaste from Tesco.

I am 48 and have o ly cleaned my teeth with NT things once or twice in the last decade. 

I have most of my teeth still and actually my teeth are better than many NTs who brush daily. 

We've found aqua fresh strawberry and mint to be successful at the minute. It's more strawberry than mint.

after many many tubes of toothpaste for my son we discovered.    Oranurse unflavoured doesn't make foam can buy it on Amazon

I use Fluoride-Free toothpaste; which I get from Amazon.

really?

There is some research that suggests the glycerine in toothpaste actually inhibits tooth repair! And if you look into the research on fluoride it's shocking and would put anyone off. The history of toothpaste is a fascinating tale of a marketing driven social behaviour and corrupt politics.

that's cool

i'll try that

He could brush without toothpaste.

Bizzarley, the British Dental Association (the professional body for detists) recommends that brushing without toothpaste is more effective than with toothpaste. I've been doing that for 20 years and dentists alwaYs comment how clean my teeth are, etc. 

I've never had an issue with the taste of toothpaste, but the texture of the toothbrush and the sound and vibrations of brushing the teeth is very unpleasant for me, to the point that I cannot watch it in TV and movies. It's like fingernails on a chalkboard for me and I cannot believe how often people are brushing their teeth in TV shows! It adds nothing to the narrative but it seems to be really commonly shown for some reason, perhaps as a lazy trope for "this person just got up".

Have a look at younger children’s toothpaste, I accidentally used my daughters age 3-6 paste the other day and it had more of a subtle sweet spearminty taste and has the same fluoride content as adult toothpaste

Oh! I have a thing about toothpaste as well. Ecodenta makes a few that are really mild. I personally like this one https://www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/ecodenta-multifunctional-toothpaste-60006926

You could buy a few different ones and use what he doesn't prefer. Coconut oil based ones are really amazing at cleaning as well. 

There are plenty of toothpastes to choose from.

One suggestion is go shopping with him and involve in choosing a toothpaste.

Unfortunately we can't sample toothpastes in supermarkets.
