Advantages: Minty taste., Gum protection, Very effective

Disadvantages: None

The toothpaste I am going to write about is Colgate Cavity Protection toothpaste with Calcium.
I think this is a great way of keeping your teeth clean. Another plus is that your gums are protected.

The active ingredients are:
Sodium Monoflourophophate 0.76% w/w (1000 ppmF).
USP Sodium Floride 0.1% w/w (450ppmF) Ph Eur.

Other ingredients are:
Dicalcium Phosphate Dihydrate, Glycerine Ph Eur, Sorbitol Ph Eur, Cellulose Gum Ph Eur, PEG-12,Sodium Lauryl Sulphate PH Eur., Sodium Saccharin Ph Eur, Tetrasodium Pyrophosphate, 89 - 540 Flavour, Purified Water Ph Eur.

Take a tip from me:
Brush your teeth for about 1 minute per time, twice a day and you will find an improvement. I have found that by using Colgate Cavity Protection, the Flouride that is in this toothpaste has actually reduced what I have had to have done at the dentist, which is not a bad thing (unless, of course, you are a dentist trying to earn a living).

The after taste left behind by using this toothpaste is of a minty one. I like this taste, as some of the other toothpastes I have tried do not have this.

Even younger children can use this toothpaste, but only if they put a tiny spot on their tooth brushes.

This Colgate toothpaste comes in 2 different sizes of tubes. These being 50ml and 100ml.
Prices for these sizes are: £0.79 for the 50ml and £1.32 for the 100ml.

I cannot fault the manufacturers (Colgate Palmolive UK Ltd for the very bright packaging. This is a mainly shiny red box with a blue area identifying the words *Cavity Protection*, with all writing in white, apart from the words *With Calcium* (written in yellow).

I can therefore recommend this toothpaste to anyone wishing to buy it.
