Natural Kids Xylitol Tooth Gel, Original 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)

We started using this Spry xylitol toothpaste when my baby was about 6 months old, right as his first teeth began coming in, and when starting baby led weaning, it has been such a positive experience for us. Teething can be uncomfortable, but this gel has been very gentle on his gums and actually helps make brushing something he enjoys rather than fights. The flavor is mild which is perfect for babies and young toddlers. it doesn’t have any smell or any other type of fragrance. My baby willingly opens his mouth and even seems to enjoy brushing time, which was not the case before. We use it with a TePe soft toothbrush, and the gel spreads easily and is very safe for this age. The ingredient list is perfect for what we were looking for, and I like knowing the xylitol supports oral health. We’ve been using it consistently and plan to continue using this toothpaste until he’s old enough for fluoride toothpaste. If you’re starting oral care early or looking for a gentle toothpaste for babies and toddlers, this one has worked really well for us. Highly recommend for early brushing routines.

Pros: great ingredients for a toothpaste to help remineralization of teeth enamel and prevention of cavities, mild sweet taste without any strong flavors, and all ingredients are considered safe in food so if your kid doesn't spit well, you can still use it. Also, it was approved and used by a 3 year old and 2 yr old Cons: pricy for a small package, gets used really fast even when using a tiny amount per tooth brushing session. I would like the brand to introduce a larger volume toothpaste with volume discount to account for less packaging and shipping cost) which would be a better value for customers especially for multiple individuals all using the same toothpaste in a family. Details: I'm surprised the seller doesn't advertise the benefits of the other key ingredients. I read about the remineralization benefits of hydroxyapatite (which has calcium, phosphorus and oxygen, in similar mix as what is in your teeth) and I was planning to switch from this brand of toothpaste to another toothpaste but I was having a difficult time finding a hydroxyapatite toothpaste which didn’t have glycerin, foaming agents, tea tree (poisonous to injest even in small doses) and other chemicals I didn't like (closest I found was Ollie, which had a foaming agent which is supposed to be less irritating to mouth lining than sodium lauryl sulfate). I went back to figure out why I initially decided to buy this toothpaste and found out that one of the ingredients in the toothpaste include Calcium Glycerophosphate, which contains calcium and phosphorus (like hydroxyapatite but minus the oxygen), and therefore helps to remineralize teeth (one study mentioned 48% caries reduction using 2.5% Calcium Glycerophosphate toothpaste applied to primates vs 15% reduction in caries using flouride toothpaste which had less than optimal flouride amount of 450ppm F as sodium flouride). This looked similar to another study of hydroxyapatite toothpaste which mentioned caries inhitibition rate of 36% in boys and 56% in girls over 3 years (only 26% inhibition in one year). A separate study also mentioned that including Calcium Glycerophosphate in carbonated beverages prevented the reduction in surface microhardness of enamel and mineral loss of calcium and phosphorus (cabonated beverages apparently lead to higher incidence of dental erosion and caries due to its acidic content). Also grape seed extract also helps mineralization and a study indicated grape seed extract significantly increased the microhardness of root caries lesions when compared to a control group and created significantly thicker mineral precipitation band on the surface layer of the grape seed extract-treated lesions when compared to 1000ppm floride. In skin, xylitol has been reported to improve barrier function and suppress the growth of potential skin pathogens. Xylitol is best known for its dental benefits, such as reducing the risk for dental caries. This is thought to function through three mechanisms: xylitol replaces cariogenic sucrose, xylitol may stimulate salivation, and xylitol may have specific inhibitory effects on Streptococcus mutans—the main causative microbe of dental caries However despite claims to be food safe, xylitol (like erythritol) had a study published in 2024 indicating eating xylitol could increase risk of blod clots and thus major adverse coronary event, so it is still recommended that you swish and spit (although kids have much lower probability of heart attacks than older adults)

Even though this is marketed as a baby toothpaste, we’ve continued using it for both of our kids as they’ve grown. They love the taste — it makes brushing easy without any complaints — and I like that it uses xylitol instead of harsh ingredients. The texture is gentle, there’s no fluoride to worry about swallowing, and the ingredient list gives peace of mind. We’ve tried other brands, but we keep coming back to this one because it checks all the boxes: safe, effective, and kid-approved. Highly recommended for toddlers and young kids alike.

So glad we found this xylitol toothpaste that is safe for toddlers. Our son likes the taste of it too. It doesn’t have sent to it. Overall very happy with our purchase and will purchase again.

My kids didn't like that it had no flavor at all but it seems to work well and their teeth also seemed very clean. I chose this one because it came up as one of the best non toxic toothpaste for kids. No fluoride and containers xylitol. While their teeth were very clean, their breath didn't seem super fresh. We switched to happy tooth and they (and I) love it.

This toothpaste is great! It’s a bit expensive compared to stop other brands but I like it a lot. I’m currently using it in conjunction with crest kids toothpaste and my toddler prefers this one. I briefly stopped using xylitol toothpaste for a few months and my daughter ended up developing several cavities. We just started using this toothpaste along with some xylitol mints and the plaque is already coming off her teeth! Definitely necessary to use for babies and toddlers.

I wasn’t to happy with another brand of gel. My dentist gave me a sample. This works so much better. I’m able to keep in my pocket book. I ordered the kid’s light mint, it’s a $1. Cheaper. Save where ya can.

I am always looking for clean swaps for my kids and this did not disappoint. I went with the original since my daughter is sensitive to taste. This is fluoride free, has no tastes, and keeps my kids teeth very clean. After a month of using this toothpaste we had a dentist visit and they were very impressed with the upkeep and cleanliness of her teeth. I also love the flavor options such as bubblegum and strawberry banana. Will be purchasing again!

Started using this toothpaste when my little one was a few months old and still using it now that she is 2. No flavour, just a sweet taste and the efficiency of xylitol. No need to spit it out. And the giraffe on the packaging is obviously very popular!

Terrible

our favourite non-floride toothpaste/gel. it is a gel so falls off the brush easily so just have to watch for that. but other than that we love that it's still safe if swallowed and tested low for heavy metals.

Great for little ones as they always tend to swallow toothpaste. I'd much rather they swallow harmless xylitol than toxic fluoride. No teeth problems either.

Bought this due it getting such a good review on lead based mama. It's decent. My kiddos call the flavor "honey". Slips off the toothbrush if it's standing up so you have to lay it down, but thats no biggie.
