My three year old is allergic to cow's milk, eggs, and strawberries/raspberries/blackberries. We don't want to give him flouride or saccharin. Or SLS--it's bad enough it's in all the laundry detergents! I surely don't want to put it in his mouth. Besides, even though it's coconut-derived, it's an irritant. So why risk it in their mouths???
My son is still using up the last bit of saccharin and flouride free Oral B--which cannot be found anywhere these days prompting a search and a switch.
I'm so happy to have found this toothpaste. I do wish they had an apple or banana or grape flavor for those who think the mints burn--like burt's bees lip care. So my son has an aversion from the start. "like MINT chocolate candy without the chocolate..."
My 1 year old daughter loves it though and her breath smells lovely! Especially at those times when a new tooth is breaking through and you get some blood.
It's amazing to me that every other company has access to the same information we all do in regards to infant-safe ingredients yet they continue to use those ingredients--except this brand. THANK GOODNESS!!!
As for turning teeth YELLOW? I don't know how really. There is barely any color to the gel and it is more of a pale natural shade. The box does mention a "bright color" but there just isn't one? Maybe they changed it and didn't change the packaging? I'd contact them. Antibiotics can turn teeth yellow.

I examined all of the 'safe to swallow' toothpastes available on this site and settled on this one as it appeared to be the best choice. My son liked it, but still wasn't thrilled about brushing his teeth. I wasn't completely satisfied with it, especially since I had to basically brush his teeth for him. I didn't think it was effective enough and was a little skeptical about some of the ingredients. The metal tube was also a pain and ended up breaking open and making a mess. After expanding my search to other sites, I decided to purchase Earth's Best Toddler Toothpaste. The ingredients seemed to be better for dental care. My son went crazy over it, he is now excited to brush his teeth and actually brushes his own teeth. I quickly learned to squeeze the toothpaste into the bristles instead of putting it on top of the bristles because he likes it so much that he tries to suck the toothpaste off the toothbrush to eat it. It gets his teeth and gums squeeky clean and gives him fresh breath. So because of that, I have switched to the Earth's Best Toddler Toothpaste and would not purchase the Weleda Children's Tooth Gel again or recommend it to a friend.

      I used to like this toothpaste before they changed it. Now the consistency is so hard that it just rolls off toothbrushes. It is like playdoh but doesn't stick. The moment I start brushing, all the toothpaste fall off the toothbrush.

          Drugstore.com has the best price I can find for Weleda Children's Tooth Gel. My kids love it for the taste, I love it for the ingredients. It has a great score on EWG's Skin Deep database.

            I got this product because it is all natural without fluoride or sodium laurel sulfate. It tastes like medicine to me but my kids like it. My oldest liked it immediately but it took a few days for my youngest to warm up to it. My youngest thought it tasted bad and was "spicy" (as she describes anything that has that minty or spearament zing to your tongue). I probably won't buy this again because of its cost and taste.

              I switched to this toothpaste from Jason Kids toothpaste (strawberry flavored) because it was on sale. My daughter likes the flavor...she says its spicy but since she's 2, I think she means minty. It appears to clean her teeth pretty well. I like that it doesn't have any bad ingredients for kids so I am not worried about my daughter occasionally swallowing it. The only thing that I don't really like is that it doesn't really froth up like other toothpastes and it dissolves quickly so I feel like I have to use more to get the job done.

                  My two year old son does not like brushing his teeth but doesn't mind it when using the Weleda toothpaste. It leaves his breath minty fresh. The only downside is that he likes to eat it instead of brushing his teeth with it.

                  This is a pleasant-tasting toothpaste and it cleans teeth well. I love that the ingrediants don't pose health risks for my child and she loves the flavor (so do I...). The tube lasts a while and you only need a little bit to brush effectively. I like that it doesn't create a heavy foam, which helps with my toddler who is learning to brush her own teeth, so I can see into her mouth and she's not always having to swallow or spit. My only quibble is the price. I buy this when I have Drugstore dollars to help reduce the price -- I can't get over paying more than three bucks for toothpaste, no matter how "green" it is.

                      I wanted to avoid regular toothpaste for my 2 year old (swallow safe) because the ingredients, among other things, include plasticizers and have been linked to higher cholesterol. This paste smells and tastes great which has encouraged our daughter to ask to have her teeth brushed each night.
                      We have not experienced breakage on the metal tube- we work from the bottom up and gently squeeze a dab into the nozzle then push the toothbrush into it- operating quite a bit different than your easy-to-squish plastic container. Metal does fatigue and with care you should be able to avoid this.
                      Our Daughter loves this and we're happy we don't have to fight a bed time routine.
