My son hates anything minty. He hates the smell and taste of toothpaste. We always get into a negative zone when it’s brushing teeth time. I am trying to go back in time to determine what’s the root cause of his toothpase trauma. My daughter told me when he was little he ate Vicks. I have bought many kinds of toothpaste in the past hoping that I would find that one distinct taste that would be palatable to my son. Strawberry flavor, bubble gum, berries, etc. I bought the ones with attractive cartoon drawings to attract him but to no avail.
I spoke to my son’s dentist Dra. Beth Cenidoza from Kapitolyo, Pasig, and she advised using baking soda as a good substitute for regular toothpastes. It even whitens the teeth daw. I bought 3 boxes and hopefully my son will like it.
