I must preface this review by mentioning that some people have minor allergies to certain kinds of toothpaste, which can cause the types of discomfort I'm about to describe.
I have been an Arm & Hammer user for years. Many dentists claim that the baking soda doesn't actually clean your teeth any better than other toothpaste, but that it just makes your teeth *feel* cleaner. That may be true, but it's good enough for me.
However, I ran out and wouldn't you know it but the store was out too so I wound up buying a tube of this Colgate paste/gel. Within two days my entire mouth was sore and my gums bled. Mind you, I had no issues with my gums prior to using this toothpaste.
Scared out of my wits that I had contracted some awful disease of the mouth I jumped online and quickly learned that it's not uncommon to have this kind of reaction and as soon as I returned to my good ol' Arm & Hammer, my mouth went right back to normal.
So I suppose the point of this review is to tell any would-be buyers out there to try a single tube before jumping into a six pack! In hindsight, I suppose that would be common sense, but if one person out there reads this and saves themselves some gum pain, I've done my job ;)

Very good product and a very value: six-pack of 8.2 ounce tubes. The taste is a refreshing mint that our mouths(wife and three girls) don't tire of. Highly recommend this for the family.

Hey, I can't literally promise you that you won't get any cavities or extra tartar if you use Colgate Tartar Control Plus Whitening Fluoride Toothpaste in the cool mint gel form--but I will say that it's an important part of the total plan for keeping your teeth clean and healthy. Colgate toothpaste will freshen your breath; and Colgate also does a good job of warding off cavities and tartar. Colgate also has the overall effect of adding some whiteness to your teeth. Colgate can also be used by children over age 2 if you supervise them as they brush their teeth.
The toothpaste comes out easily after you simply unscrew the top cap and gently squeeze the tube. The gel sticks well to the toothbrush so it doesn't slip off before you can get it in your mouth! It contains sodium fluoride; this fights cavities and tartar if you brush your teeth two or three times a day. In addition, Colgate is indeed sugar free. Colgate sweetens the minty flavored toothpaste with sugar substitutes. Colgate, of course, is NOT a substitute for regular and routine dental checkups; and the toothpaste manufacturer cannot literally guarantee that if you use Colgate you will have cavity-free, pearly white teeth without any tartar. Instead, Colgate reduces the chances of your getting cavities as it reduces the amount of visible tartar and darkening stains on your teeth.
If you have any questions about Colgate or if you need to know more specific information, contact Colgate. They have a website and there is also a toll free number on the box containing the tube of toothpaste.
Overall, Colgate gives us one of the better toothpastes around and it is an important part of the total plan to take good care of your teeth. Brush with Colgate after meals to immediately reduce your chances of getting a cavities or excess tartar. I am very impressed with this ADA accepted toothpaste and I recommend it highly.
