Q: Hi, Our toothpaste came in a box that just has cardboard flaps and no tape or seals. The interior tubes don't have any seals either. Is this how the product is supposed to come? Thank you
A: If a toothpaste comes in a cardboard box, it typically will NOT have a foil seal. The cardboard is sealed at the end flap. However, some versions are made at an alternate plant for capacity reasons. In these cases, there will be a foil seal, which would be indicated on the package.

Q: Can this be used by a 2.5 year old that doesn’t know how to spit it out? Can small amounts be swallowed?
A: This is a fantastic question. Thank you for asking it, CC. We recommend all children under the age of six have adult supervision while brushing, use only a pea-sized amount of toothpaste, and be instructed to spit out the toothpaste and/or rinse after brushing. There is no safety risk to an adult or child who may occasionally swallow a small amount of toothpaste while brushing. Swallowing or ingesting ingestion a large amount of toothpaste may cause nausea, vomiting or diarrhea. If you have any questions or if we can help further, please give us a call at (800) 492-7378.
