Weldental Chewtab Gentle Whitening Toothpaste Tablets

I love how this tastes and cleans, it's started whitening my teeth already. The bottle is small and easy to pack for trips, and you get so many uses from the first bottle and the refill that it's totally worth the cost. It seems more expensive at first, but it is less expensive than regular toothpaste. We were using Colgate Brilliance before and this has been a smart replacement.

I want to start off by saying I initially loved this stuff. The taste is great, but there's an aftertaste from the Stevia. That didn't really bother me much though. It was fun to use. I liked not having plastic or wasting excess toothpaste. And this doesn't dirty up my sink. However, it made my gums hurt really badly, particularly in the region of my front teeth. When I switched to regular toothpaste, the pain stopped immediately. Makes me sad because I liked the product.

I decided I wanted to use toothpaste tablets every day, not just for travel, and one thing you'll find if you are new to the idea is that the tablets don't fill your mouth with lots of bubbly toothpaste like you're probably used to. I'm not sure they clean as well, but I really believe the brushing technique is the most important part and I use a good Oral-B electric and I thoroughly floss. I really hate toothpaste containers. I love the taste of these tablets better than any other minty ones that I tried. Those who complain about the stevia sweetness I can't relate to. I hate the taste of stevia but I don't notice it in these tablets at all. I like that they are a bit sweeter than others. I also like that they crumble easily in your mouth. If I were to ask for an improvement, I would say they should be half again as large as they are, like the Hello brand. That brand is also very very good. Hello tablets are more substantial but harder to break up in your mouth. I tried another brand that offered strawberry. It tasted great but they were effervescent and create a sweet foam in your mouth that begs to be swallowed. Won't' get those again. I will continue with these Weldental tablets as well as the watermelon flavor Hello brand for the kids (and sometimes myself). I've also ordered the Weldental bubblegum flavor in my next subscribe and save order. Per tablet, this option is much less expensive than the mint ones in the bottle.

In regards to packaging, there was a large amount of broken and disintegrated tablets in the bottle despite the presence of a a cotton puff. This attests to the fragility of the tablets and inefficient care with packaging and shipping. In regards to the product, the tablets are easy to chew and serve well for brushing. I initially purchased this to use with a vibrating toothbrush (mouth guard style) and can say that these do not work well for such purpose. However, they do with a standard manual or electric toothbrush. Additionally, I have found a use for these in remembering my work brushing routine at night by placing a tablet in my pill box with my night medications. As my pill box does not get vigorously jostled, I do not have to worry about the fragility of the tablets.

I had never used chewable toothpaste before, but I'm in love with these guys. They cut down on waste (no plastic), ship in cardboard that can be recycled, and I leave a good taste in your mouth. Recently while travelling, I took a few in a smaller container and ended up not having enough. I borrowed my husband's regular toothpaste (Crest, in a plastic - ugh - tube). I couldn't believe how disgustingly my mouth tasted afterwards. I had this awful chemical aftertaste for a few hours. I guess after not using it for so long, my taste buds adjusted to not tasting the chemicals that I had never noticed before. Wish I would have found these sooner, GREAT PRODUCT!!!

The tablets are perfect for emergencies and travel. The flavor is mild, and has a decent foam. The more you scrub the more it foams. For those of you that have used tooth powders, this is very much like a compressed version. Leaves teeth feeling clean. I am totally getting more. Glad it comes in a reusable container, even better it won't dry out like normal toothpaste.

I really like these tablet. First time trying them. First, I used a single tablet and couldn't get the same lather I do with regular natural toothpastes, so I ended up using 2 tablets each time I brush in the morning in order to get a proper lather to brush my teeth (and use a different natural toothpaste in the evening). So this 60 tablet bottle lasts 30 days. I crush the tablets with my molars, tilt my head back a bit, and brush normally so any of the lather doesn't spill out of my mouth. Ways to improve my experience: After brushing with these tablets, I definitely have a clean feeling in my mouth, but there's also a super sweet feeling that I don't like. Use less sweetener if possible in new formula. Or maybe it's just me. And since I need 2 tablets for proper lather, maybe make the tablets bigger, or keep them the same size, but make the bottle bigger with more tablet, or lower the price. Right now, the price is kind of higher than preferred. Also, the glass bottle is excellent, but do change the label to paper without laminate. I do like these tablets and will continue to buy the refills until I find a cheaper alternative.
