 (12 customer reviews)

So to get this out of the way: Yes, this toothpaste is not the traditional mint flavor, it's like a weird orange-y citrus flavor. I definitely admit that I didn't like it at first, but I LOVED how clean it made my mouth feel, definitely more than any toothpaste I've ever used. I think this is attributed to it foaming more than most toothpastes. It creates a thicker foam which (according to the box) is supposed to get in between your teeth and clean them better, or something. Whatever it's doing, I can definitely feel it. After using a bunch of the major toothpaste brands out there (Crest, Colgate, Arm & Hammer), AND comparing it to other Aquafresh toothpastes, I'd say this is the most effective toothpaste I've used. To cite a specific example, my teeth feel cleaner after one minute of brushing (with the same toothbrush) than TWO minutes with other toothpastes. (note: yes, I know you're supposed to brush for two minutes+, I'm just using this as a comparison example)...Read more

This is the worst-tasting toothpaste I have ever used. I cannot understand why they decided to go with LEMON. It was so bad I had to rinse my mouth out with Listerine. Anything that makes Listerine taste good should never have left the Aquafresh test labs. Aside from a small reference to its "distinctive citrus mint flavor" on the back of the box (who has time to read every word of packaging in-store?), there was no obvious indication that it was lemon-flavored.

In all fairness, my teeth do feel clean. But at what price? This tube went straight off the counter into the trash.

As some other reviewers have noted, this Aquafresh toothpaste has a terrible taste. To me, it has an acrid chemical taste, like when you're outside and someone covers themselves with bug spray. The first time I used it, I actually grabbed the tube in alarm, confused that perhaps I had picked up something other than toothpaste. On the other hand, it did make my mouth feel extremely clean...but almost numb like how it feels after getting work done at the dentist's office. Even though I didn't brush my teeth any differently than usual, it somehow felt as though the toothpaste reached every possible surface area in my mouth. Again, it was almost alarming. I've never felt so torn about a toothpaste! Will I continue to use it? Yes, for as long as I can without vomiting.
