Theodent hygienic toothpaste is the result of many years of painstaking work by a group of Tulane University scientists. They conducted a number of experiments to develop a unique Rennou formula, the main component of which is theobromine.
The product is available in 100 ml tubes. Laboratory studies have demonstrated that this substance has a positive effect on tooth enamel and copes with its hypersensitivity.
Important! Theodent is a toothpaste that cleanses teeth well of plaque, but does not contain an excessive amount of fluoride (an excess of this component can provoke a number of pathological processes in the human body).
Active ingredients

- theobromine. It has antimicrobial properties and strengthens enamel. Essentially, this substance replaces fluoride.

Swiss Smile “Day and Night” dental care system versus winter boots (6,500 rubles)
Winter boots are good and healthy, but two pastes at once, complete with a pair of brushes, will save the buyer a lot of money, which will not have to be given to the dentist.
The two-tube system provides double care. The first tube is a morning tooth whitening paste, and the second is an evening tooth restoration paste.
There are also two brushes - reduced hardness for morning cleaning and medium hardness for evening cleaning, when you need to remove more plaque and food debris.
Unlike a number of premium pastes, Swiss Smile has a high concentration of fluorides, which brings protection against caries to previously unknown heights. The paste helps get rid of plaque, in which bacteria accumulate, and restore the mucous membranes of the oral cavity.
Overall, with regular use, such a product will probably actually reduce the frequency of spending on fillings.
Varieties
The Theodent line of toothpastes is represented by several products. Theodent kids is designed for children from 2 to 5 years old, suitable for the prevention and treatment of caries in the early stages. The effect of using this paste is noticeable within a week - the sensitivity of the enamel decreases, hard tissues are strengthened, the teeth look white and well-groomed.
Thanks to cocoa bean extract, Theodent children's paste has a pleasant chocolate taste and aroma.
Theodent Classic is designed for patients with sensitive teeth. It has a pleasant mint-vanilla flavor, reduces the risk of caries, and cares for gums. Theodent 300 is a premium product for daily care of teeth and gums. During cleaning, the paste fills the micropores of the dentin, due to which the enamel gradually thickens and regenerates.
Theodent toothpastes
While the store has given a 30% discount on ALL toothpastes this weekend, I want to share my opinion about Theodent toothpastes, which cost under 3,000 thousand in our stores.
A little about why they are so expensive... Its developers, specialists from the American company BioInnovation Center, took the composition of the toothpaste quite seriously. From there, fluorides, which are present in many toothpastes and are toxic to humans in excess quantities, are completely excluded. At the same time, the chocolate toothpaste included theobromine, calcium and phosphates. In proportions that promote not only high-quality teeth cleaning, but also the building up of damaged enamel. Which should make the surface of the teeth not only more durable, but also snow-white.
The main component that sets Theodent chocolate toothpaste apart from others is cocoa extract, presented under the name Rennou. And which, according to the inventors, is a real breakthrough in the field of components of oral hygiene products. The paste is non-toxic, safe for children and harmless if accidentally swallowed (while swallowing formulations with fluorides is strictly not recommended).
The first to come to us was Theodent, Kids, Fluoride-Free Chocolate Toothpaste With Rennou, Whitening Chocolate Chip, 3.4 oz (96.4 g)
I didn’t write a review on the children’s paste until I received and tried the adult one, I wanted to compare and evaluate the difference.
What can I say? Personally, I liked the adult version more in terms of taste and sensations. The nursery has a sweet candy smell, a sweetish taste and a beige color, and does not foam at all when brushing your teeth. It doesn’t matter to a child what to brush their teeth with, but when I tried it on myself, I didn’t feel the expected freshness and smoothness of my teeth. In general, the pasta is not bad, but considering the price of almost 800 rubles. before discounts, and my requirements for it are higher.
In particular, I didn’t like the very uncomfortable cap, which was difficult even for me to remove, and already on the second day it burst almost in half. I see from the reviews that I'm not the only one. Given such a visually impressive box and tube, couldn't they use thicker plastic?
Adult Theodent, Fluoride Free Toothpaste With Rennou, Whitening Crystal Mint, 3.4 oz (96.4 g)
I liked it better in terms of taste and feel. The paste foams better, does not have a cloying odor, has a fresh minty taste (due to the content of mint oil), and has good cleaning abilities. My main problem when brushing my teeth is bleeding gums, but after using Desert Essence toothpaste it seems to have almost gone away. With this paste, the gums also do not bleed (there is also the effect of pycnogenol + the use of a soft brush with carbon threads instead of the usual bristles).
The cap is also not very comfortable. Considering that the baby one burst in my hands on the second day, here I try to remove it very carefully.
Having evaluated both, I can say that I will not take the children’s one again, but most likely I will take the adult one (I would like to evaluate it with prolonged exposure).

Premium class hygienic product for home care of teeth and gums
Theodent Classic paste or wallet (2300 rubles)
This is also a fluoride-free toothpaste - instead it contains theobromine, a substance obtained from cocoa beans. It strengthens and restores tooth enamel. At the same time, the paste is perfect for people who have hypersensitive teeth and gums, which makes it sometimes difficult to choose a paste that does not cause sharp sensations in the mouth.
Theodent Classic paste can be used with both a regular brush and an electric one, as well as an ultrasonic one. The composition of the paste is positioned as natural. It is almost ideal for hygiene when there are veneers, lumineers, crowns and implants in the mouth. So taking out a card from your wallet and paying for such pasta is not a bad idea.
Reviews
Svetlana, 43 years old, Perm: Inexpensive hygienic toothpaste, the whole family uses it. It smells nice, has a fairly thick consistency, and cleans well.

Alexey, 29 years old, Yekaterinburg: Theodent freshens breath, removes plaque from teeth and tongue quite well - just like a number of other hygienic toothpastes. To be honest, I don’t see anything special about this product.

According to dentists, this group of products efficiently copes with all the main tasks - removing plaque, fighting germs, preventing caries and inflammation, eliminating bad breath.

Advantages and disadvantages
The advantages of Theodent products include the following:
- all remedies eliminate hypersensitivity within a week;
- makes teeth whiter;
- removes carious spots at the initial stage;
- can be used before and after professional teeth cleaning and whitening;
- children's toothpaste has a chocolate taste, which most kids like and therefore they enjoy brushing their teeth;
- the company's products do not contain toxic substances, so they can be swallowed and will not cause harm to health;
- the pastes do not need to be washed off, which is especially convenient if there is no water nearby;
- the composition does not include highly abrasive substances, so no damage to the enamel is observed when using the product;
- have a GRAS safety certificate
Among the disadvantages, one can note the high cost.
Theodent 300 paste or smartphone (14,800 rubles)
Of course, this will not be a top-end smartphone, but it will also be a pretty decent device. So why can you refuse it in favor of such a paste? Because it contains hydroxyapatite. This is artificial tooth enamel that is incredibly resistant to the acids that constantly form in the mouth. The use of this paste is an excellent prevention of caries.
It is also very good for hypersensitive teeth, and a separate Rennou formula was developed for its composition, also based on theobromine. Actually, this innovative formula is one of the reasons for such a high price for the paste. But, in order to somewhat smooth out the pain of losing such a sum, the manufacturer took care of the paste’s delicate vanilla-mint flavor and a beautiful designer tube.
Black whitening paste White is Black from Curaprox
Most whitening pastes work on the same principle - due to abrasive particles. They, of course, effectively remove plaque and prevent the formation of hard stone, but they greatly damage tooth enamel - they scratch and injure the surface. But there is a much safer alternative - White is Black toothpaste from Curaprox. It looks unusual - the product is completely black. The fact is that the paste contains activated carbon. It absorbs plaque and bacteria, which cause yellow teeth, and thereby effectively whitens the enamel. And sodium fluoride prevents the development of carious formations.
Question No. 4. Is it true that toothpastes with healthy additives clean your teeth better?
Yes, if we are talking about extracts of medicinal plants such as sage, chamomile, St. John's wort, which have beneficial properties. For example, Forest Balsam paste with the addition of sage or St. John's wort does an excellent job.
However, those pastes that contain additives, such as sea salt (Dentalys paste), can cause an allergic reaction and even increased tooth sensitivity. Such pastes must be used according to the doctor’s recommendations, as a rule, no more than 1-2 times a week.”
