I bought this toothpaste after reading about some cancer-causing chemical that was found in some brands of toothpaste.  I figured since Melaleuca products are all natural and don't have chemical additives like formaldehyde, this toothpaste would be worth my money.  Then the recall of Chinese toothpaste happened, and I thought this toothpaste would REALLY be worth my money!

Unfortunately, this toothpaste doesn't taste very good and leaves an aftertaste once you're done brushing.  It doesn't leave me with that minty-fresh taste and feeling, which is a letdown.  I think the nasty taste is due to the melaleuca oil that they add to all their products.  I think that once this tube is finished, I'm going back to Crest.

If you're into natural products, have money, and don't mind the flavor, by all means buy this.

Oh, and if you want to buy anything from Melaleuca, you have to call the company, get a membership, and buy a minimum amount per month.  It's getting pricey and I'm planning on terminating my membership soon.

I love it and I had been a Crest fan for years
It did take a couple days to adjust to the difference, but that is true when I changed to Ultrabrite a few years ago

Isn't it great that we live in a land where there's something for everyone? My family absolutely LOVES the flavor of the Melaleuca toothpastes, aftertaste and all! I mean LOVES! In fact, within days of our first order, my daughters asked if you could "brush your teeth too much". You might try Tom's. It's a nice transitional (poison to natural) toothpaste.
