Messed up order!!
The toothpaste I bought was correct. But the toothbrush I bought was sent to me in a pink color. My husband will not use a pink toothbrush!! His shorts I ordered are the wrong size!!! I'm not happy!!

Good taste
One of my favorite whitening toothpastes! I love the taste and that it doesn’t leave a gritty taste in my mouth after brushing. Would definitely buy again

Active prevention
I trust the Colgate brand because I've been using it all my life and it's most accessible this particular toothpaste does more than just clean your mouth and freshen your breath. It actively whitens your teeth and does more to help prevent stains. I've noticed in the two weeks that my teeth look a little bit wider

Refreshing mint
I have gotten so many compliments saying that my teeth are noticably whiter. That is the first time that a toothpaste has been that effective! It foams up nicely, the mint flavor isn't overpowering, and my teeth definitely feel polished after.

Use with caution
After being used this toothpaste a few months I can feel my teeth cleaner than before but this toothpaste can cause sensitivities in some people because the active ingredient is stannous fluoride. I don’t have any gum disease after tried it and my breath feels super fresh and minty. There is no residue after cleaning, even I use mouthwash after cleansing and everything is ok. I had a brown stain on my teeth as you can see in the picture but with an adequate tartar remover I eliminated it. I’m not sure if it was related with toothpaste but my dentist say it might be

Daily Whitening
I love the Colgate toothpaste! Great for daily use in fighting cavities, fluoride protection, and helps whiten the teeth. Taste is not bad either!

Deep cleaning
I really enjoyed this toothpaste. It has a nice mint flavor that isn’t too “spicy.” it has a smart phone technology that I really feel like help helps clean my mouth and teeth better than any toothpaste I’ve used. I left my mouth and my teeth feeling squeaky clean. I especially like that this toothpaste features a flip cap. Many toothpaste have changed to just having a small removable screwtop cap, and I love having a cap that stays on the toothpaste.

Freshest Breath All Day
Colgate Total Active Protection Plaque Cleanse After just one use I could immediately tell my teeth looked whiter and brighter thanks to this toothpaste that puts in extra effort so you don't have to. It starts as a blue gel that brushes into a foam to fight against gingivitis, plaque, tartar, sensitivity, weak enamel, stains, bad breath and cavities. Knowing all the bases are covered from cavities to sensitivities it's an easy choice with amazing results. The minty flavor isn't too overpowering but still strong enough to leave you with the freshest breath all day

It’s okay
I mean I’m not a fan of this one in the Colgate but I do love the brand because they have the 3 color version which is my fav. But I honestly don’t like the taste of this but it does gets the job done

No chalky aftertaste!
We’ve tried many different toothpastes, and Colgate Total Active Prevention Whitening Gel is by far one of our favorites. The taste is very pleasant and not overpowering, and it doesn’t have that chalky texture that so many toothpastes do. It leaves our mouths feeling clean and fresh while still being gentle enough for everyday use. This one has definitely become a staple in our household.

Effective, Helped Whiten My Teeth as a Frequent Co
This is the only whitening toothpaste in which I’ve actually noticed a difference between my teeth before and after. I have the most stubborn spot that always gets stained on my front tooth, and while I didn’t notice that specific spot being lightened, I did notice my teeth becoming whiter in general. It is also minty enough to ensure that your breath smells fresher after using.

A reliable whitening toothpaste that freshens well
I’ve been using Colgate Optic White consistently, and overall I’m very satisfied with the results. My teeth feel noticeably cleaner and smoother after each brush, and the mint flavor leaves my mouth feeling fresh for a long time. Over time, I’ve seen a gradual improvement in the brightness of my smile, especially with regular use. The only downside for me was a bit of tooth sensitivity during the first few days, but it wasn’t too uncomfortable and went away as my teeth adjusted. I also appreciate that it fits easily into my daily routine without feeling harsh or abrasive. While it doesn’t deliver instant whitening, it does a good job maintaining a brighter look with consistent use.
