Description
Squigle® Enamel Saver® Xylitol Toothpaste with FLUORIDE is gentle to your mouth while it gets down to the serious business of preventing surface stain and fighting plaque, tartar, cavities and other oral conditions that can make life miserable. Squigle also helps prevent canker sores and soothes and protects dry mouths.
This toothpaste has a very loyal customer base with a high rate of repeat purchases, because it works so well.
Squigle's advantages over conventional toothpastes:
- Plaque, Cavity and Bad Breath Preventive.
Squigle is a pleasantly flavored mouth friendly fluoride toothpaste that contains 36% US birch xylitol -- more than any other toothpaste. Xylitol's unique properties discourage the development of plaque, cavities and even bad breath. That means healthier teeth, gums and mouth for you -- and potential dental office savings for your pocketbook. - Helps Avoid Canker Sores.
Squigle helps you to avoid future occurrences of painful canker sores and mouth ulcers. It contains no harsh detergents, such as sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), which is believed to be a contributing factor in canker sores. It also doesn't contain harsh abrasives, stinging flavors, irritating tartar control agents or bleaches. What's not in your toothpaste is as important as what is. Use Squigle® for long-term canker sore control. If you struggle with canker sores, you will also want to look at our Canker Sore Relief Kit.
Squigle Toothpaste is also vegan and free of gluten, dairy and soy. It is made in the USA with American ingredients and packaging.
If you prefer a fluoride-free toothpaste, use Tooth Builder Sensitive Toothpaste, which is also extremely effective in fighting cavities and canker sores (aphthous stomatitis). To help you decide which toothpaste best fits your needs, see a Comparison of Squigle. Squigle Jr, and Tooth BuilderToothpastes.

Is Squigle® Toothpaste with 36% Xylitol a cardiovascular risk?
©2024 SQUIGLE, Inc. Recently a paper appeared** which states that ingestion of Xylitol may pose a cardiovascular risk. Normal use of Squigle's toothpastes does not pose a risk--most people ages 6 and up don't swallow their toothpaste.
In the extreme case where a person brushes his/her teeth with a Squigle® Toothpaste 3 times a day and swallows, they would consume about 1 gram of Xylitol, which is too small to pose a risk, according to the article.
Regarding Squigle JR, which is recommended for infants and toddlers, the dose of Xylitol which they would swallow is too small to pose a risk, according to the article. Applications of Xylitol which may pose a risk, according to the article, includehabitual heavy use of: Xylitol chewing gum Xylitol candy Xylitol used as a sugar substitute **M. Witkowski et al., “Xylitol is prothombotic and associated with cardiovascular risk,” European Heart Journal (2024). |

Great product!
Have been using this for a few months and I absolutely love it!

I wish it weren't so pepperminty
I do love the thought of a birch-xylitol fluoride toothpaste, but the peppermint flavoring is too strong. I am sensitive to peppermint and wanted the flavoring to be mild enough so that it wouldn't upset my stomach. My roommate is the happy recipient of this toothpaste.

Best Toothpaste On the Market
When I found out about SLS and it's link to mouth sores I came across Squigle. I was somewhat skeptical of SLS and it being the culprit but I decided to try Squigle. After 2 years of using the product I have had only a handful of sores, usually from biting my check, and they heal in a fraction of the time. By far the best thing that has happened to mouth care!! I love the mild taste, Xylitol, and added Flouride, but nothing compares to how it has rid me of mouth sores. Best product out there!!

awesome!
I have had so many problems in the past with canker sores, my dentist couldn't even offer me any help other than numbing medicine once I got them, but no help to keep them from occurring. I found squiggle on line and decided to try it. I have not had one canker sore since I started using this toothpaste almost a year ago. I won't use any other toothpaste again! !

Cleans teeth well with no sour smell!
While I really enjoy using Squigle's flavor-free sister product Tooth Builder, I also need flouride, so I gave Squigle a try. Even with natural toothpastes, sometimes the mint flavoring can have a sour smell and taste that really bothers me, even if someone else is using it. Fortunately, Squigle's mint is very fresh, not very strong, and the smell doesn't fill the room. It rinses clean out of your mouth, and it leaves your teeth really clean. A note for people who wonder if they can tolerate Xylitol: I used to think that Xylitol was a migraine trigger for me. However, neither Squigle, nor its sister product, Tooth Builder, have ever given me a headache. This is possibly because they contain USA-grown birch Xylitol.
