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). |

Ultimate in Canker Sore Relief
My husband and teen son suffered for years and years from very severe canker sores and we had tried many things that were little or no help. A few years ago, we tried Squigle as a regular everyday toothpaste for them and ever since- they both rarely get canker sores and when they do they are much less severe and the healing time is much faster. Service from Homestead Market is excellent, too- so we always order it here.

Best for dry & sensitive mouth
Squigle came highly recommended by a friend, and it has more than exceeded expectation. No more mouth misery, Squigle is the best!

Relief for Cancer Patients
I initially purchased Squigle Tooth Paste by accident because I was recovering from head and neck cancer and radiation treatments left my mouth an open wound. Squigle was the only toothpaste that did not cause severe discomfort. Indeed, I have kept on using it since 2013 because of its excellent decay preventing properties as well as its dry-mouth preventing agents, Xylitol. I passed the info on to my radiation oncologists and they have been recommending it ever since. I am a Squigle customer for life, thank you for your excellent product!

Good Product
I am a general dentist and would highly recommend this toothpaste. Squigle enamel saver is not irritating to soft tissue in my experience. Nice mint flavor, not too strong, no stinging and has fluoride and xylitol for strengthening and decay prevention. So many of the newer toothpastes are excessively abrasive and can increase sensitivity in the teeth and tissues. I am glad to recommend this product to my patients, friends and family.

Review
I have oral lichen planus and am very limited on what I can use for toothpaste. The last 5 years I've only used warm water and baking soda. My periodontist recommended Squigle to me. I really like it. Minimal mint which can aggravate my mouth but just enough to feel fresh breath. And the fluoride helps preserve my teeth. My husband started using it too and likes it. He had been using Sensodyne but it was still too strong for his teeth. I think the absence of the sodium laurel sulfate really makes a difference when you have inflammation in your mouth!

Mouth Sores Disappearing
Developed lichen planus (autoimmune disease) and could no longer tolerate the harsh chemical in regular toothpaste and mouthwash. Was using Biotene, as recommended by dentist, but had limited results. Dentist suggested Crest toothpaste (old formula) to remove stains (that Biotene did not eliminate) and developed terrible sores in mouth after a few days of use. I tossed all the toothpaste products in my house that contains harsh chemicals (including Tom's toothpaste). Since using Squigle toothpaste, the sores in my mouth are healing and no new sores have developed. I learned about this product by doing my own research on possible products that would prevent mouth sores. I will let my dentist know about this product at my next appointment. I still have to watch my diet and rinse my mouth after snacks and meals, but have noticed considerable improvement in the few days I have used this product. I also use an extra soft toothbrush that was given to me by my dentist. Most toothbrushes are too harsh for my gums and surrounding tissues.

Happy mouth!
Growing up I would get so many canker sores but there was no product that helped ease the pain or reduce chances of having more. Recently my 8 yr old son began experiencing the horrible pain of canker sores and I wasn't going to tell him to "ride it out" like I had to do as a child. Google saved the day. He began using the product as soon as it came and he loves it. He doesnt have a sore now and I'm trusting the product to ward off any future sores. The mint flavor is tolerable for "little" mouths as well. In fact, he likes to share his minty breath each time he uses it. "Does my breath smell good?" and he'll give me a blow of air. Makes me giggle. He loves squigle! I'm absolutely certain we will be customers for life!

Ulcer free!
Product arrived on time and in great condition. Replaced with Squiggle when Rembrandt ceased production of its toothpaste for canker sore sufferers.

Stopped Mouth Ulcers/Canker Sores!
Been using just this toothpaste for about 9 months now and i havent had a single horrible canker sore attack since i started! Of course i may get one canker sore hurting once in a while just from junk foods and sweets or other reasons but this toothpaste has completely stopped the horrible canker sore attacks i used to have 10-20 in the mouth at once! Full rating would give more if i could.

Enamel Saver Toothpaste
I've been using Enamel Saver for years now. Prior to using Enamel Saver I suffered from chronic canker sores, typically getting at least one or two per month. Since using Enamel Saver I rarely get canker sores and even when I do get one it typically is less severe and of shorter duration. Enamel Saver has been a blessing for me and is well worth the additional cost. GB
