So I tried the Splat Organic toothpaste. I shifted from my normal toothpaste and started using it. In a couple of weeks, after finishing the tube I will update and tell you if my teeth have whitened as well in the process.
For now let me tell you about my immediate reactions after using it for a few days. Clearly (as shown on the packaging) the toothpaste contains natural Aloe Vera. Although technically one is not supposed to swallow a toothpaste, there are many toothpastes that have a tendency to taste to strong. I quite liked the taste of the Splat Organic toothpaste, as there is a subtle taste of mint and Aloe Vera, yet it is not overpowering.
Splat Organic contains not only Aloe Vera (to keep the gums healthy), but also natural papaya and tea tree oil. The company states that the natural papaya enzyme removes soft dental plaque, whilst the tea tree oil prevents plaque formation. Combo effect. This particular toothpaste contains egg shells used to boost calcium needed to strengthen tooth enamel. It obviously is not vegan friendly (but good for vegetarians).
One of the main recommendation you can find about this product is that it is recommended for use during pregnancy (but I cannot verify that for you :-). There is a growing movement for pregnant mums to be to go organic. This means that also the toothpaste you use should be organic.
The vegan Range
Splat though has a range of vegan friendly toothpaste. In fact, the next toothpaste I want will try after finishing the the Organic will be the Blackwood Charcoal. This is a black toothpaste created for high-spirited men! In all, the brand has eight toothpastes that are vegan friendly.
Interestingly Splat state that for the past 5 years they have maintained a carbon neutral program of production.
How much does Splat Organic cost?
Splat is available from leading supermarkets. It costs €6.99. Splat Malta have a facebook page. The whole SPLAT range is available online at twentyfiveoseven.com with free delivery to any location in Malta and Gozo.

I started using this toothpaste during my pregnancy as it was recommended to me by a friend. The taste is fresh but soft and not annoying, especially in the morning. I actually still use.

Not sure if this actually has organic ingredients. The only thing organic that is for sure is the name. Some ingredients are organic or just natural. If you wanna buy it because you look for an all organic toothpas maybe look for another one.BUT i actually like this toothpaste. It does not give a bad mouth health maybe because it has lesser of the natural ingredients compared to others? And thus less to rot? Instead it actually cleans and feels like it has strong anti bacterial effect without hurting
