I've been using this toothpaste for a bit now, and I'm really impressed with how it's helped fortify my teeth and gums. The grapefruit and pineapple flavors are a nice touch - they leave my mouth feeling super clean and refreshed. Plus, it's a great value for money. I've been using it twice a day, and I've noticed a big difference in the health of my teeth and gums. It's also super easy to use, and the formula is gentle enough for daily use. I've had some issues with sensitivity in the past, but this toothpaste has really helped alleviate that. I've been using it for a few weeks now, and I'm hooked.

summarizeEditor's Summary
I've been a fan of Doctor Fresh's products for a while now, and their Grapefruit + Watermelon toothpaste did not disappoint. After using it for a week, I was impressed with the build quality - it feels solid and premium. I also appreciated the fact that it's free from harsh chemicals like SLES and triclosan, which can be a big plus for those looking for a gentler cleaning experience. The gentle abrasives left my teeth feeling clean without any irritation, and the pleasant taste and long-lasting freshness were a nice bonus. However, the packaging could be more eco-friendly, and it's a bit pricey compared to other toothpastes on the market. Overall, I think this toothpaste is a great value for money, especially considering the natural ingredients and the fact that it's made in Russia. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and refreshing twist on daily oral care.

🌺🌺🌺 Hello, lovely readers! 🌺🌺🌺

I made a spontaneous purchase of this toothpaste, but it turned out to be a great decision - I was just walking by the Novex store, saw the new and colorful packaging of this toothpaste, remembered that I was running low on toothpaste at home, and this new one was on sale, so I decided to give it a try. Doctor Fresh's Grapefruit + Watermelon + Mineral Complex toothpaste is a brand I've worked with before, and I've always been impressed with their products, so I had no doubts about this new one.

Talking about the packaging and toothpaste tube 📦:
xa0
The toothpaste is packed in a cardboard box with a light green color and a bright image of ripe fruits: a juicy melon and a slice of grapefruit - what a great combination! It really caught my eye.
I love melons and grapefruits, and here they're together - it must be super tasty!
The packaging has all the necessary information: the name, manufacturer, composition, usage, and of course, what the manufacturer promises - we'll get to that later.
Here's what the packaging looks like - the cardboard box from the toothpaste:

On the side or at the bottom, there's the expiration date and barcode - all clearly visible and readable.
Grapefruit + Watermelon Toothpaste by Doctor Fresh - Expiration Date and GOST Manufacturing
I've got to say, the tube itself is pretty standard for a product like this, but it's got a nice light green color and the fruit illustrations are pretty eye-catching.
The tube is made of soft plastic, which is easy to roll up when you're done with the toothpaste. And it's super easy to squeeze out the toothpaste with a light press of the tube, but it stays securely on the cap.

By the way, the cap comes off easily - it's really convenient and won't break. Under the cap, there was a protective foil seal that came off easily on the first try.

The toothpaste dispenser is standard and easy to use - it gives you the right amount of toothpaste. I always use two pellets.
This Grapefruit + Watermelon Toothpaste from Doctor Fresh has a nifty dispenser that makes it easy to squeeze out the right amount
Let's take a closer look at the ingredients and see what Ecogolic has to say about them.
According to the label, this toothpaste
Does not contain SLS, SLES, PEG, and fluoride
It's worth noting that many companies are now ditching these ingredients.
Fluoride is a bit of a double-edged sword - it can help strengthen tooth enamel, but in excess, it can cause serious damage.
If you're eating a balanced diet and staying hydrated, you probably don't need a fluoride toothpaste. The problem is that excessive fluoride can be toxic to the body, building up in tissues like tooth enamel. If you get too much, you risk developing fluorosis, which is essentially the breakdown of tooth enamel.
Sorbitol, Silica, Hydroxyapatite, Aqua, Glycerin, Salvia Officinalis Extract (Sage Extract), Citrus Aurantifolia Fruit Extract (Lime Extract), Citrus Limon Fruit Extract (Lemon Extract), Xanthan Gum, Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Menthol, Sodium Saccharin, Citrus Grandis Fruit Extract (Grapefruit Extract), Cucumis Melo Fruit Extract (Watermelon Extract), Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Oil (Orange Oil), Sodium Bicarbonate, Benzoic Acid, Sorbic Acid, Dehydroacetic Acid, CI 12085.
Grapefruit + Watermelon Toothpaste by Doctor Fresh - Composition Analysis, Top Pick!
I'm an eco-warrior, and I'm totally stoked about the composition of this toothpaste. One ingredient I didn't recognize at first, but I'll get to that later. Now, let's dive into the benefits of each component.
First up, we've got Sorbitol, which I learned is a fantastic ingredient that even helps prevent cavities:
xa0
Sorbitol is a sweetener in toothpaste that enhances its taste and texture, preventing cavities.
In toothpaste, sorbitol slows down drying time and is used as a substitute for the more expensive and valuable humectant ingredient - glycerin.
Coming in second, we have:
xa0
Silica, Silicon Dioxide (hydrated silica) is the most commonly used abrasive in modern toothpastes. It's compatible with fluoride compounds and other active ingredients, has controlled abrasivity, and allows for a wide range of properties in toothpaste. It also provides an optimal pH of 7, normalizing the acidic-alkaline balance. It's safe, chemically neutral, and doesn't affect the final product's pH. Plus, the abrasivity of toothpastes based on silica dioxide is easy to control.
xa0
And finally, the third component in the mix is:
Hydroxyapatite is the main component of bones and teeth in humans. It's what gives them their density. The chemical formula for hydroxyapatite is:
Ca5 (PO4)3(OH)
(5 calcium atoms + 3 phosphate groups + one hydroxyl group).
Enamel on our teeth is made up of 97% hydroxyapatite, and that's the hardest tissue in our body.
Hydroxyapatites also have some pretty useful properties:
xa0
1. They make enamel stronger. By integrating into the enamel structure, hydroxyapatite fills in microscopic gaps and makes the enamel denser. The effect depends on the concentration of hydroxyapatite in the paste. The best results (similar to those of fluoride) come from pastes containing at least 10% hydroxyapatite. Nano-hydroxyapatite (with particle sizes between 20-80 nm) generally works better than micro-hydroxyapatite (with particle sizes between 5-10 microns).
2. They whiten teeth. Whitening occurs due to the saturation of teeth with calcium ions.
3. They smooth out the enamel surface. This makes it harder for plaque to stick to it and, consequently, also reduces the risk of cavities.
xa0
Then there are the usual suspects: water and glycerin components that are always a must-have)
And, of course, we have extracts of sage, lemon, and lime - super-useful components that fight inflammation and have antibacterial properties! For example, sage is often prescribed for a sore throat. Lemons and limes are rich in vitamin C)
A bit further down, we have a list of menthol for fresh breath and a pleasant minty taste)
xa0
I've also been impressed by the added flavor of pomelo (which I'm pretty sure is just grapefruit, as listed on the packaging), watermelon, and orange
xa0
So, what's the benefit of these added flavors?
xa0
Grapefruit is a powerhouse of microelements and amino acids, which makes it a great antioxidant and overall oral health booster.
Watermelon is a rich source of calcium, which helps strengthen teeth and prevent cavities.
xa0
And last but not least, there's the synthetic red food coloring CL12085:
xa0
This cosmetic coloring agent is known to be toxic and potentially carcinogenic.
xa0
Honestly, I've tried plenty of plain white toothpaste before and haven't seen any issues, so I think it would be great if they skipped the coloring altogether – it would be perfect)
xa0
💎Here's the manufacturer's description of the Uplifting Toothpaste with Grapefruit and Watermelon💎:
This toothpaste combines the benefits of grapefruit and watermelon, packing a punch of vitamins and minerals. Grapefruit's high content of microelements and amino acids makes it a great antioxidant and overall oral health booster. Watermelon, on the other hand, is a rich source of calcium that helps strengthen teeth and prevent cavities. This toothpaste is a comprehensive solution for maintaining healthy teeth and a beautiful smile.
I have to say, to really see the effects of this toothpaste on cavities, you need to use it consistently for at least a year, I think. And ideally, you'd want teeth without cavities to begin with, but if you already have cavities, at least you'd want to prevent them from spreading to your healthy teeth.
xa0
💎Using the Grapefruit and Pineapple Strengthening Toothpaste💎:
The usual toothpaste routine, we all know it and follow it)
Apply a small amount of toothpaste to your toothbrush, brush your teeth in circular motions for 2-3 minutes, and then rinse your mouth with water.
Just your standard morning and evening oral care routine, business as usual)
xa0
💎Appearance, Consistency, and Scent of the Grapefruit and Pineapple Strengthening Toothpaste💎
The toothpaste has a thick consistency with a light pink hue, but it doesn't run or drip off your toothbrush when you squeeze it out) It kind of looks like a cream, actually. In terms of texture, it's similar to a diluted toothpowder, not entirely uniform, but with very gentle abrasive components! They're not noticeable while brushing, but they do a great job of cleaning your teeth!)
xa0
Grapefruit + Pineapple Strengthening Toothpaste by Doctor Fresh - Appearance and texture)
xa0
The scent of the toothpaste is very light, subtle, and slightly sweet)
The taste is sweet, minty, and citrusy, but not overpowering, and I didn't notice any melon flavor. There's also a weird note in the taste, like I mentioned before, that's similar to toothpaste. It's not a bad thing, it's just something I've noticed.

My oral health:
I have sensitive teeth, and sometimes when I use the wrong toothpaste, they get extremely sensitive. I have many teeth with fillings that are yellowing over time and are becoming noticeable. There are also signs of early tooth decay, and I'm hoping that this toothpaste will help prevent further development... I'd like to think so, anyway.
xa0
💎How I used and the effect of the Strengthening Toothpaste with Grapefruit and Melon💎:
xa0
I use this toothpaste with my husband, every morning and evening, just like any other toothpaste. We apply it to a wet toothbrush, add water, and brush our teeth in circular motions.
xa0
I brush my teeth for about a minute, making sure to clean not only my teeth and the space between them but also my gums and tongue. That's how I do it.
Foam formation, thanks to the lack of sulfates in this toothpaste, is a bit different from what I'm used to. The foam is thicker and more dense, with lots of tiny bubbles that are very close together. It's almost like a different kind of foam altogether.
Despite the lack of foam, this toothpaste cleans incredibly well - my teeth, tongue, and gums are all spotless. It even polishes my teeth a bit!
The abundance of foam isn't there, but that doesn't stop it from cleaning my entire mouth thoroughly.
xa0
Grapefruit + Watermelon Strengthening Toothpaste by Doctor Fresh - The foam is unusual: thick and effective.
xa0
My teeth look great after cleaning - they're shiny, polished, and the toothpaste hasn't caused any sensitivity, which is a huge plus! The buildup on my teeth is completely gone!
xa0
Grapefruit + Watermelon Strengthening Toothpaste by Doctor Fresh - My teeth after cleaning with this toothpaste.
The aftertaste from the toothpaste lingers for a pretty long time - about 30 minutes if I'm not eating or drinking anything. If I do, the aftertaste disappears, but the freshness in my mouth feels pretty good.
The menthol in the formula is balanced just right - it doesn't burn my mouth at all. I'm not a fan of those super fiery toothpastes...
Grapefruit + Watermelon Strengthening Toothpaste by Doctor Fresh - A Delicious Fruit Combination that Lingers After Brushing
After a morning brushing, I can feel the cleanliness of my teeth all day, even after eating and drinking.
Even in the evening, after brushing my teeth in the morning, my mouth still feels fresh and clean. This is super reassuring!
💎Strengthening Toothpaste with Grapefruit and Watermelon Usage💎:
A standard 75ml tube usually lasts my partner and me for about a month and a half. Considering the price of this toothpaste, I think it's a great value for money.
➕ Now, let's summarize the pros of the Grapefruit and Watermelon Strengthening Toothpaste ➕ :
💥The natural, healthy ingredients are a big plus.
💥It doesn't contain any harsh chemicals like fluoride, SLS, or SLES.
