Question: Is it bad or dangerous to eat toothpaste or is that just for babies!?
Answers:
it is not recommend to overdosing on fluoride as this will affect their adult teeth, that are forming as a baby/toddler, it can cause something called florousis, pitting and brown marks on teethWww@Answer-Health@Com

Toothpaste is not good to eat!. Swallowing a little bit won't kill you, but there are a few basic ingredients common to all toothpaste:

1) Fluoride!. It's poison in large amounts!.
2) Detergent!. This does nothing for your teeth, but it makes the toothpaste foam, and people like toothpaste that foams!.
3) Abrasives!. Think little bits of sand-type material that scrape your teeth!. It makes them whiter and gives them a shinier look!.

The rest of the ingredients vary!. Some natural toothpastes have seaweed, and some have sodium bicarbonate!.

You'd think that they'd made something that you put in your mouth non-dangerous!. But sadly that is not true!. The reason that the warning is aimed at children is because they hope that adults will have more sense than to choose to eat it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't think that toothpaste would be bad/dangerous if you ate it why would they invent something that would be entering your mouth and it was dangerous to eat it i sometimes eat a tiny bit because i left a little bit of the toothpaste in my mouthWww@Answer-Health@Com

too much fluoride is bad for anyone!. Although i think it would be hard for anyone over the age of 12 to ingest enough fluoride from toothpaste to make them sickWww@Answer-Health@Com

its fine in small amounts but too much can make you really sick!. a lot of vomiting and crampsWww@Answer-Health@Com
