Toothpaste is an oral paste that is used several times a day to clean the teeth and thus contribute to the hygiene of the oral cavity. It is effective in fighting dental plaque but also in chasing away bad breath. Some toothpastes also contain products to prevent dental diseases such as tooth decay or periodontitis. But toothpaste can be used for something else entirely.

Check out some of these other uses.

1 – MAKE Stubborn ODORS DISAPPEAR

Difficult to get rid of the smell of fish or onion on the skin. All you need to do is rub your hands with toothpaste which eliminates stubborn odors. Another possible use, toothpaste can be used to remove food odors from plastic kitchen containers.

2 – ON CHROME AND STAINLESS STEEL

Toothpaste can give your sinks and appliances a clean and shiny look. To polish everything, rub the surfaces with a cloth then give it a second polish with a clean cloth.

Please note: if you have doubts and are afraid that the toothpaste will damage certain materials, test on a small, inconspicuous area before starting.

3 – FOR COOLER PIPES

Despite our contortion efforts, there is always a little toothpaste left in the tube. To use it to the end, cut the end of the tube to pour hot water into it and pour the resulting contents into the pipes to remove bad odors.

4 – TO CLEAN BOTTLES AND THERMOS

Soap and water are not always enough to properly clean coffee bottles or thermoses which become damaged over time. The toothpaste will help remove the residue at the bottom of the bottle and stop the odors.

5 – ON TEA OR COFFEE STAINS

Since we’re talking about stains, note that toothpaste has no equal when it comes to fighting brownish coffee or tea stains that become encrusted when you have the misfortune of not cleaning your cup or it is constantly filled with delicious hot drinks. Toothpaste removes stains from our teeth, so why couldn’t it remove stains from our mugs after all? Toothpaste is also excellent for pre-treating stains on clothing before putting it in the washing machine.
