The other brand you linked to may also me worth trying - as the spearmint flavour of the Tom's toothpaste maybe a bit too strong.
Fluoride aside, it is also quite difficult to get childrens toothpaste that doesn't contain some form of sweetner...
]]>THanks Barefoot Doc. Would the standard fluoride free toothpastes be okay for a baby, or would we really need to get the childrens stuff?
We just used to put a tiny amount of the ordinary fluoride free on a toothbrush when my kids were babies, i think one of the points of baby toothpaste is it should be fluoride free as even TPTB dont recommend fluoride for children under 2.
Here is another brand you may find in a chemist or supermarket or mail order.

The Burt's Bees line doesn't appear to have toothpaste - but the rest of it looks worth investigating. And the Tom's toothpaste looks just what I wanted. As for the sodium lauryl sulfate, I will have a look into it.Only other thing is, I wonder if it is even necessary to use toothpaste for babies. She has two teeth that are barely showing at the moment...

You can order it by clicking on the Drugstore.com link found on this page. Hopefully they deliver to the UK....
The only drawback I can think of is whether this product has sodium lauryl sulfate, the industrial foaming agent. Not sure what the ingredients are for this.
]]> Supposed to be all natural ingredients. Burts is a good brand. So in case you're interested:]]>Would also be wanting to buy some other products from them - so any suggestions would be good.
