Ingesting a pea size amount of toothpaste is equivelent to drinking 8 oz of tap water! Go here: http://www.fluoridealert.org/ Get the professional statement: http://www.fluoridealert.org/prof-statement.pdf The publication in 2006 of a 500-page review of fluoride's toxicology by a distinguished panel appointed by the National Research Council of the National Academies (NRC, 2006). The NRC report concluded that the US Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) safe drinking water standard for "uoride (i.e. maximum contaminant level goal or MCLG) of 4 parts per million (ppm) is unsafe and should be lowered. Despite over 60 years of "uoridation, the report listed many basic research questions that have not been addressed. Still, the panel reviewed a large body of literature in which "uoride has a statistically signi!cant association with a wide range of adverse effects. These include an increased risk of bone fractures, decreased thyroid function, lowered IQ, arthritic-like conditions, dental "uorosis and, possibly, osteosarcoma. The average fluoride daily intakes (*) associated with many of these adverse effects are reached by some people consuming water at the concentration levels now used for fluoridation -- especially small children, above average water drinkers, diabetics, people with poor kidney function and other vulnerable subgroups. For example, the average "uoride daily intake associated with impaired thyroid function in people with iodine de!ciency (about 12% of the US population) is reached by small children with average consumption of "uoridated water at 1 ppm and by people of any age or weight with moderate to high "uoridated water consumption. Of special note among the animal studies is one in which rats fed water containing 1 ppm "uoride had an increased uptake of aluminum into the brain, with formation of beta-amyloid plaques, which is a classic marker of Alzheimer's disease pathology in humans. Considering the substantial variation in individual water intake, exposure to fluoride from many other sources, its accumulation in the bone and other calcifying tissues and the wide range of human sensitivity to any toxic substance, fluoridation provides NO margin of safety for many adverse effects, especially lowered thyroid function.

NOTHING. ive brushed me teeth with it and swallowed it and nothing.,
and ive eaten it plain and nothing.
not good for u, but wont harm u.

Obviously it won't harm you; it is used inside your mouth, the first stage of digestion. Therefore, a toothpaste-making company would not be so stupid as to make a substance - that is applied to such a sensitive area - cause harm when ingested. I've eaten it, and besides the horrid taste, nothing negative happens.
Yes, you can eat toothpaste but it's not good for you at all because of all the chemicals in it. If you eat too much toothpaste you could get very sick. I would recommend not eating toothpaste but yes, it technically is edible. Hope I helped :)
Yes, it can cause internal bleeding and may affect your digestive system. A small pea-sized amount would not be life-threatening, but eating more that that could definitely be a bad thing for your internal organs.
because, some toothpaste has chemicals that makes you tummy upset,
but if its childern toothpaste its okay if swallowed.. just not alot! :3
I think that ingesting excessive fluoride can lead to fluoride stains.
Because it's got fluoride in it which is poisonous in high amounts.
eww no you can not it would make you ill

No, using toothpaste to clean jewelry will not hurt the jewelry. It helps polish and restore shine. It is a very good method of cleaning jewelry and a lot of people do it.
The dentists toothpaste is for check-ups only. If you use to much it can hurt you because it is to strong. The dentists toothpaste is for check-ups only. If you use to much it can hurt you because it is to strong. look and see if you cvan answer it fkdjgbGFKJDGFJK
An elephant eating broccoli covered in toothpaste.
Yes, or you could go into hospital;L
Normal brush and toothpaste.
Toothpaste is non-toxic. Toothpaste contains fluoride, a chemical about which there are some (as yet inconclusive) concerns with regards to adding it to drinking water, but there is general agreement among the Dental community that the fluoride in toothpaste does not pose a health risk.
Swollen lips hurt while eating tomato sauce because of the citric acid in tomatoes. Just as it would hurt eating a pineapple.
I am not sure why you would want to, but as the mouth is much more sensitive than the breast I wouldn't think it would hurt.
yes
yes it will hurt. but it will be a good pain it will be fresh and mint; if, however, you use it to brush your teeth you may suffer an injury.
