Yes it can! I used it for a pimple and didn't know not to leave it on over night. I also didn't know that you're not suppose to use the gel type and non-whitening etc. Please just use regular paste.
So I left it on and the next day my skin wasn't necessarily burned like you get from fire. But there were some dry red patches of skin where I had the toothpaste. It was gross it made my skin look wrinkled and patchy.
I tried everything! Intense moisturizer, trying to rub it off, I couldn't cover it with make-up and someone suggested milk because it absorbs the fluoride but I think it was too late for that nothing worked.
I feel it is my duty to post this so everyone can see it cause I used Neosporin as suggested by someone else and IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!! overnight! I swear this morning the dry patchy skin just peeled off like it was a sunburn. Thank goodness. I really hope this helps anyone else out there that has this problem.

How do you apply toothpaste to your face when trying to get rid of pimples?
Toothpaste is only good for pimples on your face. It dries them out. Toothpaste is not good for the skin. If you do use toothpaste for your pimples use white or clear toothpaste. Colored toothpaste will stain your face and make your face the color of the toothpaste for days. Also only put the toothpaste on the pimple. Not on your entire face. It will burn you until your eyes start to water if you do. Also be sure to not leave the toothpaste on for more than 5 minutes or else strong burning will occur.
At what time of day should you put toothpaste on your breasts if you want to increase their size?
The idea that applying toothpaste to the breast skin could cause breast growth arose because modern toothpastes include ingredients which irritate the skin when used in this way. Substances such as menthol and fluoride not only cause irritation to the skin but can lead to inflammation and even swelling, which unfortunately can be mistaken for signs of breast growth. It would of course be very useful if a common household item such as toothpaste could really help promote breast growth, but unfortunately not only does toothpaste not contain any ingredient useful for breast development, applying it to the skin can actually cause damage to the skin if it is left there for a period of time, such as overnight. The skin can be severely irritated, but even worse it can also be dried out to such an extent that the place where the toothpaste was applied can look scarred as though a burn had been suffered there.
