Depending on the cause and degree of the burn different treatments should be used. In most cases running the affected area under RUNNING cold water for 10 minutes or until the affected area loses most of the burning pain sensation. Some people recommend that the area should then be wrapped in something to block infection, suitable materials are things like clingfilm or even a plastic shopping bag NOT any form of clothing or fabric as this will most likely stick into the burn and cause more problems later on, DO NOT use COTTON WOOL. This may be more for a third degree burn, but it may just be best to get immediate medical attention. No. For first and second degree burns run cold water over them. For third degree burns do not put them under cold water, seek emergency medical assistance immediately. Never put anything like toothpaste on a burn of any kind.

What do you do for a toothpaste burn on your skin?

It is possible that you have a problem with a particular brand of toothpaste, which perhaps has more peppermint flavoring than you really want; see if you can find another brand that you like better. If that doesn't help, you can consult your dentist.


Should it burn if You put toothpaste on my spots?

No. The best treatment for a minor burn is to hold it under cold (not ice) water for a few minutes. Never put tooth paste, butter, creams, or anything greasy on a burn, since it can actually hold the heat in, and cause even further discomfort or injury. Use only medications specifically made for burns. If the burn is bad enough that it blistered the skin, treat it with an approved OTC medication for burns, and keep a dry bandage on it until the blister begins to heal. If the burn is severe, you need to see a doctor immediately.
