Common questions

Is Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste healthy?

Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste?

Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste lists 12 ingredients, starting with Spring Water, Sodium Fluoride, Cellulose Gum, Natural Vanilla Flavor and Trisodium Phosphate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste?

Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste compare to other toothpaste?
