Toothpaste tablets are designed to be effective at cleaning your teeth, freshen breath, and prevent cavities just like regular toothpaste.

The key to any toothpaste comes from its formulation which includes:

Important ingredients like these can be found in both traditional toothpaste and toothpaste tablets.

This article will explain everything you need to know about toothpaste tablets and their efficacy. 

What are toothpaste tablets?

Chewable toothpaste tablets are the best alternative to traditional tube toothpaste.

They are a waterless, dehydrated version of traditional toothpaste compressed into properly portioned tablets.

Because of this compressing process, toothpaste tablets are small and convenient to use.

Plus, they are a more environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative to regular toothpaste as they don't require plastic packaging. 

Key Ingredients

NOBS Toothpaste Tablets

Toothpaste tablets contain similar key ingredients to traditional toothpastes. For example, a good toothpaste should include ingredients that fall into these categories:

  • Remineralizing agents

  • Polishing agents

  • Anti-plaque agents

All of these ingredients work together to provide you with great oral care benefits.

Be careful though - not all tablet toothpaste contains these ingredients!

Thankfully, NOBS Toothpaste Tablets do though.

Remineralizing Agents

Remineralizing agents, such as nano hydroxyapatite and calcium carbonate, are included in your toothpaste to help rebuild enamel and fight tooth decay.

Polishing agents

Polishing agents, such as sodium bicarbonate, are included to gently remove surface stains and plaque from your teeth.

Anti-plaque agents

Anti-plaque agents, such as zinc citrate, are included in your toothpaste to help fight plaque buildup and support a healthy oral microbiome.

How do toothpaste tablets work?

Also known as toothpaste pills, tablet toothpaste works similarly to traditional toothpaste after being chewed. How to use them is simple.

For example, when combined with water and chewed, toothpaste tablets form into a foamy paste that you can then use to brush your teeth. This paste has all of the health benefits of traditional toothpaste.

After brushing for two minutes, you can spit out the paste, but rinsing is optional. It's okay to leave toothpaste tablets overnight on your teeth, as long as they're not too abrasive and don't contain fluoride.

Toothpaste Tablets vs Toothpaste


When it comes to differentiating between toothpaste tablets and toothpaste, hydroxyapatite toothpaste tablets offer significant advantages over your traditional fluoride toothpaste across a ton of categories:

  • Safe and effective
  • Convenience & Travel

  • Sustainability

  • Dosage

  • Shelf Life

Overall, toothpaste tablets are just as effective as traditional toothpaste and offer unique oral health benefits.

Convenience & Travel

Nano hydroxyapatite toothpaste tablets take up less space than traditional toothpaste and are far less messy.

Not only are they highly portable, but they also won't explode all over your suitcase and clothes - ideal for frequent travelers and those on the go!

Switching to tablets is a great move for the environment!

Dosage

A single toothpaste tablet comes pre-dosed with the perfect amount of product, ensuring nothing gets wasted.

Shelf Life

Because they're dehydrated, toothpaste tablets last longer than traditional paste. They don't expire as quickly and are less prone to bacteria buildup.

Summary: Do toothpaste tablets work?

Yes, toothpaste tablets work.

When chewed, your toothpaste tablets will turn into a traditional toothpaste that you can then use to brush your teeth.

This non fluoride toothpaste includes all of the ingredients that your body needs for proper oral health such as nano hydroxyapatite and zinc citrate.

Overall, toothpaste tablets represent a great alternative to tube toothpaste. Once you make the switch, you won't go back!
