While there are many things you can go without on a trip, a toothbrush isn't one of them. But depending on where you're going and how long you'll be staying, you might want to use something other than what you have at home.

So, what toothbrush should you pack? "Deciding between an electric toothbrush and a manual brush for travel will depend on personal preference and brush design — not all electric and manual toothbrushes are convenient for travel," says board-certified orthodontist Marina Gonchar, DMD.

We tested more than 40 toothbrushes over a six-month period to help you narrow it down, evaluating each for ease of use, functionality, portability, quality, and value. With insight from Dr. Gonchar and other dental professionals in mind, we researched travel-friendly options to round out our list.

Best Overall, Electric

Oral-b genius 9600 electric toothbrush.

• Ease of Use 4 /5
• Design 5 /5
• Functionality 5 /5
• Quality 5 /5

The Genius 9600 goes above and beyond to clean your teeth and boasts ample features, like multiple modes, Bluetooth connectivity, and a charging travel case.

It's slightly heavier than other electric models we tested, and since it comes with several parts, there's more to store at home.

Our favorite electric toothbrush is the Oral-B Genius 9600. Though it took us a moment to figure out how it works, we were thoroughly impressed by the feature-rich design. And once we got started, it was very straightforward and user-friendly. This toothbrush has multiple cleaning modes (regular, light, whitening, and tongue) that you can toggle between by tapping the handle. Our teeth felt exceptionally clean and slick after brushing, thanks to the round head that helps you get into every nook and cranny of your mouth. It also has Bluetooth connectivity for dental hygiene lovers who want to get super into tracking and improving their teeth-cleaning habits.

The Genius 9600 comes with various parts, including a corded charging stand, a suction holder for the toothbrush or your phone (for real-time feedback through the Oral-B app), and a hard-sided USB travel case. Though the travel case is undoubtedly handy for trips, the rest is kind of a lot to store at home.

This toothbrush is slightly heavier than other electric options but certainly not too heavy to pack in a suitcase. When you're away from home, you can charge both the toothbrush and your phone with the USB case. The rechargeable battery lasts about two weeks, so if you're going on a shorter trip, you might not even need to charge it while you're away. All things considered, we think the price is reasonable.

Best Overall, Runner-Up

Oral-b genius x limited.

• Ease of Use 5 /5
• Design 4.8 /5
• Value 4.8 /5

This advanced toothbrush makes your teeth feel professionally cleaned and comes with a charging travel case for on-the-go use.

The countertop charging stand tips over easily.

We were also big fans of the Oral-B Genius X Limited during our tests. The user-friendly design was easy to use right off the bat. It comes almost fully charged, so you could pack it in your suitcase without charging it first and start using it on your trip right away. This advanced toothbrush makes you feel like you just got your teeth professionally cleaned. It vibrates every 30 seconds to notify you when to switch to the next quadrant of your mouth, and a red light flashes if you brush too hard.

This toothbrush is also Bluetooth-enabled, so you can connect to Oral-B's app to track your habits. It lasts about two weeks on a full charge. Not only that, but it comes with a charging travel case that also charges your phone, plus a charging stand for at home. However, since it tips over easily when on the stand, you'll want to place it somewhat out of the way if possible. Beyond that, we have no complaints and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Genius X to travelers and, really, anyone else in the market for a new electric toothbrush.

Best Splurge

Philips sonicare prestige 9900 toothbrush.

The Sonicare 9900 Prestige looks, feels, and performs like a luxury product and comes with a sleek travel case that doubles as a charger.

It doesn't come with any replacement heads.

Want the Cadillac of toothbrushes? The Philips Sonicare 9900 Prestige won't disappoint. This high-end electric toothbrush looks, feels, and performs like a luxury product. Out of the box, it's about 40 percent charged and lasts roughly two weeks on a full charge. Despite the advanced design, it's very easy to use — just turn it on and select your preferred intensity setting. You can also sync it with the app to get real-time guidance and track your brushing habits.

The 9900 Prestige comes with a sleek frosted charging stand for your bathroom counter, plus an attractive faux leather travel case that looks like a high-end sunglasses case and charges your toothbrush via USB. Unlike many other models, it only comes with one head, and the replacements are up to $30 a pair. You'll definitely be glad to have this toothbrush with you on your next trip, but since it's a bit of an investment, consider using it as your everyday at-home toothbrush as well.

Oral-B iO Series 9

• Ease of Use 4.5 /5
• Design 4.2 /5
• Value 4.2 /5

This high-tech toothbrush gives you real-time guidance while brushing and makes your teeth feel as smooth as glass.

It needs to be charged weekly, whereas other electric models can last two or more weeks.

If you're interested in a smart toothbrush, the Oral-B iO Series 9 might be your best bet. Setup is a cinch — just download the Oral-B app and connect it through Bluetooth. The app tells you where you're brushing in real-time, how long you've been brushing, if you're using too much pressure, and when you miss a spot. (You can also use it without the app when you're short on time or once you feel like you've mastered your brushing habits.)

The iO Series 9 has seven modes, including daily clean, sensitive, super sensitive, intense, gum care, whitening, and tongue clean. After brushing, our teeth felt smooth as glass. It comes with a charging stand for at home and a magnetic charging case for travel. As with such a high-tech design, this toothbrush will need to be charged about once a week, whereas other models often last closer to two weeks. Still, it charges from zero to 100 percent in just three hours, and the remaining battery life is displayed right on the toothbrush, as well as on the app.

Best Features

Oral-b io series 8.

• Ease of Use 3.5 /5
• Design 3.8 /5
• Functionality 4.5 /5

The iO Series shows key info right on the handle and syncs with the Oral-B app to track your habits and score each brushing session.

It takes a little time to set up before your first use, and the high-tech design could be overkill, depending on where you're traveling.

The Oral-B iO Series 8 was also a hit during our tests. Though it took us some time to read through the instructions and set up the app before the first use, it was overall easy to use. The handle is sturdy but not too heavy or thick, with a battery life display, a built-in timer, and a light that glows red if you press too hard. You can track your brushing on the app and receive a score for each session. While the gamified aspect makes brushing fun, it might be overkill when traveling — but you always have the option to use it without the app.

This electric toothbrush comes with a countertop magnetic charging stand and a travel case that doubles as a charger. It has six modes you can easily toggle between, including daily clean, sensitive, super sensitive, intense, gum care, and whitening. Our teeth were noticeably cleaner after using it, and we didn't experience any sensitivity or discomfort. The price is steep, but we think it's worth the investment.

Best for Sensitive Teeth

Oral-b io series 5.

• Functionality 4.8 /5

This electric toothbrush has a soft-bristled head, multiple modes for sensitive teeth, and a light that tells you when you're brushing too hard.

It doesn't stop after two minutes like it's supposed to, and the travel case doesn't have a built-in charger.

Sensitive teeth? Go with the Oral-B iO Series 5. This electric toothbrush has a soft-bristle head that's gentle on the teeth and gums. It glows red when you press too hard, green when the pressure is just right, and white when you need a bit more elbow grease. We appreciate that it has multiple modes, including sensitive and extra sensitive, though you'll need to read through the instructions to know which one you've selected.

The iO Series 5 buzzes every 30 seconds, letting you know to switch quadrants, and according to the manual, it's supposed to stop after two minutes. However, while the light ring turns to a rainbow after two minutes, it doesn't actually shut off on its own. Still, we loved how easy it was to access all areas and angles of the mouth, and our teeth felt exceptionally clean after each brushing session. This toothbrush comes with a countertop charger and a travel case. Though the case doesn't have a built-in charger, the battery lasts up to two weeks, so you might not have to charge it while you're away.

Best Overall, Manual

Marvis soft toothbrush.

• Comfort 4.7 /5
• Value 4.5 /5

This Italian-made toothbrush boasts a lightweight handle, soft nylon bristles, and a handy head cover for travel.

The bristles aren't contoured like some other manual models.

If you prefer to keep it simple while traveling, a manual toothbrush will suffice. Our favorite packable option is the Marvis White Soft Toothbrush. From the popular luxury toothpaste brand, this Italian-made product features a slim, lightweight acrylic handle. It'll take up minimal space in your toiletry kit and add almost nothing to your luggage weight.

As for the head, you're looking at soft nylon bristles that gently polish your teeth clean. The bristles aren't contoured like some other models, but they definitely get the job done without irritating your gums. We also appreciate that it comes with a head cover to keep it clean and prevent the bristles from crushing in your suitcase.

The Details: Manual | Soft bristles | Lightweight handle, head cover

Curaprox 5460 Ultra Soft Toothbrush, 3 Pack

• Comfort 5 /5

Each toothbrush has over 5,000 and densely packed, soft bristles that gently polish your teeth without irritating your gums.

They don't come with head covers or a travel case.

For the most bang for your buck, consider this three-pack from Curaprox. These Swiss toothbrushes feature over five thousand densely packed, ultra-soft bristles that promise to gently clean your teeth and protect your gums.

The handles are angled to help you reach every nook and cranny of your mouth. They're also lightweight, which is perfect for travel. Just a heads up, these toothbrushes don't come with head covers, so you'll have to buy those separately.

The Details: Manual | Soft bristles | Slim, lightweight handle

Best Foldable

Lingito folding travel toothbrush.

It folds into itself to become a more packable size while keeping the bristles clean and protected from smushing.

The bristles might not be soft enough for people with sensitive gums.

You might also consider a foldable design, like the Lingito Travel Toothbrush. It folds down into itself, decreasing its size by half. This makes it super travel-friendly while keeping the bristles clean and protecting them from getting smashed.

The grippy handle is easy to hold, and the bristles do an excellent job of cleaning your teeth. Though they might not be soft enough for people with sensitive teeth, the bristles aren't overly stiff or pokey.

The Details: Manual | Medium bristles | Built-in cover

Reach Ultraclean Travel Toothbrush Kit

This handy kit comes with a soft-bristled toothbrush with an antibacterial cap, plus TSA-approved travel-size toothpaste.

The bristles warp pretty quickly.

This on-the-go dental kit comes with a manual toothbrush and a travel-size tube of toothpaste. The toothbrush has soft angled bristles that get into all the contours of your teeth. It also has an antibacterial cap that keeps bacteria at bay while protecting the bristles from getting crushed.

The tiny toothpaste is well below the TSA limit for carry-on liquids, but it should still be enough to get you through about a week of twice-a-day brushing. And the included pouch helps you keep everything organized and accessible.

The Details: Manual | Soft bristles | Disposable with TSA-size toothpaste

Best Disposable

Patelai disposable toothbrushes.

Each toothbrush is individually wrapped, so you'll always have a fresh one to pack for a trip.

They're not as eco-friendly as longer-lasting toothbrushes.

Disposable toothbrushes can come in handy if you travel often. This set comes with 100 or 200 individually wrapped toothbrushes. It includes four colors, so you can differentiate whose is whose when traveling with family members.

Though the toothbrushes don't have caps, you don't really need them. You'll always have a fresh one ready to pack, and you don't have to bother with bringing it home. Of course, this isn't the most eco-friendly option, but it's certainly convenient.

Other Travel Toothbrushes We Liked

Quip Electric Toothbrush : This electric toothbrush is lightweight, easy to hold, and about the size of a manual model. It runs on AAA batteries, so you never have to charge it, but taking it apart to replace the batteries is a bit of a struggle.

Oral-B Smart Limited Rechargeable Toothbrush : This high-tech electric toothbrush makes brushing a fun, enjoyable experience. Unfortunately, the motion sensor on the one we tried was pretty inaccurate, detecting the wrong areas of the mouth and continuously telling us we weren't brushing well enough.

We consulted Marc Schlenoff, DDS, FAGD for tips on selecting travel toothbrushes and guidance for testing them out. Next, we chose upwards of 40 models to try firsthand for an ongoing, six-month testing period. After unboxing the toothbrushes, reading through the instructions, and connecting to the apps (if applicable), we tried them out on our own teeth.

We noted the size and feel of the handles, whether the controls were intuitive, what features were useful (or unnecessary), how the bristles felt on our teeth and gums, and how clean our teeth felt after each session. Each model was rated for ease of use, functionality, portability, quality, and overall value. We featured the highest-scoring toothbrushes here and researched additional travel-friendly options to round out our list.

Tips for Buying a Travel Toothbrush

Decide whether you want something manual or electric.

According to research, electric toothbrushes clean your teeth much better than the manual variety, efficiently polishing away plaque and helping prevent gum disease. Plus, most have built-in timers, which make it easier to brush for the full two minutes, as recommended by dentists. Those with a dedicated dental hygiene routine might want to bring an electric toothbrush on trips, but it's definitely okay to go the manual route for a few days if that makes more sense for packing.

"I've never seen a hotel toothbrush I actually liked," says board-certified endodontist Alexa Martin, DMD, who often travels with an electric model. "Treat yourself and put on a new toothbrush head before you go — it'll feel like a small luxury indulgence."

Choose the right brush head 

When buying a travel toothbrush, pay attention to the shape, size, and softness of the brush head. "The bristles should be soft to medium to avoid abrasion of the tooth enamel and gum recession," says Dr. Gonchar, adding that angled bristles help remove plaque around the gum line. "A smaller brush head will allow for easier maneuverability around the back molars and front lower teeth, which are challenging to reach."

Yes, you can take an electric toothbrush on an airplane. Though airlines don't allow spare lithium-ion batteries, it's okay when they're installed within a device — the same goes for things like laptops and massage guns. "Your electric toothbrush can be in your checked bag or your carry-on," says Dr. Martin.

It depends on the type. Manual travel toothbrushes are often just a few dollars, and disposable options can come out to pennies per piece. Electric toothbrushes, on the other hand, often cost $100 or more — sometimes even north of $200.

If you're partial to the electric variety, consider investing in a nice one you can use at home as well as on the go — preferably something with a charging travel case.

You can absolutely use your regular toothbrush on trips. If you have a committed brushing regimen with your electric toothbrush, by all means, bring it with you when you travel. "Make it easy for yourself, and stick to your normal routine," says Dr. Martin.

Most toothbrushes can be used for up to three months (the same goes for the replaceable heads on electric models). However, disposable toothbrushes and other relatively flimsy designs may not hold up as long. Beyond durability, it's important to make sure the bristles stay clean and dry to prevent bacteria growth. This can sometimes be hard when you have to pack your toothbrush right after using it.

13 Best Toothpastes for Air Travel

• Travel Gear
• 13 Best Toothpastes for Air…

While you’re traveling by plane without a checked bag, there’s only one way to bring your toiletries: in your carry-on bag. However, based on TSA rules, you’re not allowed to bring liquids such as shampoo, soap, lotion, and even toothpaste more than 3.4oz (100ml). And this is why toothpaste for air travel in small sizes is so convenient, especially when you have a long flight or more than one transit. Toothpaste for air travel is made to easily fit into your carry-on bag.

Brushing your teeth with toothpaste is important for your health. It helps remove plaque and harmful bacteria that cause cavities, while giving you fresh breath. It’s easy to forget about taking care of your oral health while you’re traveling, especially with the temptations from local sweets, coffee, and cocktails. Then, you tend to just go to bed without brushing your teeth after a long day of food adventure. Having travel toothpaste and an electric toothbrush on the go, you can always count on making a good impression in all kinds of situations.

How to Choose the Best Toothpaste for Air Travel

You can still maintain good oral hygiene with the best toothpaste plane travel. A good travel toothpaste can keep your teeth and gums clean and fresh. With so many options available, it can be a bit confusing to choose one. To help you decide, we have a few things you can consider before buying one.

Paste, powder, or tablet?

Most kinds of toothpaste for air travel in the market are either gel or paste. It’s a traditional form of toothpaste. Gels create a smooth and creamy texture, while paste forms a thick and foamy texture. Both have abrasives that are used to help remove plaque and debris. However, a paste is slightly more abrasive than gel, simply because of its ingredients.

Other than these traditional forms, there are also tooth powder and toothpaste tablets. These are designed as dry toothpaste for travel. Unlike gel and paste, toothpowder requires water to brush your teeth. To use it, wet your toothbrush and sprinkle toothpowder onto it. Like toothpowder, toothpaste tablets can be alternative to traditional toothpaste. Besides, both are more practical and sustainable. What’s more, most of them are free of chemicals and preservatives.

There are five major types of toothpaste: whitening toothpaste, sensitive teeth toothpaste, herbal toothpaste, tartar toothpaste, and children’s toothpaste. Whitening toothpaste contains an abrasive cleaner that helps eliminate or reduce stains caused by coffee, tea, smoke, and soft drink. It’s not advisable to use a whitening toothpaste for a long period because it can wear down teeth enamel.

As for those with sensitive teeth and gums, you may consider the sensitive teeth toothpaste. Generally, this type of toothpaste contains potassium nitrate to minimize the pain. Meanwhile, herbal toothpaste is perfect for those who are sensitive to the ingredients in regular toothpaste or those who prefer natural alternatives. However, most herbal toothpaste doesn’t contain fluoride, which is highly recommended by the dentist to protect enamel and strengthen teeth.

Tartar or hardened plaque toothpaste contains sodium hexametaphosphate and sodium pyrophosphate. These ingredients prevent the formation of tartar and keep stains and tartar from forming above your gum line.

The last type of toothpaste is children’s toothpaste. This type contains no fluoride to minimize the risks of your kids swallowing too much fluoride. What’s more, it has fewer abrasive and is mostly candy-flavored.

Toothpaste flavors

For so many years, toothpaste has only limited flavor choice, either it’s mint, spearmint, and peppermint flavor. Nowadays, there’s a taste for everyone. You can find toothpaste in fruit flavors like peach or apricot, even in spicy flavors like cinnamon-clove or fennel. Choosing toothpaste for air travel can be your best option if you’re interested in trying a new flavor. If you don’t like it, you won’t be wasting the whole tube of toothpaste.

Does toothpaste count as a liquid?

Yes, it does. TSA counts all gels, aerosol, pastes, and creams as liquids. To avoid having to throw away entire bottles of your favorite toiletries, make sure you get familiar with the TSA’s liquids rule.

Can I bring toothpaste in my carry-on?

Yes, you can. However, make sure it meets the TSA requirement for liquids, gels, and aerosol, which is a maximum of 3.4oz (100ml). This includes other travel items such as shampoo, soap, mouthwash, conditioner, and lotion.

Can you take 4 oz toothpaste on a plane?

Unfortunately, you can’t. You may only carry on liquids and gels for a maximum of 3.4oz (100ml) or smaller. As alternative travel toothpaste, you can bring dry toothpaste for travel like toothpowder or toothpaste tablets, where the 3.4oz (100ml) rule doesn’t apply.

Where do I put my toiletries when flying?

If you bring travel-size toiletries such as shampoo, toothpaste, or lotion no more than 3.4oz (100 ml), you can put them in your toiletry bags and in your carry-on. On the other hand, if you bring a large bottle of soap, shampoo, or full-size toothpaste, you should pack them in the checked bags instead.

If you’re someone who frequently travels, packing and repacking your toothbrush might become an issue. If not packed properly, your toothbrush can come in contact with all the other things in your bag, leaving it filled with germs and all sorts of other matter that you don’t want to end up in your mouth.

Before we dive into our top choices for travel toothbrushes, let’s take a peek at what you should consider in your search for the perfect toothbrush for traveling.

Hundreds of top-tier travel toothbrushes will make maintaining your oral hygiene on the go easier than ever. Before we explore which options are our favorites, let’s look at what should be the determining factors when choosing the perfect travel toothbrush.

Size and portability should be considered first and foremost when choosing the right toothbrush. For example, if you travel with a full-size travel cosmetic bag, you can choose a full-size toothbrush . On the other hand, some travelers prefer a minimalist style of packing. If that’s the case for you, selecting a compact or smaller size may work best for your packing needs.

Manual or Electric

If you already have an electric toothbrush at home, you might feel like a manual toothbrush for traveling feels like a downgrade . This is understandable since electric toothbrushes are proven to control tooth decay better.

Hot Tip: Keep in mind that if you’re planning a long-term travel experience, it might be appropriate to pack something that doesn’t need batteries or charging.

Dual Voltage

Even if you’re planning to stay in 1 country on your journey, it’s still a good idea to find a toothbrush that can adjust to different voltages. This is important, especially if you’re traveling to a place that has a higher voltage than what you’re accustomed to.

Some of the newer toothbrushes come with a dual-voltage option that automatically adjusts according to the power outlet they’re plugged into , which makes traveling much easier. If your toothbrush doesn’t have this feature, make sure you pack a voltage converter as well.

The ever-popular folding travel toothbrush is a travel enthusiast’s favorite . When assembled, the design takes up half the space of a standard-sized toothbrush without sacrificing the comfort of use when fully expanded.

Many of the best folding toothbrushes come with a carrying case that closes tightly to keep your bristles clean and bacteria-free.

The battery is one of the most important factors to consider when it comes to electric toothbrushes. Ideally, you want a toothbrush that is rechargeable and can last a week or 2 on a single charge . Battery-operated toothbrushes are not as appealing as rechargeable ones, but they are often cheaper.

Antimicrobial Properties

Picking a toothbrush with antimicrobial properties is key, particularly if you pitch your toothbrush into the depths of your toiletry bag when you come and go.

Antimicrobial strands hinder bacterial growth between uses , keeping your mouth as healthy as possible.

Bristle Variety

There are 3 options for toothbrush bristles: soft, medium, and hard. Most people prefer a medium-bristle toothbrush . If you have a tendency to brush your teeth forcefully, you might want to choose a softer bristle to help protect your gums and enamel.

Pay attention to the bristle material when picking a new travel toothbrush. Nylon bristles are the most common, but if you have sensitive gums, doctors suggest opting for a toothbrush with softer bristles like polyester.

Hot Tip: Check out our guides to the best travel toiletry bags for men and women , as well as the best travel Dopp kits for men .

Using a Travel Toothbrush to Brush on The Go

Brush Teeth While Traveling

Other tips for oral care on the go.

Even when you’re traveling, you can still maintain a consistent oral care routine. A travel toothbrush is essential. You can find many types of folding or two-piece toothbrushes that serve as their own travel toothbrush holders, which is especially helpful if you have limited space.

Many people keep some sort of travel toothbrush, along with a travel-sized tube of toothpaste and a small container of dental floss, in their purse, brief case, coat pocket, or office desk drawer. It’s also smart to make sure you have one in your carry-on bag as well, in case you get stranded. And keeping your travel toothbrush kit stocked with these items will make sure they’re ready to go when you are. If you are looking for an electric toothbrush to travel with, check out our  Oral-B Genius electric toothbrushes . They have travel cases that can charge your smartphone and also come with a mirror cling to hold your smartphone in place when brushing your teeth with the Oral-B app.

Remember, even if you don’t have toothpaste, wetting the brush and brushing with water is better than nothing.

Chew gum.  If food and water are scarce on a trip, bring a pack of sugarless gum with you. Airplane travel can contribute to a dry mouth , which can promote  tooth decay . Chewing sugarless gum. will help restore the saliva in your mouth, which can help rinse away excess bacteria.

Snack right.  If you’re stranded at the airport or a budget hotel with nothing but selections from a vending machine to sustain you, your teeth will thank you if you choose peanuts over pretzels or candy. Some evidence suggests that nuts might help protect tooth enamel from plaque by neutralizing acids in the mouth and providing a dose of healthy minerals such as phosphorus. Pretzels may sound like a healthy snack choice, but they are more likely than nuts to get caught between the teeth, and they contain more of the fermentable carbohydrates that can foster the growth of bacteria in your mouth, especially if you are on the go and you won’t be able to brush your teeth for a while.

Floss When You Can. One of the easiest ways to maintain oral care on the go is to carry a  small container of floss  with you. If you’re hiking or camping and want to travel light, floss takes up less space than your electric flosser. Soft flosses can be used by anyone. They slide easily between the teeth to make flossing faster and easier.

Schedule a Checkup.  Schedule a checkup with your dental professional before you go. The last thing you want is a dental health problem to occur when you are far from reliable dental care. Problems can still occur, but you can reduce the risk by being as prepared as you can before you travel.

Types of Toothpaste

Keep up with a good oral care routine.

These days, you may feel overwhelmed by the  types of toothpastes available at your grocery store or pharmacy. Just remember,  the best toothpaste for you is the one you like well enough to use every day.

Of course, you can buy a few different types for variety, or to suit the tastes and needs of your family members. Today, there are toothpastes to meet the oral care needs of virtually everybody, and you can’t really go wrong with any toothpaste that has the seal of the American Dental Association.

That said, some toothpastes do offer specific benefits in addition to cleaning teeth.

Our Most Popular Electric Toothbrush for Daily Brushing

Each type of toothpaste has its own unique benefits. Some specialty types of toothpaste include:

• Antimicrobial: Antimicrobial toothpastes may contain stannous fluoride, an antibacterial agent that also provides anti-cavity and sensitivity benefits.
• Tartar control:  Tartar-control toothpastes may contain sodium pyrophosphate which helps to keep tartar from forming on teeth or better yet, sodium hexametaphosphate, which helps prevent tartar and stains, above the gum line. But if you already have stubborn tartar, tartar control toothpaste won’t remove it––you’ll need a professional cleaning from your dental professional.
• Whitening:  Whitening toothpastes contain chemical or abrasive ingredients to help remove and/or prevent stains from forming on the teeth. When used regularly, whitening toothpastes can reduce the appearance of stains and make your teeth look whiter.

No matter which toothpaste you’re brushing with, it’s important to maintain a thorough oral care regiment to ensure your teeth and gums stay healthy:

• Brush teeth at least twice a day with the Oral-B iO Series 9 Rechargeable Toothbrush . Its dentist-inspired round brush head expertly cleans with micro-vibrations to remove more plaque than a manual brush.
• Floss at least once a day to remove more plaque and debris from tight spaces. The Oral-B Pro-Health Advanced Floss slides up to 50% more easily in tight spaces than other types of floss. To further improve your gum health, supplement your regular flossing routine with the Oral-B Water Flosser Advanced , its unique Oxyjet Technology helps eliminate more plaque bacteria* for healthier gums.
• Swish with a rinse containing Cetylpyridinium Chloride (CPC), like Crest Pro-Health Multi-Protection Mouthwash which helps protect your mouth from gingivitis and plaque with 0% alcohol.

* Helps reduce plaque bacteria and inflammatory components associated with gingivitis, when used as an adjunct to brushing, flossing and regular professional care.

Cool. Refreshing. Invigorating. A classic mint flavor that’s anything but ordinary. This power-packed travel size toothpaste trades fluoride for nano-hydroxyapatite (n-Ha) to remineralize & fortify teeth with every brush. It freshens breath, whitens teeth, and even helps close holes on enamel that can cause tooth sensitivity. Now that’s something to smile about.

• Soothing aloe vera

• Bacteria-fighting xylitol

• Antioxidant-rich green tea

• Refreshing mint

The power of n-Ha

Nano-hydroxyapatite (n-Ha) is a form of calcium that makes up 97% of your tooth enamel and 70% of your dentin. Because it comprises the primary foundation of teeth and bones, it's restorative for your smile.

First used by NASA astronauts in space, n-Ha rebuilds teeth without the toxins found in fluoride, making it safe to swallow. (And if it’s good enough for space missions, it’s good enough for us.)

Do your dentist proud.

Our Science

Boka Toothpaste is unlike any other toothpaste, by design. It trades fluoride for nano-hydroxyapatite (n-Ha), an evolution in dentistry that’s been a gold standard in Japan for over 40-years. n-Ha makes up the primary foundation of teeth and bones, meaning it’s naturally restorative and helpful in reducing sensitivity. Plus, it’s 100% biocompatible and non-toxic. We complement this powerful ingredient with soothing aloe vera, bacteria-fighting xylitol, antioxidant-rich green tea and refreshing mint. It’s our way to address the “silent epidemic” in healthcare.
