Is it a good idea to brush your teeth with soap if you run out of toothpaste?

No, it’s definitely not! Even if it’s not toxic, it doesn’t have the stuff they put in toothpaste (I forgot what it’s called) that your teeth need to last.

exactlly!!!

if you want good advice listen to this GO BUY TOOTH PASTE AT THE STORE WHEN YOU RUN OUT TRUST ME

i know lol

salt is better if you run out,

I would think Not.

No no no

I’ve brushed my teeth with soap for years and I have absolutely no cavities and very white teeth, I just simply take calcium supplaments and I guess that compensates for the lack of flouride.

Like, actual soap? Doesn’t that taste awful? Why did you start doing that, just wondering?

i didn’t the q just came to me

i didn’t brush my teeth with soap the question just came to me

I don’t suppose it will hurt occasionally, don’t think I would fancy it.

I remember my mother telling me that if I swore, she would wash my mouth out with soap. Can’t be a nice experience if it can be used as a punishment.

Umm I def wouldn’t!!

Its like saying I ran out of shampoo, so can I use body wash… which would make your hair greasy.

No! Trust me, of all the very few times of which my mom made me brush with soap all these years is cruel, btw fyi my mom made/makes me actually brush with soap, so much worse than just holding it in my mouth, the tastes lasts longer, it’s just awful >.<

looolxD! dats a funny question but hell no it would taste like crap!

Ok ninja, the correct answer to this isn’t no, but HELL NO!!! LOL Yeah, definitely not a great idea, that. Nowadays washing a child’s mouth out with soap is considered abuse, so if you brushed your teeth with soap it might be considered suicidal or stupid. Just saying.

nah probably not because idk it’s just not good for your teeth.

If you have no toothpaste, baking soda, ect. I’d just go with warm water. Hopefully you didn’t run out of mouthwash cause you may want to use it. Well, if you have some, brush with it!! Better than nothin.

No I wouldn’t!!!!!!

Its fine. Seriously, it wont hurt. No, its not ideal because it doesnt have fluoride in it, not to mention it tastes like crap, but essentially, it has the same surfactants etc in it as soap. It wouldnt be my first choice, but if there was nothing else, it wont hurt.

Almost like if you run out of TP on a camping trip and decide instead to wipe with the first thing closest to you and it ends up being poison ivy. Whoa!!! LOL

eurghh no!

I dont think thatz a smart idea
