ARM & HAMMER TRULY RADIANT Clean & Fresh Toothpaste - Review

Arm & Hammer added a new toothpaste to their Truly Radiant oral care line in January 2016 called ARM & HAMMER TRULY RADIANT Clean & Fresh Toothpaste.  

"Powerful whitening cleansers give teeth a deep clean plus an invigorating surge of spearmint refreshment that lasts and lasts with every breath. 
• Cleans deep and strengthens enamel
• Whitens teeth with 4 different cleaning agents
• Crisp mint flavor for long-lasting fresh breath
• Fresh from the Dentist Feeling Clean "

I enjoy trying new oral care products, so I when Smiley360 offered me the opportunity to receive a complimentary tube to try and review I happily accepted.

I like how this toothpaste left my teeth feeling clean and my breath fresh, but only used it a few times because I didn't like it's strong spearmint flavor. I didn't have any noticeable whitening, but perhaps with extended use it would whiten more.
Since I don't like the taste of spearmint, I did check to see if this Clean & Fresh variety is available in other flavors, but was disappointed to find that it's only available in spearmint flavor. I wish it was available in peppermint or wintergreen flavors.
  

I decided to look at it's ingredients after noticing warnings on the packaging and saw that it contains Sorbitol and Sodium Saccharin - which I dislike because both are artificial sweeteners that can cause gastro-intestinal upset and other health risks. (Sorbitol is not only an artificial sweetener, it's also used medicinally as a potent, fast-acting stool softener). I'm assuming the warnings on the packaging about ingesting it are related to that. I did check the ingredients in a variety of several other brands of toothpaste and found both Sorbitol and Sodium Saccharin are used in many.

 

So because I didn't like the spearmint flavor and that it contains Sorbitol and Sodium Saccharin, I won't continue using this toothpaste. If it came in wintergreen or peppermint flavors and removed Sorbitol & Sodium Saccharin, I would consider purchasing & using it. I recommend this toothpaste to anyone who is interested in a deep cleaning & whitening toothpaste, doesn't mind it's artificial sweeteners, and likes the taste of spearmint.
