So I was at Wal-Mart today, and I was in the need for some new toothpaste and I noticed that they had Crest toothpastes where you get 2-for-1 for $4. I thought it seemed like a pretty good deal. I noticed a 2-for-1 from Crest that had Scope with it (Scope in the toothpaste, not the toothpaste and Scope separately). As I was looking at it, I noticed that it wasn't ADA approved, so I didn't buy it.

I almost always buy Colgate Total which is ADA approved, so I hadn't noticed until I started looking, that there is actually quite a bit of toothpastes that aren't ADA approved. Why are some toothpastes not ADA approved?

In the end, I avoided buying it (and as I was looking, I noticed that ALL Crest toothpastes that contain Scope aren't ADA approved) and found "Crest Extra Whitening w/ Tartar Protection" instead because it was 2-for-1 and ADA approved... well I learned the hard way to not be so cheap, because after using it, I already miss Colgate Total.
