At the age of 3–6, not spitting out completely is the norm rather than the exception. This is why children's toothpastes for this age group are formulated differently from adult ones: the composition is chosen so that accidentally swallowing a small amount is not dangerous. The description of Rubella Beauty Dental Pro Kids 3–6 years explicitly lists safety if swallowed as one of the product's key features.
Nevertheless, a few practical rules remain important:
- Amount of toothpaste — for children of this age, a pea-sized amount, roughly the size of the nail on the little finger, is enough. Less toothpaste means less is swallowed, even if the child does not spit.
- Adult supervision — at 3–6, toothbrushing should be supervised: this helps both to dose the toothpaste correctly and to gradually teach the child to spit.
- Do not confuse it with adult toothpaste — products for adults are not intended for this age and should not be within the child's reach.
The toothpaste is not used in cases of hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients, and if an allergic reaction occurs, stop using it and consult a doctor. If the child has a history of allergic reactions, it is worth consulting a dentist before using any toothpaste.
