Description
Not sure which toothpaste to use for first teeth? NHS guidance for under-3s is a smear of toothpaste with at least 1000ppm fluoride, twice a day, from the first tooth. OHP 1000ppm is made for exactly that, with a mild mint taste.
It's the toothpaste used in NHS Scotland's Childsmile programme. It's sugar-free and paraben-free, suits vegetarian, vegan and halal diets, and comes in a 100ml tube. When your child turns 3, it's time to move up to OHP 1450ppm.

Growing up
Ready to move up at 3
From age 3, NHS guidance moves to a pea-sized amount of 1350–1500ppm fluoride toothpaste, twice a day. That's the time to switch to OHP 1450ppm, which suits children from 3 and adults too.
See it in action
- Use a smear Put a thin smear of toothpaste on a soft baby toothbrush, from the very first tooth.
- Brush twice a day Brush all surfaces of the teeth, front and back, twice every day.
- Spit, don't rinse Help your child spit out the extra. Not rinsing leaves the fluoride on the teeth to keep working.

Questions about this product
How much should I use for under-3s?
Just a smear, twice a day, from the first tooth. That follows NHS guidance for children under 3.
When should we move to OHP 1450ppm?
From age 3, NHS guidance moves to a pea-sized amount of toothpaste with 1350–1500ppm fluoride. That's the time to switch to OHP 1450ppm.
Why should my child spit and not rinse?
Rinsing straight after brushing washes the fluoride away. Spitting out the extra and not rinsing leaves the fluoride on the teeth for longer, which is what NHS guidance recommends.
Which OHP toothpaste is right for my child?
Under 3: OHP 1000ppm, a smear twice a day. From 3, and for adults: OHP 1450ppm, a pea-sized amount twice a day. Both follow NHS guidance on fluoride strength.
Is it vegetarian and vegan?
Yes. It suits vegetarian, vegan and halal diets, and it's sugar-free and paraben-free.
Is this the toothpaste from Childsmile?
Yes. OHP toothpaste is used in NHS Scotland's Childsmile programme, so if your child already uses it, this is the same toothpaste.
