Best European Toothpaste Brands

Europeans have a tendency to approach everything with a bit of flair, and that extends to brushing their teeth. Unlike here at home, there are more than just minty flavors across the pond. Check out these refreshing — and delicious — toothpastes next time you’re in town.

Marvis has been one of the top toothpaste producers in Italy for more than 60 years. The fashionable tube goes with any bathroom décor, and the funky flavors make it a true standout. Why opt for that herbal mint aftertaste when you can brush your teeth with licorice? They also have a mango-flavored paste if you’re feeling fruity.

Fancy flossing your gums with crushed insects? That’s exactly what you’ll find in a tube of Email Diamant. The French toothpaste brand has an ingredient called cochineal carmine, a red dye made from the insides of insects. It sounds disgusting, but you’ll never experience a cleaner-feeling mouth than after trying it.

Contrary to popular belief the Brits do actually brush their teeth. And they do it exceedingly well with Euthymol. This little-known toothpaste brand has made waves over the last two years in the United Kingdom and gained a dedicated fan base who rave about its thyme-infused flavor and fresh, clean feeling. If you can get past the bright pink color of the paste, you’re in for a real treat. Luckily, you can buy it at home through Amazon.
