Elmex isn’t European anymore. It was founded in Switzerland, but was acquired by the American company Colgate-Palmolive in 2004.
And Sensodyne is the opposite, I think. Started as American.
Yes you’re right. A British company acquired the American company Block Drug in 2001.
Sensodyne supremacy!
I might be misremembering, but I don’t think you’re supposed to use Sensodyne every time you brush. Read the packaging, but I think it says to use it like every other day or something.
I massively appreciate all these memes highlighting American products.
Either I feel good that I’ve already fluked into buying more locally.
Or I realise I can do better, and I’m provided some alternatives.Same. So much focus is going towards moving people from tech giants, which are important, but so much harder to move away from. Smaller things like this still make a difference and are far more easier for people to switch from than say, youtube for example.
In Italy, pasta del capitano
Oxygenol = Finnish

For another morsel of information.
My current toothpaste is rated at 125
Bring back the original Parodontax flavor!
I brush my teeth the German way:
Morgens Aronal abends Elmex.
As a German I do this too.
Any EU maker of electric toothbrushes?
How about Philips, they are from the Netherlands afaik.
Overpriced brush heads, but 3rd party isn’t hard to find.
If it is like Philips Hue, they sold the brand long ago for Chinese manufacturers to use.
mhm it seems that the Philips Personal Health division has two location, one near Eindhoven, Netherlands and one in the USA.

I use sodium bicarbonate with a dash of lemon juice and a finger.
I use Brasso. I apply it with a toilet brush jammed into a drill.
Omg a real Russian.
In Italy we also have Curasept and Biorepair!
Marvis is also Italian, owned by Ludovico Martelli who also own Proraso, with very cool “flavors”.

Solidox is my go-to. Norwegian brand, made in Sweden. Doesn’t look like it’s sold outside of Norway.
Unfortunately I bought a brand new Oral-B iO shortly before I started boycotting American products and now I’m kinda stuck with it. I don’t want to waste it, but at the same time I’ll have to keep buying their expensive brush heads.
I do at least use Sensodyne toothpaste.
No off brand heads you can use?
Apparently two brands make them, Cremodul and Trustnice; maybe a few others, but I’m not keen on using knock-offs because my teeth are quite fragile and apparently both of those brand knock-offs are much harder on the teeth. It also appears you can only really get them online from Amazon, which I’m definitely not keen on - out of the two, I’d rather throw extra money at Oral-B than a single £1 at Amazon.
If anyone knows, also let me know.
same situation here.
Next time I’m buying UK https://www.trysuri.com/en-de
Always.
