TL;DR: 10/10 Tastes great and doesn't burn. Doesn't make food taste bad. Works really well and motivates me to brush. I keep one at every sink.
I am an adult with ADHD and I have trouble remembering to brush my teeth. There have been times when I have gone a week without brushing because I would continue to forget and I have had bad dental health as a result. ADHD can make it hard to remember and execute tasks, especially uninteresting repetitive tasks like brushing. It is also hard for me to brush in the morning because the taste of mint first thing can make me feel nauseous or reluctant to eat breakfast because of the combination of mint with food making me lose my appetite. Or if I brush after eating breakfast, the taste still combines with the food and it is very unappealing. Many people with ADHD already have a low appetite to begin with, so this isn't ideal.
This toothpaste really helps those issues for me in two ways:
1) The strawberry flavor tastes like candy but still contains fluoride which is a hard combination to find. It encourages me to brush because I like the sweet taste. It is believed that people with ADHD tend to crave sugar and sweet flavors because of low dopamine, so I think that the candy flavor is excellent motivation for my brain to not forget brushing.
2) The flavor also doesn't linger after rinsing and you can't taste it when you eat. It doesn't kill appetite because it tastes like food. I'm ready to eat breakfast either before or after brushing because there isn't an unappetizing flavor combination like there is with mint (mint toothpaste and orange juice for example).
I have a tube of this and a toothbrush in multiple locations. There is a set at every sink, in the shower, and in my car.
I recommend combining this with a sensory friendly toothbrush you like and a little toothbrushing calendar to keep on your bathroom mirror.
