    How’s the cost of them? All the ones I have seen are absurdly more than normal toothpaste like 2-3x the price

      360 tabs is 36€ on their site. Comparable with the medium-high price category of things like 3D white I think for a year’s supply.

      The thing is, you can stretch toothpaste very very far by just putting much less on, as well as tons of cheap brands. With tabs you have to use the recommended amount unless you want to put in work cutting them.

      It definitely isn’t the cheapest but they have 0 plastic since 2025 in their tablet packaging (they used to have a cellophane bag but they changed their formula that made the tablets much harder and less prone to falling apart with humidity) which is pretty huge considering Colgate and oral B make up a pretty good share of plastic pollution.

      You can’t have both cheap and sustainable in most cases.
