Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed

This oral care product contains Camphor, which is toxic if swallowed in significant quantities and can cause seizures. While the exposure route is oral care (largely spat out), some ingestion is possible, especially for young children who may not fully understand not to swallow. Therefore, supervision is crucial for children. The product also contains a variety of botanical ingredients and essential oils, which may pose a risk for individuals with sensitivities or allergies to these compounds.

Contains Camphor; caution advised for young children due to ingestion risk

This oral care product includes Camphor, which is known to be toxic if ingested in large amounts, with potential to cause seizures. While primarily for mouth contact and largely spat out, accidental swallowing can occur, particularly with young children. Therefore, close supervision is recommended when children use this product. It also features numerous botanical extracts and essential oils, which could trigger reactions in individuals with specific allergies or sensitivities.

Okay for: Adults and older children who can reliably avoid swallowing

Camphor

Camphor gives a cooling, medicinal sensation and is a traditional ingredient in Ayurvedic oral-care and balm products. Swallowed in quantity it is toxic: a US poison-centre practice guideline refers anyone who has swallowed more than 30 mg of camphor per kg of body weight to an emergency department, because convulsions can follow. That threshold is far above what normal brushing involves, and the label does not show how much camphor a dose of this product carries, so this is a caution about young children who swallow toothpaste, not a finding of harm from ordinary use. In the US, camphorated oil drug products need new-drug approval.

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.

Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
