Chocolate Toothpaste Might Work Better Than Fluoride

Kids love ChocolateA new study found that an extract of cocoa powder may be an effective alternative to fluoride in toothpaste by helping to harden teeth enamel. Mmmm - chocolate flavored toothpaste. I bet that will get the kiddies rushing to brush their teeth.

Actually, according to the article, the toothpaste might not actually be chocolate flavored. The inventor has already created a prototype of peppermint flavored toothpaste - with the cavity-fighting cocoa extracted added.

Chocolate flavored toothpaste sounds so much better.
