Answers:
No, it tastes nasty.. If you want a substitute try baking soda.. It doesn't taste all that nice either but it sure beats bar soap! Plus, it's good for your teeth.. It is natural and has the ability to clean your teeth well--slightly abrasive without damaging your teeth--so you get a nice, good clean mouth.. Just dampen your toothbrush and dip into into the baking soda..Health Question & Answer

do not use soap, you are not supposed to ingest soap, granted it will not kill you but it is not good for your body.. Plus it will not do anything to clean your teeth, the main component of tooth paste that cleans your teeth is floride, this being absent is all soapsHealth Question & Answer
