Smile! These Vegan Toothpaste Brands Are Animal Test–Free

Trips to the dentist can seem a bit scary, but for animals in laboratories, life is much worse. Companies that test products on animals perform horrible experiments—including dripping chemicals into rabbits’ sensitive eyes and rubbing substances onto their tender skin. Experimenters force rabbits, mice, rats, and others to live in cramped cages. The terrified animals undergo agonizing tests without painkillers for up to two weeks and are killed when the experiments are over.

Luckily, more and more companies are choosing not to test their products on animals. Since animals make us smile so much, it makes sense that we should take care of our smiles using products, like vegan toothpaste, that are cruelty-free!
