🪥👀 TOOTHPASTE GUIDE FOR G6PD (PH EDITION): Alin ang okay? Alin ang dapat ingatan?

Mommies & daddies, real talk muna—
Hindi lahat ng “bawal” online ay automatic true. Sa G6PD, ordinary toothpaste is usually NOT the main issue. Sa Philippine Newborn Screening guide mismo, sinabi na ang menthol sa ordinary toothpaste has not caused hemolysis so far; mas importante pa ring bantayan ang fava/broad beans, certain medicines, infections, at mothballs/naphthalene. ()

💡 BIG RELIEF FOR PARENTS:
So yes—regular, age-appropriate toothpaste is generally okay. Ang mas practical na tanong ay:
✔️ Age-appropriate ba?
✔️ Kids’ toothpaste ba or adult toothpaste?
✔️ Toothpaste lang ba ito… o medicated oral product? ()

🟢 Known / popular / affordable brands sa PH:
Colgate (may Colgate Baby 0–2 at kids variants), Hapee / Hapee Kiddie, Closeup, Pepsodent, at Sensodyne. Official PH/retail pages confirm these are commonly available locally. ()

💸 Budget-friendly examples na madaling hanapin:
Hapee Kiddie 50ml – ₱50, Colgate Kids/Tiger 40g – ₱56, Pepsodent Whitening Promo Pack 2x190g – ₱150, Hapee Gumtect Sensitive 100ml – ₱133, at may Sensodyne options din sa Watsons. Prices can change. ()

🚨 IMPORTANT WARNING:
Toothpaste ≠ medicated oral products. Kung benzocaine oral gel, numbing spray, teething gel, o singaw gel ang usapan, ask first. FDA warns benzocaine oral products can cause methemoglobinemia, at ang methylene blue ay contraindicated sa G6PD dahil puwedeng magpalala ng hemolysis. ()

💥 SIMPLE RULE:
👉 Ordinary toothpaste? Usually okay.
👉 Age-appropriate kids’ toothpaste? Good.
👉 Medicated oral gels/sprays? Ask first.
👉 Main food trigger to remember? Fava / broad beans.

💚 BOTTOMLINE:
Hindi kailangan mataranta sa toothpaste aisle. Minsan ang best choice ay hindi yung pinaka-mahal—kundi yung age-appropriate, trusted, at practical for daily brushing.
Check the label. Keep it simple.

2025 was indeed a challenging year for us, both physically and financially. Increasing expenses and decreasing sales had us worried month in and month out. I myself am questioning if we should continue practicing dentistry, as other businesses / careers may better reward us financially. We had gone as far as discussing moving to the province, as expenses may drastically go down while dental services will be more profitable than Quezon City’s.

But then, who will serve our community? I believe we are the only dental clinic in the area who can speak in Mandarin and Hokkien AND still charge reasonable rates (I mean, if you work corporate, you would be paid double or even triple if you speak Mandarin. Not in our case, though).

Did I ask my wife if we can increase our fees? Theresa calmly rejected the idea, as she believes that dental care should be accessible to everyone, both for the rich and less rich. No preferential treatment. No compromises.

As we approach the 2026 Lunar New Year, I hope and pray that you continue to support our advocacy for better dental health for everyone. Please don’t use fake PWD cards. Please avoid asking for discounts. If you can afford to buy luxury vehicles, you can afford to pay for a 900-peso oral prophylaxis (as of Feb 18, 2026). Take care of us, and we will surely take care of your oral health, too.

Happy 2026 Lunar New Year. We will always welcome you with warm smiles, and we hope you leave our clinic happy, too.
