I've never heard that before...it might, but instead of using toothpaste, i suggest hydrogen peroxide...it pulls all the bacteria out and it will heal better. And if you want the redness and swelling to go away, try putting ice on them. It really works!

MFS answered Monday August 23 2004, 2:51 pm:
Lots of people seem to like to say "yes" to this.

The thing is, the answer is "no".

At best, toothpaste can quasi-mask the presence of a zit, but there is nothing in toothpaste to dry out the infection or kill the infection (as zits are really just tiny infections).

Toothpaste is designed to clean teeth. It has fluoride to strengthen teeth, mild abrasives to scrub teeth, and perhaps a whitening agent. Some contains a substance to fight gingivitis. But nowhere in there does it have anything to fight acne.

Yes, but be careful! I put toothpaste on a HUGE pimple i had, and it def. made it 1,000 times worse. The toothpaste burned my skin and i had a HUGE scabby like burn thing on my face, it was traumatizing. Make sure that when you put the toothpaste on, the burning sensation goes away. And do not leave it on for like more then 30 minutes. If it is burning you for more then 2 minutes, wipe it off!! Try some facewash or something! Anythings better then a huge burn scabby thing!

spikedcherricola answered Monday August 23 2004, 1:04 pm:
tooth paste isnt that great, but rubbing alcohol works like a dream! its amazing, in one day your zit will be dramatically smaller. and in 2 days itl be gone. just take a q-yip n dip it in the alcohol and swab ur zit. hope i helped, and feel free to drop ne other questions into my inbox!
