Questions about our Ayurvedic toothpaste
01
Taste, feel & expectations
Things first-time users often wonder about — but packaging rarely explains.
Why does the taste feel different from regular toothpaste?
Many families notice a herbal, slightly bitter or salty character at first. That is part of the medicinal Ayurvedic profile — not candy-sweet foam. Most people say the taste grows on them within days as freshness lasts longer through the day.
Will it whiten my teeth?
No — and that is intentional. Shishodia is positioned for medicinal oral care (gums, sensitivity, freshness), not cosmetic whitening. If your main goal is a brighter shade for photos, this is not that product.
How soon might I notice a difference?
Freshness is often noticed within days. Gum comfort and sensitivity support usually build with consistent use over weeks to months. Families who stay with the routine tend to do better than those who switch pastes every few days.
Should I stop my dentist visits if I use this?
No. Shishodia supports daily home care. Keep routine dental check-ups, and see a dentist promptly for severe pain, abscess, trauma, or rapidly worsening gum disease.
02
When it helps — and when it doesn’t
Honest boundaries for bleeding gums, pyorrhea concerns, and family use.
Is this toothpaste for pyorrhea or serious gum disease?
Shishodia began as a family response to severe gum problems and is used by people seeking Ayurvedic support for pyorrhea-related concerns. It is daily oral care, not a substitute for a dentist if you have severe pain, swelling, loose teeth, or infection — seek professional care when needed.
Can young children use the same tube?
Older children who can spit reliably can usually share the household paste as directed. For very young children who swallow toothpaste, ask your dentist first. The formula is meant as everyday home care, not a clinic-only treatment.
How long does one 140g tube last?
For one person brushing twice daily, one 140g tube usually lasts about 6 to 8 weeks. Buying a few tubes together is common for families and often helps you qualify for free delivery thresholds.
03
Buying & partnerships
Practical questions beyond COD and the free-delivery banner.
Where do you ship from, and how long does delivery take?
Orders are fulfilled for customers across India from our Himachal Pradesh base. Delivery timelines vary by destination; most domestic orders arrive within standard courier windows. You can track an order from the order-tracking page after purchase.
Can I buy for a shop or become a distributor?
Yes. For retail supply and distribution inquiries in your area, use the Contact page with your city, shop type, and approximate monthly volume. We are happy to discuss wholesale and partnership options.
How did the brand start?
It began when the founder’s father struggled with severe gum disease and could not find lasting relief in ordinary options. Years of research around Himalayan herbs led to a formula first made for the family — then shared with others facing similar problems. The next generation continues that work today.
