We all rely heavily on toothpaste as an essential component of maintaining oral hygiene.

But some of the key ingredients found in most commercially available formulations of the product (like abrasives, which remove plaque and stains on our teeth) make toothpaste a pretty handy cleaning agent.

Scratches on your mobile phone screen? Crayon on your wall? Carpet stains? Silver jewellery in need of polishing?

Try toothpaste! 

It's unconventional, but perhaps worth experimenting with.
