Does Colgate Toothpaste makes an excellent salve for burns?

No, Colgate toothpaste is not an appropriate first aid treatment for burns. In fact, it can be harmful.

Toothpaste contains abrasives, which can irritate and damage the delicate skin of a burn. Additionally, the fluoride in toothpaste can cause further irritation.

If you must apply a home remedy to a burn, choose something that will help soothe the area, such as aloe vera gel or cool water.
