I hate that 9/10 the only decent bubblegum flavor is Disney branded. Mint toothpaste makes my lips and tongue swell and I have no idea why because mint tea and candy is fine. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
that is bad, yea you know its too much mint if it causes burning sensation. some can cause ulcers if its too much mint. i developed chronic chelitis because i used some of the ones with lots of mint, or the off brand ones. i assume its the kids branded one of crest?
the new version of the old varieties have a ton of mint. i think its due to shrinkflation from covid. crest pro supposed to be 4.6oz(old) is very hard to find and its like a very plesant taste without the mint, the new one is 4.3, with overpowering mint oil.
i have been considering getting kids version of crest, i might do it this time.
i think mint comes from the oil they use, i think put a ton of it in the newer version of crest/colgate or another to mask the cheapness of the less effective ingredients. some people says SLS(sodium laurel sulfate/sarscoinate), or CLS causes it. but i think its the mint oil, or abrasives. i get ulcers when i use one of these toothpastes. i use the ones with potassium nitrate(to numb teeth)
likely its comes from mint oil they use, oils can be very irritating to the gums. apparently peppermint contains menthol, could be behind the irritation it can cause? apparently spearmint barely contains any menthol. it seems its likely the menthol in pepperminted toothpaste that cause irritation. could not figure out why some off-brand ones are causing it. just checked on some reviews of toothpaste with mint, its mostly the mint+ menthol likely peppermint. since spearmint taste much milder than peppermint (which gives you that fresh cool feeling)

My mom has lichen planus in her mouth and can’t use any kind of minty toothpaste.

My guess is the food uses real mint but the toothpaste doesn’t and you’re allergic to the mint substitute.
