The chestnut-color toothpaste is made of various species of medical plants indigenous to Korea, including liquorice and dandelion.

Effective for five years, it is efficacious for killing dental bacteria. It washes away toothscum and removes tartar in 15 to 20 days from the beginning of use.

It is believed to be good especially for children.

The toothpaste was granted with the DPRK patent right.
