History of Toothpaste in Russia

== As Russian Empire ==
== 1900s ==
In the early 1900s, the Russian Empire was a vast and diverse territory, and toothpaste brands varied widely depending on the region. However, some popular toothpaste brands in the Russian Empire during this period included:
# Kryshtalovaya - produced by the company "Gesellschaft der russischen und ausländischen Apotheker und Fabrikanten", with factories in Moscow and St. Petersburg.
# Lacerda's Toothpaste - produced by the company "A.L. Lacerda & Co." in St. Petersburg, using imported ingredients from France and Germany.
# Paradontol - produced by the company "Paradontol" in St. Petersburg, marketed as a toothpaste and gum protector.
# Dr. Diehl's Toothpaste - produced by the company "Dr. Diehl & Co." in St. Petersburg, using imported ingredients from Germany.
# S.S. White's Tooth Paste - produced by the American company "S.S. White Dental Manufacturing Co.", with a branch in Moscow.
It's worth noting that during this period, toothpaste was still a relatively new and luxury product in the Russian Empire, and many people continued to use traditional methods of cleaning their teeth, such as salt, charcoal, or a mixture of salt and baking soda.
