SAEDNEWS: Historians Believe Ancient Egyptians Used a Type of Powder as Toothpaste
According to Saed News’ social affairs service, multiple pieces of evidence suggest that ancient Egyptians were producing and using toothpaste around 5,000 years BCE. They reportedly created a special powder by combining various ingredients to clean their teeth and mouths. Among these ingredients were burned eggshells and alabaster.
It should be noted, however, that modern scholars do not have complete knowledge of how this powder was actually used, and these claims remain largely hypothetical.
