To start, check fabric care instructions for your item of clothing. Some fabrics are more delicate than others and should not be exposed to certain cleaning solutions.
For most fabrics, you can remove toothpaste stains by blotting the stain with a damp cloth. If stain persists, apply a pre-treatment solution such as liquid detergent or an enzyme-based cleaner before washing according to the item's care instructions.
Leather and suede materials are delicate and require special cleaning techniques. To remove toothpaste stains from these materials, first scrape off any excess toothpaste with a dull knife.
Next, make a cleaning solution by mixing mild liquid dish soap with warm water. Dip a clean cloth into the solution and wipe away any remaining toothpaste. Allow item to air dry and then buff lightly with a soft cloth.
The best way to deal with toothpaste stains is to prevent them from happening in the first place. Make sure to take off your clothes before brushing your teeth and wash them immediately if they do get stained with toothpaste.
If you find yourself out of the house with a toothpaste stain on your clothing, try carrying a stain stick with you. These compact devices can help you quickly treat stains on the go.
