I brush my teeth the German way:

Morgens Aronal abends Elmex.

Nice how they get you to buy two different products.

Morgens Haribol, abends Katjex

EDIT:

It's actually almost an option, according to an article from 2022 on Welt.de:

Es wirkt fast wie ein Scherz: Ausgerechnet der Fruchtgummi-Hersteller Katjes รผbernimmt die Zahnpasta-Marke Theramed vom Dax-Konzern Henkel

Or, in English:

It almost looks like a joke: the fruit gum manufacturer Katjes of all places takes over the toothpaste brand Theramed from the Dax Group Henkel

Very clever, I think, for one company to sell the "poison" and the "antidote"!

But I also think that means we could add Theramed-brand products to the list of EU toothpastes?

As a German I do this too.
