Dr. Washington Wentworth Sheffield was was a respected dentist and dental surgeon. In the mid- 1870s, he developed a new cleaning product in a cream form as a replacement for the powders common at the time for teeth cleaning. He made the dental cream in his office and added mint extracts to improve the flavor. Sheffield tested the new product on his patients who, in turn, expressed their liking for it. After establishing Sheffield Dentifrice Co. in 1880, with the help of his son, he constructed a manufacturing plant on his property. There he went on to produce a mouthwash he had previously invented, as well as the new cr�me dentifrice toothpaste. This manufacturing plant still stands today in New London, Connecticut, where his premium natural toothpaste is made. Dr. Lucius T. Sheffield was the only child of Dr. Sheffield. While his father was the first person to invent thpaste, Lucius was the first person to place the paste into !lapsible tubes. Lucius found inspiration while watching risian artists preparing their int palettes. He realized the collapsible tubes the artists used to squeeze paint onto palettes could be used to squeeze his father's new thpaste onto a toothbrush in a sanitary manner. Fluoride-free formula.
