Company details
Where Davids Premium Oral Care products are made
“Recyclable metal tube and FSC-certified paperboard packaging… Proudly made in the USA” — from the company’s own toothpaste listing. Most personal-care brands claim the formula and stay silent on the container; claiming the tube is a claim about a metal-forming supply chain, which is harder to assert and easier to check.
“Gentle on the tongue and comfortable to hold. Made in the USA” on the tongue scraper, and “EWG VERIFIED™ with top-rated ingredients made in the USA” on the mouthwash concentrate. Twenty-six of thirty-six listings carry origin language in total.
One listing states “98% USA origin ingredients” rather than claiming a round hundred. A company willing to publish the remainder is describing a real bill of materials.
The Federal Trade Commission reserves an unqualified Made in USA claim for goods that are all or virtually all of domestic origin. Davids Premium Oral Care meets that bar convincingly for its toothpaste, tongue scraper and mouthwash concentrate, including the packaging. It does not claim it for the bamboo toothbrush or the floss, and neither does this page — which is why the label here is American Manufacturing with the scope written out.
The story
Davids Premium Oral Care began with a founder, Eric Buss, reading a toothpaste label and not liking the answer. The research that followed ran for several years; the company describes it as a four-year obsession beginning in 2011, but publishes no founding date, so this profile does not print one.
What came out of it is a business built around two unusual commitments for the category: a nano-hydroxyapatite formula rather than fluoride, and a recyclable metal tube rather than the laminated plastic that almost every competitor uses. Both are more expensive, and both are made in the United States.
Davids Premium Oral Care remains a family-owned and operated business, incorporated as Davids Health Sciences, Inc. and run out of Menifee, California, in Riverside County.
Why they matter
Oral care is dominated by a handful of multinationals whose manufacturing is spread across many countries and disclosed in none of them. A brand that names the country for the paste, the scraper and the tube is doing something the category does not require of it.
The packaging claim is the interesting one. Toothpaste tubes are among the least recyclable objects in a bathroom precisely because they are multi-layer plastic laminates, and switching to metal means finding a domestic tube supplier rather than ordering the default. That is a manufacturing decision, not a marketing one.
The honest limits matter too. The bamboo toothbrush carries no origin claim, and neither the company nor this page pretends otherwise. A profile that quietly extended the toothpaste claim across the whole catalogue would be worth less than one that draws the line where the evidence does.

Davids Premium Oral Care questions
Is Davids Premium Oral Care toothpaste made in the USA?
Yes — the company states it on its toothpaste listings across every line, and extends the claim to the recyclable metal tube the paste is packed in.
Which products are not claimed as US-made?
The bamboo toothbrush and the expanding dental floss carry no origin statement. The bamboo handle is described only as sustainably sourced.
Where is the company based?
Menifee, California — 33360 Zeiders Road, Suite 106. The legal entity is Davids Health Sciences, Inc., a Delaware C corporation that describes itself as family owned and operated.
When was the company founded?
No founding year is published on the company’s site. Its story page dates the founder’s research to 2011, but that is when the work started rather than a stated founding date, so this profile records no year.
