Is it bad to mix 2 different brands of toothpaste?

I mixed 2 brands of toothpaste today when I was brushing my teeth, I bought a while ago the Colgate Plus Oxygen Whitening, and I usually use Crest Pro Health, but I mixed them today? Is that good or bad for my teeth? (Don’t ask me why I did it, I just did! LOL!)

    It’s not harmful, but it doesn’t really make sense to do that.

    Probably just tastes a little odd. Don’t worry about it.

    The way they keep making more and more “super” toothpastes, chances are there’ll be one on the market before you know it with all those ingredients and more.

    No, there is nothing wrong with mixing different types of toothpaste, although I don’t understand why you would do this. Toothpaste itself is not necessary to clean the debris from your teeth at all. The action of the toothbrush does that if it is used properly. The main benefit of using toothpaste is the fluoride contained in the toothpaste helps to protect your teeth from bacterial decay
