Chlorodont Toothpaste

This detailed replica of the Chlorodont toothpaste box represents one of the most common hygiene accessories for German soldiers during World War II. At the time, Chlorodont was a dominant brand on the European market, and its presence in the backpacks or toiletry rolls of Wehrmacht soldiers was a matter of course. The toothpaste was especially valued for its refreshing peppermint flavor, which helped maintain morale and a sense of cleanliness even in the harsh conditions of the front lines.

Soldiers purchased these toothpaste boxes in military canteens or received them as part of care packages from home. The packaging faithfully reproduces the period-correct typography and graphics, including hygiene recommendations promising the removal of unwanted plaque and fresh breath. The replica is made of durable material with waterproof print and is delivered as an empty box, making it an excellent visual accessory for reenactment, historical dioramas, or film productions where authenticity of everyday items is paramount.

Odol Mouthwash

This replica of period Odol mouthwash labels commemorates an iconic product that was a necessity for soldiers concerned with cleanliness and health in field conditions. The Odol brand, produced at the famous Lingner-Werke in Dresden, represented the absolute standard in oral care during World War II. Thanks to its strong concentration and antiseptic properties, it was not just a means of freshening breath, but an important preventive measure against inflammation and infections, which were common threats in the trenches or on the front lines.

Soldiers used Odol by simply mixing a few drops with lukewarm water, creating an effective solution for gargling and rinsing. The characteristic shape of the bottle with its bent neck was so well-known that it became a symbol of German industry of that era. This set includes both the front and back labels, with dimensions precisely matching the original 12 cm high bottle, allowing collectors and history enthusiasts to create a perfect replica of this hygiene accessory for their displays.

ERO Zahnpulver

This faithful replica of the period ERO Zahnpulver packaging represents one of the most common forms of oral hygiene encountered by German soldiers during World War II. While toothpaste in tubes was considered a more luxurious item, loose tooth powder in a paper sachet was a standard part of rations and canteen supplies due to its compactness and low cost. This specific variant was manufactured by the Alpa company in Brno (Brünn), documenting the wide network of suppliers within the Reich's economy at the time.

The use was simple – a soldier would moisten his toothbrush, dip it directly into the powder, and then brush his teeth. The powder had abrasive effects that helped remove plaque even in demanding field conditions where access to warm water was limited. The back of the packaging features period instructions recommending a thorough rinse with lukewarm water after use. An interesting detail is the Deutsche Wehrmacht bestimmt marking, which clearly defined this product as military material intended exclusively for army needs. The replica is an ideal addition to a toiletry roll for reenactors or as an authentic detail for static displays.
