I just got myself a mega bargain deal - a pack of 'Crust' toothpaste, that boldly claims to provide '12hr fresh feel'! Now, I'm on a tight budget, but this got me wondering, like, should I actually use this stuff? I mean, would you trust 'Crust' with your pearly whites? The name itself sounds like it would do the opposite of cleaning. 😂

Long-term dental hygiene student here:
If there's one thing I've learned it's that the most important thing in a toothpaste is fluoride. It's the active ingredient that actually protects your teeth from cavities. So if 'Crust' has it, then technically, it should work fine for cleaning your teeth.
However, you should consider the flavor, texture, and how your mouth feels after using it. Those are the aspects that make teeth-brushing experience pleasant or not.
Also, regarding '12hr fresh feel', it's marketing really. No toothpaste can make your breath fresh for that long. It's more your overall oral routine like flossing, diet and not smoking that will help with that.
Just my two cents, but if you got a great deal and it's at least somewhat pleasant to use, go for it. Save dat money!
