Is using toothpaste considered one of the things that break the fast?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is using toothpaste considered one of the things that break the fast?

Answer:
No, there is nothing wrong with the fasting person using toothpaste, on the condition that he does not let it flow down his throat; he spits it out, washes his teeth, cleans them, and spits out the toothpaste. The fasting person may also have a tooth extracted if it causes him pain; he may have it extracted while fasting. If the one performing the extraction prescribes some medication or something used for tooth extraction, or if blood appears, there is nothing wrong with it, but he must spit these things out. If something goes down his throat unintentionally and without his choice, it does not harm him, if Allah wills.
