Does toothpaste replace the miswak?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner asks: Does using toothpaste replace the miswak and equal it in reward?

Answer:
No, it does not replace the miswak. The miswak is for prayer. If you want to pray, you get this toothpaste. The miswak is for prayer, for wudu, and for getting up from sleep.
