Does 1964 date my Dentor toothpaste?
No. It is the Dentor Lion launch year, not an individual manufacture date.
Check Dentor Cosmetic Batch Code
Dentor is a long-running Lion Japan oral-care name, first launched as Dentor Lion in 1964 and now seen on Dentor SYSTEMA toothpaste. The launch year belongs to brand history, not a tube. Lion's dental guidance identifies leading YYYYMMDD or YYMMDD digits as the manufacture date for this category.

Dentor SYSTEMA toothpaste date codes
Before you rely on the decoded date
- Look on the toothpaste tube crimp and carton end for a leading eight- or six-digit calendar date, sometimes followed by production characters.
- Reject the 1964 history date, JAN barcode, size and toothbrush reference; validate that decoded month and day are possible.
Common lookup mistakes
- Keep the carton until the tube code has been recorded, as a fold or retailer sticker can hide end printing.
- Replace after contamination, seal damage or an unusual change in paste smell, taste or consistency.
