Caffeinated Toothpaste Promises 'Rush While You Brush'

BOSTON (CBS) -- What if you could feel the same caffeine buzz you get from your morning cup of coffee just by brushing your teeth?

That's the idea behind a product claiming to be the world's first caffeinated toothpaste. Power Toothpaste says it won't only clean your teeth, but also provide nearly the same jolt of energy as an 8-ounce cup of coffee.

It's not available widely yet, but Power Toothpaste is offering a free tube to people who sign up on their website.
