Is it possible for a child to be allergic to toothpaste?

I am a 24-year-old male. I was wondering is it possible for a child to be allergic to toothpaste?

Yes. Although very uncommon. Theoretically allergies can be to most anything. Components of toothpaste for the most part are nonallergenic. I have had a patient with a documented allergy to fluoride. Though rare it is possible.
Of course it is possible. Try another toothpaste.
I suppose anything is possible, but in 40 years as a dentist, I never once heard of an allergy to toothpaste.
