Is toothpaste a plasma?

This is categorically false.

I would consider toothpaste to be a highly viscous example of either a non-Newtonian fluid or a colloidal suspension. On the other hand, plasmas exist as a mixed cloud of separated positive and negative ions, in many cases at extremely high temperature.
