Tritium has some commercial value, albeit a relatively short half-life.

We can probly figure out how to get rid of it by putting it in our toothpaste or short acting fibre drinks.

Yeah with a 12.3 year half-life it should all be gone in about 85 years, more or less. Regardless, as has been said, it is a low energy beta emitter, so won't do much damage unless you ingest it in significant quantities.
