192-778: A beneficial effect in reducing extrinsic stains, irrespective of whether or not a chemical discoloration agent was added. However, the whitening process can permanently reduce the strength of the teeth, as the process scrapes away a protective outer layer of enamel. Herbal toothpastes are marketed to consumers who wish to avoid some of the artificial ingredients commonly found in regular toothpastes. The ingredients found in so-called natural toothpastes vary widely but often include baking soda , aloe , eucalyptus oil , myrrh , camomile , calendula , neem , toothbrush tree , plant extract (strawberry extract), and essential oils . Many herbal toothpastes do not contain fluoride or sodium lauryl sulfate . A 2020 meta-analysis showed some evidence for
256-464: A bitter taste. In contrast, apples are known to taste more pleasant after using toothpaste. Distinguishing between the hypotheses that the bitter taste of orange juice results from stannous fluoride or from sodium lauryl sulfate is still an unresolved issue and it is thought that the menthol added for flavor may also take part in the alteration of taste perception when binding to lingual cold receptors . Many toothpastes make whitening claims. Abrasion
320-534: A cost of one billion US dollars. Fluoride was first added to toothpastes in the 1890s. Tanagra, containing calcium fluoride as the active ingredient, was sold by Karl F. Toellner Company , of Bremen , Germany, based upon the early work of chemist Albert Deninger . An analogous invention by Roy Cross , of Kansas City, Missouri , was initially criticized by the American Dental Association (ADA) in 1937. Fluoride toothpastes developed in

Two systemic meta-analysis reviews reported that arginine , and calcium sodium phosphosilicate – CSPS containing toothpastes are also effective in alleviating dentinal hypersensitivity respectively. Another randomized clinical trial found superior effects when both formulas were combined. Sodium polyphosphate is added to minimize the formation of tartar. Chlorohexidine mouthwash has been popular for its positive effect on controlling plaque and gingivitis, however,
1344-709: Is more complicated (and thus, more expensive to manufacture) than either the Marraffino design or the Colgate designs. The iconic depiction of a wave-shaped blob of toothpaste sitting on a toothbrush is called a "nurdle". Tooth powders for use with toothbrushes came into general use in the 19th century in Britain. Most were homemade, with chalk, pulverized brick, or salt as ingredients. An 1866 Home Encyclopedia recommended pulverized charcoal, and cautioned that many patented tooth powders that were commercially marketed did more harm than good. Arm & Hammer marketed

The risk of using fluoride is low enough that the use of full-strength toothpaste (1350–1500 ppm fluoride) is advised for all ages. However, smaller volumes are used for young children, for example, a smear of toothpaste until three years old. A major concern of dental fluorosis is for children under 12 months ingesting excessive fluoride through toothpaste. Nausea and vomiting are also problems which might arise with topical fluoride ingestion. The inclusion of sweet-tasting but toxic diethylene glycol in Chinese-made toothpaste led to
1664-448: Is the principal way that toothpaste removes stains, and toothpastes that are not marketed as whitening can still remove stains by abrasion. Some of these toothpastes contain peroxide, the same ingredient found in tooth bleaching gels.

These ingredients are claimed by the manufacturers to fight plaque, bad breath and prevent gum disease . A 2020 systematic metareview found that herbal toothpastes are as effective as non-herbal toothpastes in reducing dental plaque at shorter period of follow-up (4 weeks). However, this evidence comes from low-quality studies. The stannous ( tin ) ion, commonly added to toothpastes as stannous fluoride or stannous chloride , has been shown to have antibacterial effects in
3008-608: The mouth. Research has shown that stannous fluoride-containing toothpaste inhibits extracellular polysaccharide ( EPS ) production in a multispecies biofilm greater than sodium fluoride-containing toothpaste. This is thought to contribute to a reduction in plaque and gingivitis when using stannous fluoride-containing toothpastes when compared to other toothpastes, and has been evidenced through numerous clinical trials. In addition to its antibacterial properties, stabilised stannous fluoride toothpastes have been shown to protect against dental erosion and dentine hypersensitivity, making it
3072-552: The preventive effect increases with concentration. Clinical trials support the use of high fluoride (5,000 ppm fluoride) dentifrices, for prevention of root caries in elderly adults by reducing the amount of plaque accumulated, decreasing the number of mutans streptococci and lactobacilli and possibly promoting calcium fluoride deposits to a higher degree than after the use of traditional fluoride containing dentifrices. Many, although not all, toothpastes contain sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) or related surfactants (detergents). SLS
