Formulation and Spectral Analysis of New Poly Herbal Toothpaste

Toothpaste is a common product in our families and people hardly care to know about the product which ‘they are using. Toothpaste is an agent used as an effective home care system. It is a paste or gel dentifrice used with a toothbrush as an accessory to clean and maintain the aesthetics and health of teeth by the patients to enhance oral hygiene. Toothpaste is used to promote oral hygiene. Although, brushing teeth twice a day and daily flossing is highly effective in plaque reduction, over 50% of adults have gingivitis on an average of 3 to 4 teeth. Bacteria in dental plaque are one of the main factors causing periodontal inflammation therefore, careful plaque control is very important.

The need for additional help in controlling bacterial plaque provides the rationale for patients to use antimicrobial dentifrices in addition to their mechanical oral hygiene regimens. 1
