BACKGROUND Fluoride toothpastes presumably offer some protection against acid erosion. However, uncertainty exists towards fluoride's efficacy relatively to the concentration and the type of chemical compound used. This in vitro study evaluated the relative efficacy of toothpastes containing sodium fluoride in different concentrations or a stabilized stannous fluoride/sodium fluoride system on ...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine the viability of dental plaque at 12 hours following brushing with Colgate Great Regular Flavor (0.83% MFP), Crest Pro-Health (0.454% SnF), and Colgate Total Clean Mint Toothpaste (0.3% triclosan/ copolymer/0.22% NaF). METHODS Thirty-two healthy volunteers from Bangkok, Thailand were chosen to participate in a double-blind clinical crossove...

Currently, an extensive variety of toothpastes are available on the market, containing basic components that ubiquitous in all toothpastes, addition to unique constituents bestow characteristic traits, and it is crucial acknowledge certain found not recommended for ingestion due their potentially negative impact overall wellbeing, especially children. This study aims highlight role natural as a...

Purpose: To evaluate the effects of herbal-based toothpastes with different contents on viability L929 cells.Methods: Herbal-based {Aloe vera - propolis herbal toothpaste, Group 1; Parodontax, 2; Toothpaste miswak, and tea tree extract, 3, Dent natural protective toothpaste clay, 4; Gano fresh, 5} were diluted (1:1, 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:16, 1:32) in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium. fibroblast ce...

The objective of this study was to analyze the effects of toothbrushing with desensitizing toothpastes on dentin permeability and dentinal tubule occlusion. Fifty rats provided two hundred incisor teeth divided into five groups: DW, brushed with distilled water (control); FT, brushed with fluoride toothpaste; SCT, brushed with strontium chloride toothpaste; PCT, brushed with potassium citrate t...

BACKGROUND It was the aim of this study to investigate the effect of four different toothpastes with differing fluoride compounds on enamel remineralization. METHODS A 3 x 3 mm window on the enamel surface of 90 human premolars was demineralized in a hydroxyethylcellulose solution at pH 4.8. The teeth were divided into 6 groups and the lower half of the window was covered with varnish serving...
