Before you spread your toothpaste over your toothbrush bristles, check the contents of the paste and make sure it’s exactly what you want. If you aren’t sure what to look for in your tube of toothpaste, we recommend looking for the following:
ADA approval
If your toothpaste has the approval of the American Dental Association, it’s a trustworthy and safe product. This seal of approval means the paste has undergone many examinations that test for safety and effectiveness.
Fluoride
Fluoride toothpaste is generally the most beneficial and nourishing paste available. If you brush your teeth every morning and every night with fluoride toothpaste, your smile will have the strength it needs to survive.
Preferred comfort
If you have sensitive teeth, it is best to brush with toothpaste that caters to sensitivity. That way, you can have the comfort you deserve while you clean your smile each day.
Preferred taste
To make brushing more enjoyable and fun, you can brush with flavored toothpaste. There are many flavors available, including bubble gum, mint, and cinnamon toothpaste, and we encourage you to use the toothpaste that will help you enjoy brushing. Please do not swallow or eat the toothpaste.
Whitening
Whitening toothpaste is not a necessity, but it is recommended if you wish to brighten your smile. If you would like to know which whitening toothpaste is the best choice for your smile and your smile goals, we encourage you to call our office today and talk to a member of our team.
