Despite several kinds of toothpaste available in the market most of them have the same basic composition. Which includes:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_Abrasives\"><\/span>\u00a0Abrasives:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Starchy components such as calcium carbonates and silicates are used to remove debris, plaque, biofilms, and stains from the teeth surface. The proportion of abrasives are more in powder &amp; in some whitening toothpaste. Regular use of these products can even lead to erosion of enamel<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Humectants\"><\/span>Humectants:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>They are present in paste and gels. Humectants such as glycerol are used to prevent toothpaste from drying.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Thickeners\"><\/span>Thickeners:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Gums or Gooey in some seaweeds is added as thickening agents used in toothpaste and gels to maintain its texture.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Detergents\"><\/span>Detergents:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Sodium lauryl sulfate is added as a detergent to form suds while brushing.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Flavoring_agents\"><\/span>Flavoring agents:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Flavoring agents such as artificial sweeteners, mint, lemon, or even bubblegum for kids are added to make their taste better.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Anti-Plaque_Toothpaste\"><\/span>Anti-Plaque Toothpaste<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>These kinds of toothpaste can control the accumulation of plaque on the teeth surface, helping reduce the effect of bacteria on teeth and their surrounding tissues, thereby reducing the chances of developing Gum Disease.<\/p>\n<p>If Plaque plaque is allowed to stay on teeth surface it hardens over a period of time and converted into tarter. Anti-plaque toothpaste contains ingredients such as Pyrophosphates, Zinc citrate, and triclosan, an antibiotic, and antifungal agent that assists to kill bacteria.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Toothpaste_With_Fluoride\"><\/span>Toothpaste With Fluoride<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Fluoride is the most important ingredient to look for when selecting a toothpaste. It helps strengthen the weak areas of the tooth and exposed roots.<\/p>\n<p>It is a natural mineral that assists to prevent tooth decay. Therefore, using fluoride toothpaste can reduce the risk of tooth decay and enhance the strength of the teeth.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Desensitizing_Toothpaste\"><\/span>Desensitizing Toothpaste<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If your teeth are sensitive to hot or cold, regular use of desensitizing toothpaste will reduce the sensitivity of your teeth, as it contains compounds such as potassium nitrate or strontium chloride that helps block the dentinal tubule thus blocks the transmission of sensation from the surface of the teeth to their nerves, Thus alleviating <a href=\"https:\/\/dantkritidentalclinic.com\/blog\/tooth-sensitivity-prevention-remedy\/\">teeth sensitivity<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whitening_Toothpaste\"><\/span>Whitening Toothpaste<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Whitening toothpaste can improve the whiteness of teeth. It contains an increased amount of abrasives and detergents, In addition to a bleaching agent such as carbamide peroxides that can remove stains and improve the color of the teeth. But it cannot change the color of underlying dentine.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dantkritidentalclinic.com\/teeth-whitening-gurgaon.html\">Teeth whitening<\/a> toothpaste should be used cautiously under the professional advice of <a href=\"https:\/\/dantkritidentalclinic.com\/best-dentist-in-gurgaon.html\">Cosmetic dentist <\/a>only.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Natural_Toothpaste\"><\/span>Natural Toothpaste<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>For those who are comfortable with using toothpaste containing chemicals, natural toothpaste can be a better option. this type of toothpaste is made from herbal extracts and other natural ingredients. the health claims of this type of toothpaste have not been clinically proven.<\/p>\n<p>However, people who are allergic to chemicals containing toothpaste are increasingly using natural toothpaste.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Toothpaste_For_Kids\"><\/span>Toothpaste For Kids<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This type of toothpaste typically contains less amount of fluoride or no fluoride at all. toothpaste for kids also contains fewer abrasive as their teeth contain much less mineral content than those od adults. Additionally, Children&#8217;s toothpaste contains flavors to make the love toothbrushing.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Smokers_Toothpaste\"><\/span>Smokers Toothpaste<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This type of toothpaste is specifically formulated for those who use tobacco.
