A Dentist's Guide to Toothpaste

Let's look past the marketing to find the real differences (and similarities) between toothpastes.
A dentist's guide for how to find out what ingredients are in toothpastes and which ones you should be looking out for. What are the differences between the different kinds of fluoride? What is potassium nitrate and why might you want it in your toothpaste? Does whitening toothpaste actually do anything?

you're so welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@chidieberechinedu5136]

I love this teaching. Thanks for it😊

[@bernardocisneros4402]

From experience, I totally agree with going to the dentist and having a dental hygienist clean and polish your teeth to remove any stains. During your visit ask the dentist or hygienist what you can do to prevent the staining. Maybe you need to stop or cut down on drinking dark soft drinks or coffee with cream and sugar. They might even say you can continue to drink and eat as before but you need to brush differently or with a different type of brush or toothpaste. I was getting stains on the inside of my bottom front 4 teeth (the 4 between the canines) from drinking coffee with cream and sugar. I was able to continue drinking coffee with cream and sugar but I needed to brush my teeth 20 to 30 minutes after I was done drinking and if for some reason I wasn't able to brush them, I was told to rinse and swoosh my mouth with warm water immediately after I was done drinking my coffe to help dissolve and spit out the remaining sugar in my mouth. Both the brushing and rinsing with warm water took care of the issue. I would avoid using whitening toothpaste, but if you decide to use it, only use it for a week or two. If the stain doesn't go away during this time, discontinue using it and go see a dental hygienist. Whitening toothpaste will wear away your enamel after using it for a long time. If you wear away your enamel, you will have yellowish/brown teeth. Not a good look.

[@rabbit5000]

Really glad I found this! I'll go with Crest for now. Finding the perfect toothpaste is the next step since I have already found the best e-toothbrush. Which the Oclean Flow btw!

[@citizen1115]

Crest cause teeth sensitivity and gum bleeding

[@fabslyrics]

Thank you Dr, crystal clear, what do you think of super high fluoride 5000ppm toothpaste like duraphat?

[@ElNegroMasGuapoDeMexico]

[@shawnariggs2485]

[@tomdang4218]

Great video, thank you 🙏

[@99ron30]

I live in the UK and I find many tooth pastes, especially whitening ones, give me sore dry chapped lips. My skin must be sensitive to a particular ingredient and when I brush I usually get alot of toothpaste foam around my lips. So I had to be really careful about which brand and which type I choose. Currently I find Colgate Sensitive with Sensifoam works brilliantly. No bad reaction. But some of the other Sensitive pastes from Colgate do react with my skin. I just hope this product remains available.

[@MisterMichaelVReyes]

Love this explanation. I always tell my husband there is no difference between that $7 dollar tube of Sodium Fluoride toothpaste and the $2 one from Colgate. It’s all in the marketing. One other thing I would consider too, is taste! I use pepsodent (or aim if I can’t find it,) because the taste is pleasant. I always follow up with a mouthwash as well.

[@mh.1603]

I LOVE this video. I do have a question about not using any toothpaste at all. There's a doctor who doesn't use any toothpaste at all as brushing without toothpaste is just as effective. How would someone even keep their mouth from bad odors that way? (P.S: Your voice is extremely soothing.)

[@bgueberdenteich5206]

I wish that I had such an attractive dentist. Thank you for the information.

[@serene4693]

Really needed this, now I'll just do my research about toothpaste brands. Since this is my next step after actually finding the best electric toothbrush, the Oclean Flow.

[@LivingGood101]

Thank you for taking the time to make such an amazing video. We all truly appreciate it.

[@lavernec7812]

Great info!!!

[@katiec4750]

This video and the charcoal video I found very helpful! Thank you! I’m curious about mouthwashes... I know you said whitening toothpaste is just more abrasive but what about whitening rinse? Say I use crest strips to whitening my teeth, what would you suggest in between for surface stains? A rinse or toothpaste?

[@drtyler2075]

White Strips work pretty well. They have the same active ingredient that some "professional" whitening gels have, just at a lower percentage, so they might work a little slower. Toothpaste might work on the stain between your teeth, but that might be tartar, which will need to be scraped by a hygienist. I don't think the mouthwashes do anything. They have some peroxide in them, but probably too low a dose to actually be effective

[@j.p.s5311]

Always use warm slat water over any mouthwash, they never have the same benefits as something like warm salt water

[@jia8849]

Thank you!

[@Aljees]

Thank you so much

[@margaretohara7250]

Very informative. Thank you. Most toothpaste does not say where made. Why is that?

[@elle390]

Your video is really informative, I guess I'll continue using Synsodyne along with my Oclean Flow! Made my teeth whiter and fresher so I guess its good.

[@Vxneji]

better video that all the home 'experts' thanks doc

[@heathercruz3010]

What is the best toothpaste what would you recommend plus also my sister has sensitive teeth

[@vlada9396]

Great information. My toothpaste contains Aminfluoride. What is that?

[@Redmaile25]

Dang, doc. That is the best explanation I’ve gotten on toothpaste. Thank you. I currently have braces so I’m looking for what would be the best for my teeth. Love the straight to the point but thorough explanation. 🙏 thank you
