How to Choose the Right Toothpaste For You

Choosing toothpaste can seem confusing, especially now when there are so many different types to choose from. Toothpastes almost have their own aisle! Dr. Eric M Meyer, DDS of Fullerton, CA wants the best oral care possible for his patients. Check out some of the different kinds of toothpaste available for different dental needs!


The first ingredient you want to look for in a toothpaste is fluoride because it helps prevent cavities. Fluoride coats teeth and protects the enamel from acid and plaque. If you’re looking for a boost in smile power, choose a toothpaste that also has whitening capabilities. Most whitening toothpaste will polish surface stains and prevent new stains; however, if you choose a toothpaste with modified silicone abrasives, you are more likely to get a whiter effect.


Sensitive teeth that are not caused by cavities or infection could benefit from a toothpaste specially made for sensitive teeth. These often contain strontium chloride or potassium nitrate.


If you are looking for a more natural toothpaste, there are all-natural toothpastes out there. You just want to be sure that with any type of toothpaste you buy, you are sure that the American Dental Associate has approved it with their seal. This ensures that the toothpaste is safe and does what it claims to.


Remember to brush two to three times per day! For more dental hygiene help, schedule an appointment with Dr. Eric M Meyer, DDS in our Fullerton, CA dentistry. To schedule, call us at (714) 879-7943 or visit our website, www.fullertondental.com
