The mouth is the body's largest and busiest entryway: quintals of food in a lifetime, billions of saprophytic bacteria and 32 teeth that have to coexist in harmony. Tooth brushing is part of basic body hygiene. Good oral hygiene means healthy teeth and a beautiful smile. Choosing the right toothpaste may seem trivial, but it requires some thought. No two people have the same needs. Yellow, sensitive or decayed teeth have different expectations. Tooth sensitivity, healthy gums, plaque removal, white teeth.

The basis of good oral hygiene is twice-daily brushing with an appropriate toothbrush, on which the Union française de la santé buccodentaire recommends applying a dab of toothpaste.

Brushing is everything!

To clean teeth of plaque and food debris, the mechanical movement of the brush bristles over all tooth surfaces is sufficient, provided it's done correctly. Toothpaste is particularly useful for its fluoride content.

Fluoride is a trace element that plays an important role in the composition of teeth. The right amount of fluoride in toothpaste strengthens tooth enamel. Fluoride toothpaste is therefore the most suitable measure for preventing cavities. As you may have noticed, younger generations have far fewer cavities than our grandparents did. And that's thanks to fluoride.

Fluoride levels should be age-appropriate:

Before the age of 2, no toothpaste, otherwise your child may swallow it.
Between 250 ppm and 500 ppm for 2-year-olds, only if they can spit.
Between 500 ppm and 1000 ppm for a 3-year-old who can spit.
Between 1000 and 1500 ppm for children over 6 and adults.

These levels are based on two brushing sessions per day, each lasting 2 minutes.

Be careful, however, not to overdose on fluoride, as this can lead to damaging fluorosis. Conversely, in the event of a high risk of tooth decay, your dentist may prescribe a fluoride supplement(mouthwash, high-dose toothpaste), following a fluoride check-up.

Here are a few tips on how to make the most of your toothpaste:

Use the right amount: use a small amount of toothpaste, about the size of a pea, for best results.
Brush for two minutes: it's important to brush for at least two minutes to effectively remove plaque and bacteria.
Brush twice a day: we recommend brushing twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, to maintain good oral hygiene.
Brush all tooth surfaces: it's important to brush all tooth surfaces, including the back teeth, the inner and outer surfaces of the teeth, and the tongue.
Avoid rinsing your mouth after brushing: it's advisable to avoid rinsing your mouth after brushing, so that the active ingredients in the toothpaste can continue to work to protect your teeth and gums.
See your dentist regularly: even if you use a good toothpaste, it's important to see your dentist regularly for thorough dental check-ups and professional cleanings.

What is toothpaste?

Toothpaste is a paste, gel or powder formulated for use with a toothbrush. It contains active ingredients and cleaning agents that help remove food debris, bacteria and plaque deposits. The composition of toothpastes varies according to their objectives: cavity prevention, whitening, gum protection or care of sensitive teeth.

Main components include :

Cleaning agents (mild abrasives): Help remove plaque and surface stains without damaging enamel.
Fluoride: Strengthens enamel and protects against cavities.
Antibacterial agents: Reduce bacteria responsible for gum disease.
Flavoring agents: Provide fresh breath.

Why use toothpaste?

Toothpaste performs several essential functions for oral health:

Tooth cleaning and cavity prevention: Thanks to fluoride and cleaning agents, toothpaste helps remove food residues and cavity-causing bacteria.
Enamel protection: Enamel-strengthening ingredients like fluoride help prevent tooth wear.
Plaque reduction and prevention of gum disease: Antibacterial agents reduce the proliferation of bacteria responsible for gingivitis and periodontitis.
Teeth whitening: Some toothpastes contain specific agents to reduce stains and restore teeth's natural shine.
Fresh breath: aromas such as mint or eucalyptus leave a lasting sensation of freshness.

Toothpaste types

Anti-caries toothpaste: Rich in fluoride, it protects enamel by strengthening its structure and preventing acid attacks by bacteria. This type is ideal for daily use, especially for those prone to cavities.
Toothpaste for sensitive teeth: Formulated with ingredients such as potassium nitrate or stannous fluoride, it works by blocking exposed nerve channels, reducing the pain associated with tooth sensitivity.
Whitening toothpaste: Contains mild abrasives or enzymes to remove surface stains caused by tea, coffee or tobacco. However, these toothpastes should be used in moderation to avoid damaging enamel.
Gum toothpaste: Enriched with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory agents, this type of toothpaste helps reduce gum inflammation, prevent bleeding and strengthen periodontal health.
Natural or organic toothpaste: Made from ingredients of natural origin, it is free from synthetic fluoride, sulfates or parabens. Plant extracts such as chamomile, sage or clay provide benefits for teeth and gums.
Children's toothpaste: Designed with adapted fluoride concentrations (lower than those for adults) and pleasant flavors, this toothpaste is formulated to encourage children to adopt good oral hygiene.
