What is the highest fluoride toothpaste available?

Avoid it.

The only thing that is truly effective when it comes to cleaning teeth is the act of brushing. Only brushing can remove the bacteria that eventually form plaque and cause gum disease. I know a dentist that doesn't use anything but a toothbrush, and his teeth are perfect.

Explain that to the aspiring dentists in Birmingham, usually end up getting shoved away to other areas where they actually have no flouride in the water to see examples of dental problems! :p

Don't you mean bromide?

Either way seems an expensive and time consuming method when the mg42 in the guard tower worked most of the time.

That's because he's probably one of those freaks who finds time to clean after eating everything. Which is what you should do, but for those without the time it's better to build up a layer of fluoride protection.



Of course, and it bloody well should be.

So anything in life that goes against convention should be ignored? Maybe in your world pal! sad as it must be.
 
What an odd request! Why on earth do you need to know this information? High levels of floride in products can cause liver damage and the stronger prescription toothpastes usually start dying your teeth a light brown colour due to the compound replacing calcium carbonate being brown, not white.
 
No fluoride used in the area I live in, though I have been informed there has been a push to bring it into Southampton's water supply. According to a highly qualified nutritional practitioner friend of there is some evidence to suggest that it 'may' benefit teeth. Other than that he recommends to DO stay away from it. Cancer and osteoporosis in a glass along with an even more already doped population.
 
The first few topics on GD are asking people for help with brushing their teeth, filling out a passport form and figuring out what clothes to put on.

What happened to this place?

I've got a dodgy tooth and the dentist gave me some of the Colgate Duraphat toothpaste for it which really helped when applied topically. It ran out so I thought I would find out where I could get something similar off the shelf.

Not that mad. :confused:
 
Surely fluiride isn't going to be affecting the body seeing as most people (I hope) don't swallow toothpaste, and then rince out with water afterwards..........?

It also does not help fight teeth decay in any way, it actually destroys teeth and your bones.

This is incorrect.
Abuse of information and statistics applied incorrectly will generate date which is complete and utter twaddle.

During the course of a day, teeth become susceptible to acid attack. This weakens the surface, without causing an immediate cavity.
The surface is then restored with products from our saliva, basically the wall is repaired. If sugar intake is high, the weakening happens faster than the repair, and a cavity will form.
Adding fluoride in the form of a toothpaste or mouthwash, will allow a stronger matrix to be formed. When the natural repair process occurs fluroide is taken up into the mix, and makes for a stronger basic compound, more resistant to acid attack.
This is why brushing with a fluroide toothpaste is recommended.

After brushing, spit out the toothpaste. Don't swallow it. Kids should be supervised, and when young and unable to spit out proper small amounts of toothpaste should be used, and at the lower fluroide amounts.

Northern Ireland has basically the worst rates of dental decay in the world, we eat far too much sugar, far too often (and frequency is the main thing, much more than overall amount) we don't brush our teeth (therefore they don't get exposed to fluoride) and there is general dental phobia and apathy.
One study group demonstrated over a great many years that in one are the water was fluoridated and in that area dental decay was 40% lower than comparative areas in the rest of the region. Now even that area isn't fluoridated.

Groen, I hope your links are comedy masterpieces rather than attempts at fact, I'd hate to see someone spouting lies and decipt where peoples health is concerned.

Don't eat fluroide toothpaste folks, spit is out after, and it'll have a beneficial effect on your health. In high swallowed quantites it is not a good thing, but tahst not how it is advertised for use, even with high concentration toothpastes, you are not expected to drink the bloody stuff.

Calcium carbonate is tartar, thats the stuff you are meant to be brushing away and stopping the formation of, not the stuff teeth is made of.
 
You should try a holocaust mouthwash containing chlorhexidine, hydrogen peroxide, chlorine dioxide, benzalkonium chloride, hexetidine, cetylpyridinium chloride and zinc chloride.

Ok right, where did I state a massive generalisation like that?

And in this case, yes, the stupid theory that goes against convention (and also common sense) should be ignored. People can brush their teeth with what they want, but doing so because of the so called 'conspiracy' reasons above is daft.

To be honest, I don't care if other people are happy putting a poison that accumulates in their body. I'm not going to do it and considering that the stuff lowers your IQ I laugh at being called a "tard".
