“Are fluoride toothpastes good?”

Fluoride toothpaste is widely recognized for its role in preventing tooth decay and strengthening tooth enamel. It works by remineralizing weakened areas of the enamel and inhibiting the growth of bacteria that produce harmful acids. Most dental professionals, including myself, recommend the use of fluoride toothpaste due to its benefits in oral health, and it is endorsed by the American Dental Association for daily use. While fluoride is effective in cavity prevention, it's important to use it as directed to avoid the risks associated with overuse.

Fluoride helps to strengthen/remineralized your tooth enamel. As long as you are not ingesting or overdosing it helps to fight tooth decay.

Fluoride toothpastes are good for cavity prevention, gum health, and tooth sensitivity. It is best to use fluoride toothpastes every time you brush. We recommend brushing your teeth in the morning before breakfast and in the evening before bedtime, as well as after every time you eat and after every sugary drink for your best dental health.
