How to distinguish the quality of toothpaste

Many people use toothpaste frequently in their daily lives. They are very knowledgeable about the quality of toothpaste and have pursued the quality of it. It still depends on our knowledge and understanding of toothpaste. If you want to distinguish the quality of toothpaste, you can judge it by the color of the tail of the toothpaste, or you can distinguish it by the ingredients in the toothpaste. Everyone has different pursuits for toothpaste, and different types of toothpaste have different functions, so when choosing toothpaste, you must buy it according to your symptoms.

How to distinguish the quality of toothpaste

To judge a good toothpaste, you should look at the ingredients, not the name. However, many people mistakenly believe that the color of the tail of the toothpaste represents the ingredients. This is a big mistake. You think you care about the ingredients of the toothpaste, but in fact you only care about the butt of the toothpaste!

What does the color of the end of toothpaste represent?

False: Some people say that the color barcode on the end of the toothpaste tube is very famous. The green, blue, red and black color barcodes have different meanings: green - pure natural; blue - natural + medicine; red - natural + chemical ingredients; black - pure chemical. This is wrong! The color bar at the end of the toothpaste has nothing to do with the ingredients of the toothpaste.

True: The color mark at the end of the toothpaste tube is mainly used for positioning and identification when filling and sealing the toothpaste. The professional name is [electric eye positioning point]. Electric eye positioning points are very common in soft tube packaging, such as cosmetics, food, etc. They are used for positioning sensing of the sealing machine after the product is automatically filled to ensure that the package is in the correct position when sealing.

Although many people are concerned about the wrong things, at least the idea is good. A good toothpaste is not because it can whiten teeth quickly, not because it can produce a lot of foam, and not because it can reduce inflammation of acne on the face, but because it can prevent and solve many oral problems. How can we not care about it?

Teach you how to really care about toothpaste ingredients:

1. Do not choose sodium lauryl sulfate - it causes repeated oral ulcers and tooth sensitivity

Medical research has confirmed that the foaming agent sodium lauryl sulfate in toothpaste can cause the oral mucosa to rupture and be unable to repair itself, inducing and aggravating oral ulcers. It is the main cause of recurrent oral ulcers. It can also cause teeth to be sensitive to cold. Therefore, experts recommend that patients with oral ulcers use toothpaste that does not contain sodium lauryl sulfate.

2. Don’t choose triclosan, which interferes with hormones in the body

Studies have found that triclosan is a hormone disruptor that enters the body through brushing and accumulates in the body, interfering with body hormones and affecting development and fertility. In addition, it will flow into the outside world with household sewage and damage the environment.

3. Do not choose hydrated silica (hydrated silicon oxide) - it causes tooth sensitivity, bleeding gums, and exposed tooth roots

Hydrated silica, as an abrasive in toothpaste, is the main cleaning ingredient in toothpaste, but this substance does not decompose over time and can damage tooth enamel, leading to tooth sensitivity, bleeding gums, and exposed tooth roots.

If a toothpaste is used only for the purpose of producing more foam or cleaning, and treats oral health as cannon fodder, then this toothpaste should be used less or not at all. You know, a good set of teeth can be a considerable life asset decades later!

The toothpaste that has good cleaning effect and maintains oral health should be non-ionic alkaline toothpaste

This type of non-ionic alkaline toothpaste has outstanding cleaning power. The non-ionic ingredients are very mild, do not harm the oral cavity, do not increase the burden on the oral cavity, and are effective in protecting and repairing the oral cavity. Therefore, it is highly praised by skin experts. However, this type of non-ionic alkaline toothpaste is relatively expensive and is rarely found on the market.

Now you're not only concerned about the toothpaste butt, right?

In addition to choosing the right toothpaste, you should also choose a good toothbrush:

1. The brush head of the toothbrush should not be too large so that it can brush every part of the teeth smoothly.

2. The bristles of a toothbrush should not be too hard. A too hard toothbrush will aggravate problems such as bleeding gums and exposed tooth roots.

3. Do not brush your teeth too hard, otherwise it will easily damage the tooth tissue at the neck of the tooth, causing gum exposure and gum inflammation.

4. Use dental floss, interdental brushes and water flossers appropriately.
