Toothpaste

Toothpaste is a gel or paste used in conjunction with a toothbrush to clean and maintain the health of teeth. It contains a combination of abrasive agents, detergents, fluoride, and flavoring to remove food particles, plaque, and bacteria, while also helping to prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. Fluoride is a key ingredient, strengthening tooth enamel and reducing the risk of tooth decay. Toothpastes come in various formulations, including those for sensitive teeth, whitening, tartar control, and natural or organic options. Regular use of toothpaste is essential for maintaining good oral hygiene and a healthy smile.
