🦷 Fluoride or fluoride-free… which toothpaste should you be using?
When it comes to preventing tooth decay, fluoride toothpaste remains the evidence-based gold standard and is recommended for most patients.
If you choose to go fluoride-free, a toothpaste containing hydroxyapatite may be an alternative worth considering.
The important thing to remember is that toothpaste isn’t one-size-fits-all. Your age, oral health and individual risk of tooth decay can all affect which toothpaste and fluoride concentration is most appropriate for you.
