' Toothpaste' and its other 15 uses...

Tooth paste;

Every morning and night, you squeeze a small amount of toothpaste onto your toothbrush. But have you ever wondered what is in toothpaste that makes it clean your teeth? Most toothpastes share common ingredients, both active and inactive.

Both Active and inactive ingredients are categorized as 1) Fluorides 2) Flavors 3) Humectants 4)Detergents 5) Abrasives .Among  these five  ingredients Fluorides are active and the rest are  inactive

.

1)    Fluoride is an Active ingredient is that helps to fight cavities and reduce your risk of gum disease. When it comes to fighting cavities, fluoride plays a starring role. The American Dental Association (ADA) Mouth Healthy site has stated that this common ingredient is "nature's cavity fighter." It's a mineral that helps strengthen the enamel on your teeth.

2)    Flavors Toothpaste flavors typically come from sweetening agents, such as saccharin or sorbitol. Some toothpaste, such as Colgate® 2in1, are even fruit-flavored for children's use. Although these ingredients give the toothpaste a sweet taste, it's important to note that these toothpastes don't contain sugar and thus won't cause tooth decay. The ADA may give its Seal of Acceptance to toothpastes with sweeteners, but it will not sign off on toothpaste that contains decay-causing sugar.

3)    Humectants are some of those flavoring agents, like sorbitol, actually play two roles. Sorbitol is an example of a humectant, an ingredient that prevents loss of watering the toothpaste. A humectant traps water in the toothpaste so that when you squeeze the tube, you get a nice, smooth substance. Along with sorbitol, other examples of humectants include glycol and glycerol.

4) Detergents are important to have detergents in toothpaste because they help to provide foaming to occur when you brush your teeth. One of the most common detergents placed in toothpastes is sodium lauryl sulfate.

5) Abrasives are the ingredients that actually remove food debris and stains from teeth.

Today's abrasives are a bit gentler and typically include calcium carbonate, dehydrated silicia gels and hydrated aluminum oxides. The goal of the abrasive ingredients in modern toothpaste is to scrub the surface of the teeth without scratching or damaging your tooth's enamel besides all these multiple  uses given below.
