Advice on best toothpaste please

davetrousers

My hygienist always seems most interested in how I brush and floss and how often. She doesn't seem too concerned about the type of toothpaste I use.

Most toothpastes contain fluoride, the hygienist will be more concerned about your brushing routine and technique.
Having the best toothpaste on earth will do you no good unless you use it properly.
Colgate Total is a good all round toothpaste.

The type of brush recommended would most likely be pretty specific to the mouth shape and the arrangement of the teeth. As well as the dexterity of the patient.

The sort of brush Dave's hygienist recommended for him might be totally different from the type she'd recommend for you.

IMHO it would have been better to leave seperate.
Duraphat is a specific type of v.high flouride toothpaste.

Also that old thread came vhigh in Google.com search

I'd seriously recommend the dentalux herbs variety toothpaste out of Lidl. Been using it for a couple of years or so and is great.

HIya

I have a toothpaste truama. My little girl (3) likes ASDA's berry toothpaste, but I can no longer get it in my local stores.

She does not like mint as she says it burns her mouth, and I am no struggling with getting her to clean her teeth after finally getting her to do it with the red one!!

Any suggestions/tips pleassssssssseeeeeeee

Other than for people with sensitive teeth or other conditions, if the ingredients in the branded toothpaste and the Smart Price toothpaste are the same (and that includes the percentage of Sodium Fluoride) then it makes sense to go cheaper.
