What is toothpaste we use every day for toothbrushing made of?
Actually, toothpastes are mainly composed of seven major basic formulas, including surfactants, abrasives, thickeners, humectants, preservatives, sweetening agents, and fragrances. Their functions are as follows:
- Abrasives:Leverage the mechanical friction with toothbrushes to clean and polish tooth surface, keep tooth surface clean and smooth, and remove pigmentation and dental plaque.
- Surfactants:Also responsible for foaming in toothpastes, easing tooth surface tension, breaking through and dissolving precipitates and pigments.
- Thickeners: Prevent solid-liquid separation of paste during storage and maintain the pasty form.
- Humectants: Preserve moisture and prevent paste from hardening during exposure to air
- Preservatives: Prevent bacterial growth, extend storage life, with part of ingredients in the meantime serving to resist bacteria and inflammation.
- Fragrances: Increase aromas, improve taste and flavor, and freshen your mouths.
- Sweetening agents: Improve sweetness and flavor.
The above mentioned formula ingredients constitute the most basic cleaning toothpastes we use in daily life. Apart from the basic formula ingredients, some toothpastes contain different functional components for specific effects, such as ingredients for tooth decay prevention, teeth whitening, and resistance to tooth sensitivity.
