3. Tooth powder was generally used among the Romans,
who used a variety of substances, such as the bones,
hoofs, and horns of certain animals; crabs; egg-shells,
and the shells of the oyster. They were reduced to a fine
powder after having been previously burnt, and
sometimes mixed with honey. It wasn’t until 1824, when
American dentist named Peabody started adding soap to
his paste that things started to change.

4. In 1873, Colgate started to mass produce their soap based
toothpastes in jars.
The first ‘tube’ of toothpaste was invented when Dr Lucius
Sheffield introduced his crème dentifrice in 1886.
It wasn’t long thereafter, that Colgate started selling their
toothpastes in collapsible tubes as well.
Fluorides were introduced to toothpastes in 1960’s.

5. Many of the innovations in toothpaste after fluoride
breakthrough involved the addition of ingredients
with special abilities to toothpastes and toothpaste
packaging.
In 1980’s the tartar control dentifrice claimed that they
could control tartar (calculus) build up around teeth.
In 1990’s toothpaste for sensitive teeth was introduced.

than in normal toothpaste to mechanically remove
food, tobacco, smoking and other extrinsic stains from
teeth.

chemicals to toothpaste.

toothpaste can result in fluorosis. Fluoridated
toothpaste can be either acutely toxic if swallowed in
large amounts or chronically toxic if swallowed in any
amount consistently.
Triclosan, an active ingredient in many toothpastes
can combine with chlorine in tap water to form
chloroform which is a human carcinogen. According
to some scientists it can leave unborn babies brain
damaged.

effects. The most significant one is enamel and dentin
abrasion which in turn leads to increased tooth
sensitivity.

Per capita toothpaste consumption
(in grams/per year)
37
Almost one third of the Indian population does not have
access to any of the modern oral health care facilities.
With the per capita consumption of toothpaste in India at
about 147g is the lowest in the world
38. In India, oral care market offers huge potential
as penetration and per capita consumption of oral care
products is very low. However rising per capita
income and increasing awareness is driving demands
of oral care products.
Consumers have started switching to value
added toothpaste like gels, mouthwashes and teeth
whitening products. In rural areas consumers are
switching from toothpowder to toothpastes.

39. CONCLUSION
• The clinical team has a responsibility to keep up-to
date with the ever-increasing development and
marketing of dentifrices
• Dentifrice recommendations should be patient
specific.
• Considerations include any complaint or request the
patient may have as well as any potential
contraindications or relative contraindications.
39
40. • If a patient is allergic or sensitive to an ingredient, all
dentifrices containing that ingredient should be
avoided.
• If the patient suffers from erosion, a low RDA
dentifrice should be selected.
• If a patient is experiencing hypersensitivity, a
desensitizing dentifrice containing potassium nitrate
or stannous fluoride can be recommended.
