Triclosan
• Anti-bacterial
• Triclosan mixed with chlorinated water releases chloroform. When absorbed through the skin, chloroform may cause depression, liver disorder and even cancer.
• The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has registered triclosan as a pesticide.
o-cymen-5-ol
• Safe anti-bacterial active ingredient
• Approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a food additive
Fluoride
• Prevents tooth decay
• Dangers− May cause gum damage− Slows down self-repair ability of gums− Harms immune system by inhibiting white
blood cells and increasing free radicals − Cancer-causing; damages DNA
• Commonly added to toothpastes and drinking water − Countries such as Singapore, Malaysia,
Australia, Canada and the U.S. carefully regulate fluoride levels in water
Hydroxyapatite
• Good bio-compatibility• Repairs teeth• Removes tartar• Absorbs odors from bad breath
and tartar
Bright & White Toothpaste cleans away tartar
Crevices are filled with hydroxyapatite
Tartar buildup in crevices on tooth surface leads to cavities
With crevices filled, teeth look naturally whitened and tooth decay is prevented.
• A common and economical foaming agent• Experiments prove that long-term usage of SLS
may cause cancer− A concentration of more than 0.01% of SLS leads to cell
death
• Potentially triggers skin irritation and other skin conditions
