Article gets weird at the end. Says to listen to the Cochran reviews, and includes one that says "High fluoride toothpaste prevents carries" and then immediately writes there's no difference between brushing normally and using high-fluoride toothpaste.
Then wraps it up by trying to sell preorders for his own product.
Cochran is right.. high fluoride toothpaste works. Had half dozen cavities during my 20s a year apart, and finally found out about this from my dentist, and it immediately halted any progression. Not one cavity in 10 years since starting it. Ask your dentist.. its not even expensive. Just dont let your kids use it.
- toomuchtodo 3y agoI’ve been waiting for years (more than a decade at this point) for this to be commercialized, and have had to have most of my teeth repaired due to cavities. $250 is a cheap experiment, depending on your financial situation. (Preordered, no other affiliation)

- catlikesshrimp 3y agoThe only cavities I have had formed before my 25th year. 6 of them. I haven't had any other since then. After I had them filled, I started going to an odontologist for a checkup every 4 years. The odontologists says she doesnt see cleaner teeth from patients who checkin once a year. My personal conclussion is that adults can be more careful with their health than teenagers. I don't eat between meals (mostly). I eat twice a day. I brush after meals. I only floss before going to sleep.
- DigitalHackOp 3y agoWhich high fluoride toothpaste do you use? My dentist recommended that I use one, but none of the options seem to give an indication of how much fluoride they actually contain.
- rgbrenner 3y agoI've used Prevident 5000 and Clinpro 5000. The first is gel, the later is paste. Both have 5000ppm fluoride, which is the same as 1.1% sodium fluoride (compared to 1100ppm or 0.243% sodium fluoride in otc).
- ac130kz 3y agoI've been using a Xylitol based toothpaste for 3 years now, which my dentist highly recommended, it works better than fluoride with my teeth too.
- Ferret7446 3y agoIt definitely works, the discovery was a godsend for industries looking to get rid of their fluoride waste. The main issue, for the conspiracy-minded, is what other effects it may have.
