According to Arman Sadeghpour, the Tulane University doctoral candidate, chocolate toothpaste is better than a fluoride one. During his research, Arman found out that the white crystalline extract of the cocoa powder, helps to harden the teeth enamel and thus protects the tooth from decaying.
This cocoa extract with a chemical makeup similar to that of caffeine, can prove to be a key innovation for commercial toothpaste manufacturers, who, began adding fluoride to toothpaste ever since 1914.
Do you know that cavities and tooth decay are one of the most common health problems faced by millions of people across the world?
If these cavities are not treated properly, then, they tend to become larger and can cause tooth loss, severe pain, and infection.
So, if you want to prevent your pearly whites from decaying, be sure to floss and brush your teeth daily. And, if you are particularly keen on a chocolate flavor, you could try using the Closeup brand chocolate flavored toothpaste!
