Regular toothpaste can have up to 1450 parts per million (ppm) fluoride. Wait, is that a lot? ⁠ ⁠ -- WARNING -- there is about to be some math. ⁠ ⁠ Parts per million SOUNDS like a lot, or maybe a little? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯⁠ ⁠ A helpful way to visualize one (1) part per million is to think of dropping four (4) drops of ink in a 55-gallon barrel full of water. So 1450 ppm would be like dropping 5,800 drops, or 1 ⅓ cups of ink into that same 55-gallon barrel ... That was a lot of math.⁠ ⁠ High fluoride toothpaste usually has 3x the regular amount of toothpaste, coming in at 5000 ppm (or 4 cups of ink in that barrel) to amplify your exposure to fluoride. The extra fluoride helps remineralize your teeth more effectively so you can restore enamel that was eaten away by acids from bacteria in your mouth.⁠ ⁠ #healthy #health #selfcare #progress #future #dentalcare #modern #wellness #healthcare #testimonial #review #factsdaily #factoftheday #chemistry #nerd #fluoride #natural #beauty #newyork #newyorkci...
