In recent years, a variety of "functional toothpastes" have gradually increased, such as anti -toothpaste, solid toothpaste, anti -inflammatory and hemostatic toothpaste, anti -dehuminum toothpaste, etc., so that consumers have spent their eyes. However, these functional toothpastes The price is several times or even ten times more expensive than ordinary toothpaste. Are these functional toothpaste really worth buying? Does it really have such a magical effect? Jimu Journalists carried out online and offline market surveys and interviewed Jiangcheng experts to answer questions from netizens and readers.

A fifty or sixty yuan, functional toothpaste

On the morning of August 22, the reporter came to a mass -selling living supermarket in Wuchang District, Wuhan, and walked to the toilet market area. It was found that there were a whole 7 -story shelves to place a variety of toothpaste. Yuan is not waiting, "repairing mucosa damage", "relieving teeth soreness" and other propaganda gimmicks are generally more than 20 yuan. For example, the price of a toothpaste to relieve dental sensitivity, professional repair and whitening toothpaste is 52.9 yuan/branch, a small one small The net content of the box is 100 grams. It is the most expensive one on the shelves. There is also a toothpaste marked on the packaging that "significantly improves the redness and bleeding of gums", priced at 49.9 yuan/branch.

"I can't figure out these ingredients. Anyway, there are toothpastes. How many differences can there be?" The reporter happened to meet a father who was buying toothpaste. Old brands will give priority to choosing to buy toothpastes with one free or attached to gifts. As for the functionality of toothpaste, Daddy Li said that as long as the packaging is written with fresh tone and whitening. At the same time as Dad Li purchased, the shopping guide on the side recommended him a combination set to buy 2 gifts 2. The toothpaste packaging claimed that it could quickly alleviate teeth sensitivity. 2, it can be scratched! "When the tourist pointed at the price list and informed Li Dad's combined set price of 71.5 yuan, Daddy Li was shocked.

The reporter then went to a large chain of a large chain in Hongshan District. The functional toothpaste in the oral care area also occupied several racks. These products are mainly anti -allergy and repair. According to the guide, the most expensive active peptide toothpaste toothpaste The price is 69.9 yuan. "It helps to relieve oral mucosa damage and promote damage repair. Our model is very good." However, the reporter stopped next to the toothpaste shelves to observe for ten minutes Traditional brands with a price of less than 20 yuan, functional toothpastes of more than 50 yuan, are not interested.

On an online e -commerce platform, the reporter found several more expensive toothpastes, a claim to specialize in tooth smoke stains. Ten times is better to use its fruit sour white toothpaste. The price is 138 yuan/branch. For treatment, the two starting price is 238 yuan/2. There is also an enzyme whitening toothpaste, which emphasizes the powerful whitening function of the product. The slogan of "10 billion activated enzyme catalyzed whitening", "non -physical friction whitening does not hurt the enamel" is marked on the poster of the product.

Netizens have mixed evaluations of this toothpaste, and some have said that the effect is good. "A pack of cigarettes formed every day after one month of removal effect". From the picture, you can see that the consumer's incisor’s incisor is in the middle of the incisor’s incisor’s middle tooth The yellowish smoke stains of the lower jaw teeth have been partially diluted.

Other consumers call on buyers to use it with caution. After using it, a allergic reaction has occurred. I suspect that the toothpaste has other irritating chemical ingredients. A consumer showed his own buyer show in the comment area, and his lips were red and swollen.

In addition to strong whitening, there are also stores sold "specializing in dental cave and fast repair" as product labels. The reporter asked a shop customer service specializing in dental cavity to repair functional toothpaste: Can you really make up for the tooth holes with this toothpaste? The reply given by the customer service is: 2 times for daily toothpaste, the surface of the teeth will slowly form a crystal, which will slowly repair the tooth holes.

"What is the crystal?" The reporter continued to ask. "This food -grade probiotic piperolol toothpaste is very good Effect, insisting on use it can prevent mothing and solid teeth. "Customer service said that the toothpaste is rich in regenerative silicon and calcium carbonate, which can repair damaged teeth. A protective film on the surface of the teeth has the effect of softening tartar and removing stubborn substances of the teeth. Functional toothpaste composition is complicated, mostly marketing gimmicks

Can the teeth really rely on brushing to make up? How is the "enzyme" whitening toothpaste strong whitening?

Jimu Journalists interviewed Yue Yuan, a dentist at the Central South Hospital of Wuhan University with these issues. The answer given by Dr. Yue by dental cavity can be rely on whether the dental cavity can be brushed back. The defect cannot be repaired by itself. It must be selected to recover the treatment to achieve the purpose of restoring the original form and function of the teeth. The ingredients of the "regenerative silicon 'and' lignol 'of the merchants cannot repair the tooth. Most of the promotional slogans such as "stay away from dental cavity" can be "anti -mothing hole, just one brush", and most of them are marketing gimmicks.

As for the "enzyme" strong whitening toothpaste claimed by the merchant, Dr. Yue said that whitening toothpaste is generally in three ways to bleach, increase friction or make visual illusion (white dye) to whiten the teeth. The proportion of friction particles and increased friction to achieve the whitening effect. In fact, the basic toothpaste also contains a large amount of friction agent. This way of whitening the friction agent, if frequent use of it for a long time, may damage the enamel and cause dental sensitivity. And whitening toothpaste contains oxides for bleaching teeth. This peroxide generally appears in 84 disinfectant, which has great damage to the gums of the teeth. Of course, the whitening effect will be relatively better. This effect depends on the bleach of the bleach agent content."

Dr. Yue further explained that enzymes are actually enzymes. They are based on animals, plants, fungi, etc., and add or do not add auxiliary materials. The microbial fermentation contains specific biological active ingredients. Enzyme toothpaste effect is better than ordinary toothpaste, but if it is a person with a sensitive physique itself, it may be allergic to the use of enzyme toothpaste.

Basic toothpaste can meet daily needs

Liu Li, the attending physician of the Department of Stomatology of Taikang Tongji (Wuhan) Hospital, told reporters that the more expensive the toothpaste, the better, but in common functional toothpaste, there are still two optional uses. "One is anti -sensitive toothpaste For the atrophy of the gums, the teeth sensitive caused by the exposure of the tooth root can be used. Anti -sensitive toothpaste can block the essential small tube of the teeth, thereby reducing the symptoms of dental sensitivity. One is to prevent caries toothpaste. Using anti -caries toothpaste, the fluoride in anti -caries toothpaste can make the teeth mine again and improve the corrosion energy of the teeth. "

So, can function toothpaste be used for a long time? Liu Li said that it should be negotiated for "function". Some effects are verified anti -caries toothpaste and anti -sensitive toothpaste can be used for selective use. Some anti -inflammatory and hemostatic toothpaste are not recommended for long -term use. Anti -inflammatory and hemostatic toothpaste is added. The pathogenic bacteria produce resistance, and also inhibit the activity of the normal flora in the mouth, cause the flora to disorders, which may cause new oral problems.

Liu Li said that the content of functional toothpaste on the market is large and complicated. It is best to use it under the guidance and suggestions of dentists. Although some functional toothpaste can temporarily relieve symptoms, most of them cure the standards and even cover up the original original. The appearance of the disease and the best time to delay treatment, it is recommended not to rely on such products for a long time. Basic toothpaste can actually meet the needs of daily cleansing teeth. Oral health should start with daily life, master the correct way to brush the teeth. The long axis of the tooth is 45 ° to clean the direction of the root tip, and the oral examination is performed regularly to effectively prevent oral diseases.
