Consumers have increased demands on modern toothpastes.
A hygiene product must effectively remove bacterial deposits, freshen breath and contain safe and effective products that will comprehensively solve problems of the oral cavity as a whole.
All of the listed features are ideally matched by the “New Pearl” line of pastes produced by domestic manufacturers.
New Pearl Fluorine
Consumers who decide to entrust the health of their teeth to the manufacturer of this hygiene product note that after use, a pleasant feeling of freshness is felt in just a few minutes. It is also not possible to achieve ideal teeth cleanliness.
In addition, after opening, the paste gradually becomes more and more liquid.
Laboratory studies conducted by Roskontrol specialists showed that the prototype did not comply with safety requirements.

Active Ingredients
Any toothpaste contains various ingredients that perform their functions. To suppress the inflammatory process and treat certain oral diseases, antibacterial substances are added to toothpaste. The antiseptic component allows you to reduce the activity of microorganisms that contribute to the appearance of caries. In recent years, various enzymes have been used to influence metabolic processes in the oral cavity, which also dissolve plaque and remove food debris.
In order to improve the taste properties and enhance the consumer effect, food colorings, flavors and substances that maintain the plasticity of the mass are added to oral care products.
To relieve the symptoms of gum inflammation and treat stomatitis, the toothpaste includes some vitamins, extracts of medicinal plants, dietary supplements and substances that affect metabolism. Strengthening the enamel is achieved by adding minerals such as calcium and phosphorus. In some cases, fluorine is used, but only in permissible concentrations and combinations, since, when combined with certain substances, it becomes toxic.
Tensides facilitate the process of removing plaque, acting as a stimulator of foam formation. It is important to correctly maintain their concentration within 0.5-2%, otherwise this component provokes irritation of the mucous membrane.
Vilsen Group Aloe Extra Dent
Cheap toothpaste, which looks like curd, has a sickly sweet taste. This product will not be able to freshen your breath, because the product does not foam well and does not clean your teeth well.
After use, an unpleasant burning sensation remains in the mouth, caused by ingredients that are unsafe for the delicate tissues of the oral cavity.
Reviews
The products of the “New Pearl” series have a number of advantages. Consumers speak of the product as an effective assistant in daily oral care.
An affordable price is perhaps the most important advantage of a cleanser. If you have evaluated the capabilities of New Pearl pastes and noted certain pros and cons for yourself, share your opinion in the comments to this article.

Colgate Triple Action
This product can hardly be called a hygiene product. This manufacturer's toothpaste does not meet safety standards, which means a complete disregard for consumers and a lack of concern for their health.
The product contains much less fluorine than the manufacturers stated, and therefore not only does not cope well with disinfection, but also does not maintain the quality of the enamel.
Toothpaste - for every taste and budget
People always tried to monitor oral hygiene, using the most unusual means. For example, in Ancient Egypt, teeth were cleaned with ash and sand; in ancient Scandinavia, wool and chalk were used for this procedure, and in medieval Europe, even glass and coal. Russia had its own method: tooth enamel was cleaned with eggshells, and then with the resin of coniferous trees. Today we use toothpaste.
The Russian market offers many toothpastes from different countries, manufacturers and price categories. Such a wealth of choice, on the one hand, pleases, but on the other hand, it sometimes confuses us, because choosing the right toothpaste is half the success of preventing, and sometimes treating, caries. As a rule, we rarely read the composition of the paste, recommendations for use, most often we just buy what is intrusively advertised on television and radio.
The Roskontrol consumer rights protection society decided to find out which toothpastes are safe for our health and which do not meet accepted standards. ROCS Double Mint toothpaste Blend-a-med toothpaste “ 3-Effect Soft Freshness / 1-2-3 ”, Toothpaste with a light mint aroma “ New pearls Colgate Toothpaste Triple Action Natural Mint , Professional Series Toothpaste Splat Active/Active , Lacalut Fluor Preventive Toothpaste Aquafresh Maximum Toothpaste .
Grandma Agafya's recipes
A paste with a whitening effect, made on the basis of propolis and capable of relieving problems with gums and eliminating the appearance of tartar, does not have the declared properties.
This is confirmed by an independent examination conducted by Roskontrol specialists. Violations of production technology were identified in the product taken for analysis. The consistency of the product and the fluorine content do not meet the requirements.
We clean cleanly, without germs and irritation
The cleaning properties of toothpaste are associated with such a characteristic as abrasiveness (Abrasives are small particles of various compounds that mechanically polish tooth enamel). As a rule, calcium carbonate (chalk) or silicon compounds are used as abrasives. You need to understand that calcium carbonate in toothpaste is not a source of calcium and does not have the effect of restoring enamel. During testing, it was found that all samples have a good cleaning effect and meet the mandatory requirements. The best indicator is for Blend-a-med and Lacalut pastes. On the label of the Splat Professional toothpaste, the manufacturer stated a cleaning efficiency of 40.3%, in fact this figure was even higher and amounted to 57%.
Natalya Dmitrieva, Head of the Microbiology Laboratory of the Federal State Budgetary Institution "Central Research Institute of Insectology and Maxillofacial Surgery" of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, Ph.D.
“Based on the results of the examination, it was found that all tested toothpastes meet the requirements for them, that is, the total number of mesophilic, aerobic and facultative anaerobic species is normal. No microbial contamination was detected in any sample. None of the pastes are irritating. All samples tested are non-allergenic.”
SPLAT Medicinal herbs
According to the manufacturers, this paste will help everyone cope with gum problems. The product attracts consumers with its pleasant consistency and impressive size tube, the cost of which is very affordable.
A product made from medicinal herbal extracts will help get rid of plaque on teeth or bad breath. But in return, it will “give” a sore throat and the urge to cough.
Perhaps this is a consequence of the fact that the manufacturer, using dishonest marketing tactics and attracting attention with “eco-friendly” pictures on the tube, shamelessly uses ingredients that are unsafe for the human body.
A little about the manufacturer
The brand has been producing unique pastes for several decades and has gained popularity due to the combination of affordable cost and unsurpassed quality.
The New Pearl paste received many awards in the 70s and was recognized as the best product of the year.
Experts and buyers include the following advantages of the brand:
- innovative components that have an effective impact in the chosen direction;
- application of modern technological developments in product manufacturing;
- adapted cleansing base;
- the presence of a refreshing taste in the entire line of pastes;
- The product has passed clinical and toxicological tests.
The company is constantly improving its products and annually releases about ten new oral care products.
Agree, not every manufacturer can boast of such a pace of product expansion. The recipe is constantly being modernized, the taste is improving, the packaging is being replaced with more convenient tubes for the consumer.
Most buyers get acquainted with the product at an appointment with their dentist and prefer the New Pearl paste for many years.
Sensodyne F
Customer reviews of this paste vary. Some people like this product, but most people agree that this hygiene product is unreasonably overpriced.
The paste does not cope well with plaque, and the teeth do not get the promised whiteness.
After using Sensodyne F, your mouth does not feel fresh. The paste has no aroma or distinct taste, and resembles tooth powder reduced to a paste. In general, the consistency of the mass is very liquid, although the paste does not fall off the brush.

Hollywood smile
Many people are sure that they can whiten their teeth without a dentist, at home using toothpaste. You can agree or disagree with this, but manufacturers have adopted this too. Advertising for a beautiful, snow-white Hollywood smile never leaves the screens; on the packaging there is the same thing, perfect, white teeth. So do toothpastes whiten or not?
ROCS, Blend-a-med and Splat Professional pastes claimed a whitening effect. However, all samples participating in testing are not bleaching and do not contain components specific to this type of paste. Most likely, the manufacturers had in mind cleaning the enamel from contaminants - plaque. You can only whiten your teeth properly in the dentist’s office. This will be a professional whitening procedure. Unfortunately, no toothpaste will make your smile as snow-white as in the commercial. Toothpaste can only be expected to cleanse the enamel to its original color.
Marina Volkova, dentist, general director of the STOMADAKT clinic:
“The whiteness of teeth depends, firstly, on heredity. The whitest teeth are in people with blood groups I and II. Secondly, it depends on age: the younger the person, the denser the enamel and the whiter the teeth, and the older the person, the more transparent the enamel and the darker the teeth. Thirdly, from bad habits - coffee, nicotine. Over the course of its life, cracks and scratches form on the enamel. They are filled with food dyes (pigments), which leads to darkening of the tooth color, and nicotine tars sometimes make the situation simply catastrophic. And, of course, no toothpaste can cope with severe darkening of the enamel.”
Silka Dent
Beautiful girls who advertise this inexpensive toothpaste and assure that the “triple effect” will be visible tomorrow are unlikely to use this paste to clean their own teeth. The reason for this is the “complex” composition of the hygiene product, which is not beneficial for teeth.
According to consumers, Silka Dent paste is not worth buying, despite its affordable price. You will not be able to remove plaque or achieve fresh breath with such a product.
Healthy teeth are another reason to smile. A smiling person is open to communication, easily finds friends and makes the necessary acquaintances. A high-quality toothpaste that meets standards and is produced without violating technology helps you not to be ashamed of your own smile.
Is fluoride normal?
Fluorine is a vital element for the body. It is especially important that adequate amounts of fluoride enter the human body, since it is a component of tooth enamel. With insufficient or excessive fluoride consumption, the formation of tooth enamel is disrupted and dental diseases develop. With a lack of fluoride, caries occurs. With an excess of fluoride, fluorosis occurs (first, white spots appear on the teeth, then yellow and brownish, and then the bones are affected).
, Blend-a-med , Lacalut and Aquafresh
toothpastes contained the most fluoride , while ROCS had none.
In the labeling on the tube of Splat Professional toothpaste, however, in fact, fluoride was found in the amount indicated on the secondary packaging - the box in which the tube is enclosed. Such labeling, which contradicts itself, is a serious violation. According to experts, the fluorine content in none of the samples exceeds the level allowed by technical regulations. (Technical Regulations of the Customs Union TR CU 009/2011 “On the safety of perfumery and cosmetic products”). It is worth noting that the benefits of fluoridation of toothpastes are questioned by some doctors.
Is fluoride in toothpaste harmful or beneficial?
Andrey Mosov, head of the expert direction of NP Roskontrol, doctor: “The need for fluoride for the formation of tooth enamel is not questioned by any of the specialists: they only argue about whether fluoride enters the body through local penetration into the dental tissue or with a small amount of dental paste that is swallowed when brushing your teeth. One way or another, the preventive and even therapeutic effect of fluoridated toothpastes in relation to dental caries can be considered proven. Toothpaste without fluoride is necessary only in those regions where there is an excess of fluoride in drinking water - for example, in some settlements in the Moscow region. You can find out about the situation specifically in your area of residence at the dental clinic or the local Rospotrebnadzor office. If we talk about Moscow, where the water supply is from a surface source - river water, poor in fluoride - then the use of toothpastes with fluoride is mandatory here.”
