- Scientific Evidence Behind Advanced Dentifrice Technologies
Numerous laboratory and clinical studies have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of stabilized stannous fluoride,
sodium hexametaphosphate, and dentifrice formulations containing these ingredients. These studies led to the

Acceptance in 2006 based on its own body of research.

- A
History and Update of Fluoride Dentifrices
J. S. Wefel, PhD
Continuing Education Units: 2 hours
Date Course Online: 12/19/2006
- This course is a review and update of cosmetic and
therapeutic dentifrices, their impact on market shares and the development
of multi-benefit dentifrice technologies. The first therapeutic dentifrice
contained fluoride and entered into the market place in the mid 1950's. The
public was not convinced of the importance of such a product until the
American Dental Association (ADA) Seal of Acceptance was awarded to a
product in 1964. Both public and market pressures have resulted in a
continued development of new and improved products which not only have
therapeutic value but also cosmetic value.
