How Colgate Strong Teeth Toothpaste Works

Fluoride helps remineralize enamel and makes teeth more resistant to acid attacks from bacteria and sugars, thereby reducing cavity risk. Mild abrasives help remove plaque and surface stains, while surfactants aid in loosening debris for cleaning.

Dosage & Directions

Brush teeth thoroughly for 2 minutes, twice daily or as directed by a dentist. Use a pea-sized amount for children; spit out after brushing and avoid swallowing. Supervise children during brushing.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
