Roothpaste has to be neutral Ph. If it were an acid or a base, it would eventually dissolve the teeth
any concerted alkali is weak alkali
The toothpaste acts as an alkali against the acid produced by your mouth that coats your teeth. By applying the base (an alkali is a base that is soluble in water) to the acid, a neutralisation reaction occurs. Therefore, it will prevent your teeth from being eaten away by the natural acid produced by your mouth.">The toothpaste acts as an alkali against the acid produced by your mouth that coats your teeth.

toothpaste is an alkali because bacteria uses acid to eat away at teeth so toothpaste manufactures include alkali in their recipe to neutralize this acid, it also works as a cleansing agent to keep our teeth white! - hope this helps
Yes it netralises acid in gums and teeth
Yes, From my science teacher I was told toothpaste is an Alkali as it breaks down the acid from your teeth, I think anyway? all the best
Toothpaste is generally slightly acidic due to the presence of ingredients like citric acid or phosphoric acid. These acids help to break down food particles and bacteria on the teeth, aiding in the cleaning process.
Yes it is acid would be horrible on your teeth - wouldn't it?
Toothpaste is generally slightly basic (alkaline) in nature. This helps neutralize acids produced by bacteria in the mouth and can help prevent tooth decay.
Toofpaste is am owkawi
H2O (water) is neutral, neither an acid nor an alkali.
And acid plus an alkali produces water and a salt.
When an acid reacts with an alkali, the two products formed are salt and water. This reaction is called neutralization, where the acid donates a proton (H+) to the alkali to form water, and the remaining ions from the acid and alkali combine to form a salt.
