fluorine
which element present in our toothpaste protects out tooth from the tooth decay?
The element that is used to fight tooth decay in toothpaste is fluoride. There are debates as to how safe and effective this element is when added to toothpaste or water.
Fluoride is the element typically used to prevent tooth decay. It helps strengthen tooth enamel and can reverse early signs of tooth decay. Many toothpastes and some public water supplies are fluoridated to provide this benefit.

I do not believe that anything is added to help tooth decay. Fluorides are added to fight (not help!) tooth decay.

Bacteria that populate the mouth metabolize simple carbohydrates (sugar) and produce the acid that causes tooth decay. Reducing the bacteria by effective and frequent brushing and flossing can reduce tooth decay. Limiting intake of sugar will also reduce decay. There is also a growing body of research that indicates xylitol as a sugar substitute may also be effective in reducing tooth decay.
