Fluoride toothpaste is a active key ingredient in toothpaste that fights cavities, gingivitis, plaque build-up, tartar and bad breath(from the bacteria in your mouth). It is in all toothpaste's such as Colgate or Crest. On the label it says not to swallow and that it should be external use, not internal. Unfortunately, according to recent studies on Oral and dental health care, people have died from ingesting fluoride toothpaste, so they are trying to come up with alternative solutions to this problem.
