- A
History and Update of Fluoride Dentifrices
J. S. Wefel, PhD
Continuing Education Units: 2 hours
Date Course Online: 12/19/2006
Date Revised Course Online: 01/27/2011
- 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.
