Abrasivity of toothpastes: An in vitro study of toothpastes marketed in Norway

Acta Odontologica Scandinavica, 1987
The purpose of this study was to measure the abrasivity of 23 toothpastes available on the Norwegian market. Additionally, the pH was registered. The testing was based on The British Standards Institution's specification for toothpastes, using a profilometer technique to evaluate the abrasion. The results showed that the abrasivity ranged from 0.049 to

The Presence of Lead in Toothpaste

The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1973
Surface enamel was found to have a high lead content. It was conjectured that a source of this element might be the dentifrice and, thus, a number of commonly used dentifrices were analyzed for lead. Lead was detected in all the samples examined. In some brands, significant quantities of lead were detected in the toothpaste immediately adjacent to the ...

Determination of lead in toothpastes

Journal of Dentistry, 1975
Abstract Twenty-six dentifrices available on the British market have been tested for the presence of lead using atomic absorption spectroscopy. Details of the analysis are given using an organic extraction procedure to overcome spurious absorptions which can lead to grossly erroneous results. In no instance was lead found in any toothpaste at a level
