Healthy teeth sparkle. Your toothpaste doesn't need to!

Please be aware of what has become a big concern for many dentists in the United States including our practice Cosmetic Dental Associates.  

In the last few years Crest Toothpaste has been placing blue beads in their toothpaste to make it sparkle.  

Come to find out, these beads are actually polypropylene plastic.  

There appears not be any research that says if it's okay or not to have these in your toothpaste. 

Regardless we're starting to see patients show up for their cleaning with these blue beads around their gums!.

This is something the public should know about.
