Dental professionals were recently invited to an online educational webinar to hear about how Colgate Total delivers additional clinical benefits, over using an ordinary fluoride toothpaste.

Presented by Dr Daniel Bachteler (PhD), from Colgate’s Clinical Dental Research team, the aim of the webinar was to demonstrate the important role triclosan/copolymer technology plays in reducing plaque biofilm on oral hard and soft tissue, to help achieve whole mouth protection.  
Of the dental professionals who participated in the post webinar survey, 99 per cent of them agreed* that brushing with Colgate Total toothpaste delivers additional clinical benefits, over using an ordinary fluoride toothpaste for both themselves and their patients.

Bacteria accumulate on soft tissues, which act as reservoirs, and recolonise tooth surfaces following mechanical plaque removal.  Colgate Total works by reducing the bacteria load in the whole mouth, which in turn reduces the impact of bacterial recolonisation on tooth surfaces. Colgate Total also has unique sustained-release technology† which delivers up to 12 hours antibacterial protection even after eating and drinking.

Colgate Total leaves less bacteria to repopulate and form dental plaque on tooth surfaces, this means toothbrushing with Colgate Total results in less dental plaquebeing formed before your next brush,leading to better oral health outcomes.
