Abstract

The paper discusses how different components in toothpaste relate to dental health as a whole. This was done by using a case study of Marvin's Toothpaste. It reviewed the functions and efficiencies of key ingredients concerning oral hygiene. The research seeks to shed more light on the best formula of toothpaste for better dental health.
