Product Information

Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication.

Many people will also want to look for a toothpaste with fluoride in it; however it's not necessarily a "must-have" for everyone, except kids, says Dr. Field (along with a few of our other experts). Authority to prescribe an Authority medicine is granted for specific indications and/or for certain patient circumstances. Authority may be obtained by telephone to Medicare Australia (known as "phone approval") or in writing from an authorised delegate of the Minister for Health. In case the toothpastes in the lists above don’t fit your needs, I’ve included some more options below. If you have excellent dental health, maintaining it should be your utmost priority. All-in-One Toothpaste is the multi-tasking hero you need to make sure everything is taken care of. From preventing cavities to keeping your teeth strong, it is formulated to provide much-needed care and maintain overall hygiene.My three sons, ages three, five, and six, rarely get excited about brushing their teeth. But I left this product out for them to try without any fanfare and observed their reactions. While some people experience tooth sensitivity when using teeth whitening products, Colgate Total Whitening contains stannous fluoride, which helps offset that effect. (Although Dr. Field adds that if you have sensitive teeth already, whitening toothpaste could exacerbate it, in which case we recommend trying Crest Pro Health Gum and Sensitivity Gentle Whitening.) Tom's of Maine Silly Strawberry Toothpaste will clean and care for your kids' teeth with the ADA Seal of Approval, and it tastes like candy without any artificial ingredients. When you are shopping for toothpaste, you want to look for ingredients specific to the goals for your own oral health. Sometimes this is obvious like if you're experiencing teeth sensitivity or your teeth are yellowing. But others, like gum recession, demineralization, or a propensity toward cavities, only your dentist may notice.

A: Teeth whitening toothpaste can help remove surface stains and lighten the shade of your teeth, but for more noticeable results, consider professional whitening treatments. If you have tried a non-mint toothpaste, please leave a comment to let others know how you found it. Jump to a section A non-mint fluoride free toothpaste that contains no fluoride and which does contain an alternative remineralising agent. Calcium phosphates (such as hydroxyapatite) help re-harden the tooth surface in a similar way to fluoride. These ingredients are newer than fluoride and are still undergoing long term studies, but are showing a lot of promise. They are normally more expensive than fluoride, but there is lots of evidence supporting their effectiveness. Fluoride is a vital ingredient to toothpaste, and only toothpastes which contain fluoride will normally be recommended by dentists. As with the list above, the recommendations in the table below cover various countries. Availability may vary depending on your location. Brand

Klēn's natural toothpaste uses Bentonite Clay, a fluoride alternative with antibacterial properties; aloe leaf extract; and tea tree leaf oil instead, which Dr. Tozzi says is "abrasive enough to clean while still being gentle on enamel." Dr. Devore adds that he likes tea tree oil in toothpaste thanks to its antibacterial and antiviral properties. The recommendations in the table below cover various countries.
