The Science Behind Colgate’s latest Stannous Fluoride Toothpaste

Come join the Colgate team to learn about their latest innovation in oral care, Colgate Total Active Prevention.

Session Overview

Stannous fluoride has long been an effective antibacterial and anticaries addition to toothpaste formulas. However, in the past, its chemical properties in aqueous solution have made it difficult to stabilize in a ‘bioactive’ form. The recent development of a novel formulation of stannous fluoride stabilized with nitrate and phosphates (SNaP) has resulted in prolonged efficacy without compromising product experience and aesthetics.
