There are many uses for new inventions. Edible toothpaste is used in space and in society. For example, in the 1960’s, rocket ships (Apollo 11) were tight and cramped. These rockets could not fit a toilet or a sink in as the whole rocket was filled with mission-related equipment. In space this toothpaste was used so that a toilet or a sink was not needed to brush one’s teeth. As the flights were really long and oral health would become a problem, scientists wanted to solve this problem. These scientists
Introduction Toothpastes typically consist of: Mild abrasives to brush off any unwanted particles and light stains. Examples of abrasives include calcium carbonate, dehydrated silica gels, hydrated aluminum oxides, magnesium carbonate, phosphate salts and silicates.

BACKGROUND
for the determination of calcium carbonate in toothpaste and to determine the percentage of CaCO3 in toothpaste. For this experiment, an excess of HCl was added to a weighed quantity of toothpaste containing calcium carbonate. Back titration is used in this case instead of direct or forward titration as calcium carbonate is insoluble. From the two repeated back titrations that I’ve done, I’ve got an average of 23.73% of calcium carbonate in the toothpaste that I’ve tested. That is fairly near to the
That’s how I feel about toothpaste. If you read the box toothpaste comes in it's, a warning stating not to swallow and if swallowed call poison control. How extreme for something so commonly used. This is due to the potentially dangerous chemicals. Triclosan, SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) artificial sweeteners, fluoride, propylene glycol, (DEA) diethanolamine, microbeads and the list can go on an on. Your mouth one of the most absorbent places on your body. So toothpaste doesn’t have to be swallowed
Colgate has enjoyed the lead around the world with sales in over 170 countries and over 2 billion dollars, the United States has been their fiercest battle ground and one that Procter and Gamble’s Crest dominated for thirty years as America’s favorite toothpaste.

Procter and Gamble to compete began expanding their family brand into other oral health products, which included whitening, toothbrushes

This task also takes a great deal of sensation to know how hard I am brushing, that I should not swallow the toothpaste in my mouth, and that I should spit when My mouth gets full. I think the most significant sensation that is necessary for me when I brush my teeth is to know not to stick the toothbrush too far down my throat when I brush my tongue off. This is

The rear part of the handle contains a button that when pushed down also allows forward movement; this action squeezes the toothpaste cartridge. When the button is pressed a hole at the end of the handle opens up allowing the toothpaste to exist, when the button is released the hole closes and seals off the toothpaste. The end with the brush contains a cartridge full of dental floss. The use of cartridges
