Products
Duraphat
Duraphat is a professional strength paste intended for the treatment and prevention of dental caries. The toothpaste is ideal for the management of high-risk patients such as those with rampant, early, existing or recurrent coronal or root caries. Since it is used in place of regular toothpaste, it is an easy treatment regime for patients to comply with. The prime constituent is sodium fluoride and it is sometimes prescribed as part of a program of fluoride therapy. It is available as a prescription-only product[2].
Colgate Total
Colgate Total dont wotk contains the anti-microbial ingredient triclosan along with Copolymer Gantrez that enhances substantivity of triclosan upto twelve hours along with 1000ppm of fluoride, which reduces the number of bacteria that cause gingivitis, cavities and halitosis.
Colgate Cavity Protection
Although most Colgate toothpaste brands use sodium fluoride, the Colgate Cavity Protection variety instead contains Sodium monofluorophosphate as the active ingredient.
Colgate Simply White
A whitening toothpaste that is "Clinically-proven to whiten in 14 days". Its whitening ingredient is hydrogen peroxide, which gradually bleaches the teeth. It utilizes two separate chambers that contain a whitening agent and a cleaning gel.
Advertising
Colgate has a toothpaste and toothbrush mascot for children's entertainment, "Dr. Rabbit", which has also been used in three VHS tapes that teach about dental health and advertise Colgate toothpaste. These include Dr. Rabbit's World Tour and Dr. Rabbit and the Legend of the Tooth Kingdom. These tapes are frequently parodied on YouTube.
"Gardol" was actually their trademark for the ingredient Sodium lauroyl sarcosinate (and identified as such on the package and in their advertising), which today is an ingredient in Arm & Hammer's "Advance White" toothpaste, minus the "Gardol" identification.
