Do you recommend spry toothpaste with xylitol and fluoride?
4 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Yes: Any toothpaste with Fluoride is beneficial, xylitol is also good. Know that the toothpaste you use is always secondary to the actual brushing, so as long as the toothpaste has fluoride, it is sufficient.

Not yet: Spry toothpaste is not yet approved by the american dental association (ada) so i can't endorse it. The ada tests all the ingredients and attributes of products to make sure they are safe and effective for you and your family. Please use an ada approved Fluoride toothpaste 3 times per day.

Spry: Yes the use of xylitol is very effective in fighting decay, the bacteria that cause decay are unable to use this sugar as food. So they die, .
