Is fluoride or fluoride-free toothpaste better for kids?
According to Dr Saumya Saluja, fluoride strengthens enamel by promoting remineralisation and reducing early decay. Yet, as Dr Shalu Bhardwaj notes, fluoride-free toothpaste suits infants under two who may ingest it. Dr Kiran Dhanotra emphasises brushing supervision and dosage accuracy to prevent fluorosis and ensure safe, effective oral hygiene habits in children.
