what is the main ingredient in toothpaste?

it will either be sodium fluoride or sodium monofluorophosphate

The three main ingredients are sodium monofluorophosphate, sodium fluoride, and water.

ok finally an answer lol thnx!!

thanxx!!!!!!!!!!!!:))

I am very careful to avoid toothpastes that have Fluoride in them because the flouride in the water is already at levels that can cause fluoridation and I really don’t want to make it any more likely.

Toothpaste is a complex mixture。It’s usally made of friction agent(such as calcium carbonate ,calcium hydrophosphate),moisturizing agent(such as polyethylene glycol),surface active agent (such as sodium lauryl fulfate,2 - sodium para-button),thickening agent(such as carboxymethyl cellulose,antlers pectin),sweetening agents (such as propanetriol,cyclohexylamine sodium ),antiseptic agent (such as potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate ),activity additives ( such as chlorophyl ,fluoride ) and colorants ,flavor.

The major ingredient is a surfactant, just the same as any cleaning or hygiene product. Most will also contain fluoride to prevent tooth decay.
