How your patients can protect 100% of mouth surfaces

Colgate introduces its new Colgate Total, which helps protect 100% of mouth surfaces.

Ordinary fluoride toothpastes# limit outcomes by providing fluoride protection to 20% of mouth surfaces (teeth). Ordinary fluoride toothpastes# do not fight bacteria. Immediately after brushing, bacteria quickly repopulate on 100% of mouth surfaces:

  • Hard tissue (20%) – teeth
  • Soft tissue (80%) – tongue, cheeks, gums.

This can increase the risk of common oral health issues such as plaque, tartar, gum problems and malodour.

New Colgate Total with dual-zinc and arginine fights bacteria on all mouth surfaces to help your patients achieve whole mouth health.*

New Colgate Total with dual-zinc and arginine demonstrates superior reduction of bacteria versus ordinary fluoride toothpaste, 12 hours after brushing* on:

  • Teeth: 38.3% bacterial reduction
  • Tongue: 39.7% bacterial reduction
  • Cheeks: 35.4% bacterial reduction
  • Gums: 25.9% bacterial reduction.

Superior reductions of plaque and gum problems versus ordinary fluoride toothpaste at three and six months.¥

New Colgate Total is clinically proven to reduce plaque (by 30.1 %; p < 0.001) and gum problems (by 26.3 %; p < 0.001) when compared to ordinary non-antibacterial fluoride toothpaste after six months.
