High Fluoride Toothpaste

[StinkyWoo]

My dentist mentioned he was a believer in remineralisation of teeth and reversing of early signs of decay and said I should be using a mouthwash (I use Colgate Fluoriguard) and a high fluoride toothpaste, as we were talking of my phobias etc I forgot to ask him further on what toothpaste he would recommend I use or one he could prescribe as I have been suceptable to decay.

I had a search on Google and Colgate have the prescription only toothpastes -Duraphat which I would really like to use, I thik the 2800 and not the 5000 So do I have to go back to have another appointment with my dentist to request to have a prescription? or can I just tell the receptionist this is what I would like and he could prepare a prescription. He only saw me yesterday....

I'd put a call in and see what they have to say.

my dentist has prescribed me duraphat for the same problem its tastes like normal toothpaste and i brush with it morning and night the only difference is you do not rinse your mouth or eat or drink for 30 minutes afterwards to give the toothpaste the best chance of doing its work.
