The
mouth is one of the main ways of contact of our organism with the
outside. A healthy mouth has an enormous influence on the general state
of health of people, as it can prevent pathogenic microorganisms from
entering the body.
Nowadays, the population is becoming more and more and better informed about mouth care.
This
is due to the efforts of the health collective and public
administrations, which have promoted education campaigns and general
publicity on the subject, which has contributed to the population
becoming increasingly aware that the correct state of health of the
mouth provides physical, mental and social welfare, which translates
into an increase in the adoption of hygienic measures of a preventive
nature.

know the history of toothpaste, we must go back to Ancient Egypt. It
can be said that in this civilization, so advanced, there were already

leaves, flowers, myrrh, crushed egg shells, oxen’s fingernails and
pumice stone.
