Recently, many foreign experts are evaluating the safety issue of triclosan. Then, the news that the triclosan in toothpaste may cause cancer spread quickly in the internet. Is it really true? Does it actually cause cancer? In fact, there is no clear view about this question in the medical field. Triclosan is an antibacterial agent, which has the bactericidal effect to add in the toothpaste. But, if the triclosan content is excessive in toothpaste, it is easy to lead to cancer. According to the new national standard about toothpaste published in 2009, the triclosan content must be no more than 0.3%. Therefore, we should pay attention to some details in daily use of toothpaste. Firstly, do not squeeze too much toothpaste every time we brush teeth. Studies have indicated that the lauryl sulfate containing in toothpaste has the risk of inducing hepatotoxicity, leading to oral ulcers and even causing oral cancer. Therefore, in order to avoid its damage to health, people should not squeeze too much toothpaste in brushing teeth. Secondly, minimize the usage of toothpaste with fluoride. Fluoride can prevent the occurrence of tooth decay, but the long-term intake of fluoride is easy to harm the health. Especially children below four years old and the elderly are not suitable to use toothpaste with fluoride. Thirdly, do not think that drug toothpaste could play the role of dentist. We all know that medicines all have certain toxins. So the long-term of using drug toothpaste is very dangerous. What’s more, the drug toothpaste contains very few amount of medicine and it has no treatment to dental disease. To avoid the oral cancer or other issues caused by long-term non-treatment, patients should go to normal hospital to see doctors instead of relying on drug toothpaste. In the end, it is very important to read the ingredients in purchasing toothpaste. Although we have no acute opinion about it, we should know the chemical structure name of triclosan is trichloro hydroxy diphenyl ether, and its common names include INN, BAN, and USAN and so on. When people purchase the toothpaste, they should notice the content if there are the above ingredients showing in the list. Millions of people especially young people are fond of one thing. They are crazy for it, even forgetting to eat and sleep. Some of them realize dreams they cannot do in the reality. Do you know what is it? It is online games.
