Toothpaste is a paste or gel used to clean the teeth. It removes food or plaque that has built up on the teeth, giving them a better appearance and freshening breathe. Many formulas contain fluoride which helps to strengthen teeth. Most toothpastes are sold in soft, flexible tubes, although some are also sold in hard, tube-like containers.
