The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) report that over the past decade the prevalence and severity of dental caries (cavities) has dramatically decreased, while the percentage of children with dental fluorosis has reached an all-time high of 48% (as of August 2005). Experts affirm that both these trends can be directly attributed to the increased use of fluoride as a means to promote better dental health.

Dental fluorosis is a condition that primarily affects the teeth of children age 6 and under

and is characterized by black and brown stains, as well as cracking and pitting of the teeth caused by the over-ingestion of fluoride. Much debate surrounds the source of the fluoride leading to the increase in fluorosis in our youth, with fluoridated water being amongst the most controversial of the potential culprits. Analysis shows that though fluoridated water might potentially contribute to the spreading cases of fluorosis, the levels of fluoride found in both typical and "kid-friendly" toothpastes far exceeds that found in treated water.

In August of 2001, the CDC urged major toothpaste manufacturers to research and develop low-fluoride toothpaste options. To date, little attention has been paid to these requests, yet lower-fluoride toothpaste options have been available in certain areas of Europe for quite some time now. In fear of losing the ability to label their toothpaste as "anti-cavity", many U.S. manufacturers refuse to reduce the levels of fluoride in their products (the U.S. FDA requires that products must contain 1,000-1,100 ppm of fluoride in order to be labeled as anti-cavity).

Though countless variables are potentially contributing to the increase in fluorosis, many are beyond our control. One area, however, that we maintain full control over is the toothpaste we allow our children to use. With bubblegum and cotton candy flavored children's toothpastes now available, Little Johnny can't help but sneak a little gulp here and there. Additionally, sub-lingual (under the tongue) absorption of fluoride found in toothpaste is inevitable causing each additional brushing to increase the potential likelihood of fluorosis. So the Catch 22 that exists is this: not enough topical fluoride might mean an increased risk of cavities, but an over-ingestion of that same fluoride could result in permanent dental aberrations. So which is the lesser of the two evils?

Gano Excel carries a toothpaste product called Gano Fresh. Gano Fresh is certified as fluoride-free (see below) and contains Ganoderma lucidum, the powerful "King of Herbs". A number of Ganoderma's health-promoting traits make it the perfect addition to a fluoride-free dental care product. Now the choice between a healthier mouth and the potential consequences of fluoride overdose (especially amongst children) just got easier. Understanding the genius behind Gano Fresh is not only beneficial to you and your family, but to all the lives you touch.
