Don’t take this app as gospel. I sent an enquiry why my fluoride free toothpaste is rated “poor” and yet a a poison based fluoride toothpaste was rated “good” and here is their response:
“ Fluoride, when used as recommended, is considered safe and effective in preventing tooth decay. The concentrations found in toothpaste (1000 to 1500 ppm) are designed for daily oral care without posing risks. Most cases of overexposure come from sources like water, not toothpaste.
By following guidelines, such as using a pea-sized amount for children, the risk becomes negligible. The Yuka App categorizes it as no risk based on these established guidelines and findings.”
