What is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and why is it an ingredient used in some oral care products?
SLS is a safe and effective cleaning ingredient in many consumer products, including many types of toothpastes. It’s the reason your toothpaste foams while you brush and helps remove food debris from teeth.
Is SLS safe for consumer use?
SLS has been extensively safety tested for use by consumers and is safe when used as directed.
For those who suffer from mouth sores (aphthous ulcers) using a toothpaste that is SLS-free will help reduce discomfort. A SLS-free mouth rinse that does not contain alcohol is also recommended.
Do all Crest toothpastes and rinse products contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate or Laureth Sulfate?
Crest Pro-Health Densify Active Repair Toothpaste does not contain SLS.
All Crest ProHealth Mouthwash products are SLS free.
