Which still use stannous fluoride? I remember it was the original
formulation of Crest, with "Floristan". I believe sodium fluoride may be
more stable and have a longer shelf life.
But I believe you're right--it is the abrasive used that determines the
best form of fluoride.

Is there any difference in using a sodium fluoride gel vs. a stannous
fluoride in preventing cavities and sensativity, or are they equally
efficient? Assume both have a similar percentage of flouride. Thanks.
