You’ve probably heard of Colgate's Pro-Argin™
technology in toothpaste designed to treat teeth sensitivity. Here's
how this solution works on a microscopic scale.
Pro-Argin™ is a combination of three substances:
L-arginine, calcium carbonate, and fluoride. L-arginine (or simply
"arginine) is an amino acid that helps protect tissues in the
body and heal wounds. Calcium carbonate acts as a supplement to
provide the body with calcium. Flouride is a compound that is
essential to preventing cavities.
