Fluoride is naturally occurring mineral. It is the most important ingredient to look for in a toothpaste. Although there are people who argue against using fluoride toothpaste, dental professionals like Dr. Meena Wilde and Dr. Natalie Swoboda emphasize that the fact that the incidence of tooth decay has decreased so significantly in the past 50 years is because of fluoridated toothpaste.

Their FAQ
Answers from their website.
What are Temporary Anchorage Devices (TAD) ?
Temporary anchorage devices, or TADs, are small titanium dental implants or anchors used in certain orthodontic cases to help achieve quicker tooth movement with more efficiency and comfort. TADs may be used in addition to braces or as an alternative to headgear.
How are TADs placed?
A strong anesthetic is used to numb the gum tissue and the jaw surrounding the area where the temporary anchorage device will be placed. Once the area is numb, your doctor will gently place the TAD through the gum tissue and firmly into the jawbone. The placing of a TAD is quick and may be over before you know it. While your doctor is placing the TAD, you may feel slight pressure, but within a day, you will no longer be able to feel the TAD. Your TAD is removed once your treatment is complete, or when it is no longer needed to help straighten your teeth. Removal of a TAD is a comfortable procedure that takes just a few minutes.
What can I do to relieve pain caused by my TAD?
If you do feel any pain from having your TADs placed, Tylenol® is recommended to help relieve your pain. If you continue to experience discomfort or pain days after your treatment, please contact your dentist as soon as possible.
How can I keep my TAD clean?
A TAD can be cleaned the same way you clean your braces: by brushing your teeth at least three times a day. When your TAD is placed, we will also provide you with an antimicrobial mouthwash that you will need to use twice a day.
WHAT IS THE IDEAL AGE TO GET BRACES?
Typically, by age 11, adolescents have lost all of their baby teeth and their adult teeth have settled in. At this age, kids’ bodies are rapidly developing, so it’s the perfect time to address their need for braces. The longer you wait, the more complicated orthodontic care for children and teens can become.
What is Orthodontics?
Orthodontics, dentofacial orthopedics or orthodontia, is a specific form of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misplaced or poorly positioned teeth as well as facial abnormalities.
What is an Orthodontist?
An orthodontist is a dental professional or specialist whose primary focus is to straighten misplaced teeth. They will work to diagnose and prevent malpositioned teeth and develop treatment plans specific to the patient.
What is the Difference Between an Orthodontist and a Dentist?
Although many assume that orthodontists and dentists are quite similar, their roles are quite different. A dentist will focus on the health of teeth, the mouth, jaw, gums, and nerves found in this region, whereas an orthodontist’s focus is a little more specialized towards treating misplaced teeth.
