Objectives: This study was conducted to survey the currently available fluoride-containing oral hygiene products in Korea to provide consumers with information regarding the concentration and form of fluoride in each product, as well as to determine whether the information was easy to understand. Methods: A total of 64 types of domestic commercial oral hygiene products were purchased from an offline market and evaluated. Results: The domestic commercial toothpaste products contained fluoride in the form of sodium fluoride (NaF) and sodium monofluorophosphate (SMFP). In this study, toothpaste containing 1,000 ppm fluoride compounds accounted for the largest proportion (61.5%). Toothpastes containing below 1,000 ppm fluoride accounted for 34.6%, while toothpastes with fluoride above 1,000 ppm fluoride accounted for 3.9%. Toothpaste containing more than 1,000 ppm fluoride has not been popularized domestically. Mouthwash products contained fluoride compounds at less than 300 ppm concentration. Of the five types of mouthwash products, only two types had labels indicating fluoride concentration. In addition, the location of the labels indicating fluoride concentration differed between manufacturers and even within the same manufacturer. Conclusions: It is important to popularize toothpaste with fluoride levels above 1,000 ppm so that a broader selection of toothpaste can be offered to consumers in need. Standardized information needs to be provided for consumer convenience to aid in choosing appropriate oral hygiene products.
