Is there anything special about Plaque Pro Release compared to regular Colgate Total other than arginine? I know Crest Pro-Health Advanced Gum Restore has glycine which supposedly has research that it helps stabilize stannous fluoride to help it penetrate down below the gums and inhibits bacterial growth.
This toothpaste seems to have arginine which I asked AI about and it told me (beware may be a hallucination):
Beyond pH modulation, arginine plays a vital role in biofilm disruption and maintaining oral homeostasis. It interferes with the way bacterial cells adhere to each other and can trigger bacteria within biofilms to alter their behavior, thereby preventing their adhesion to tooth surfaces. This action weakens the mechanical integrity of the biofilm, making it more susceptible to physical removal through brushing and other shear stresses. It is noteworthy that this biofilm-disrupting effect is specific to arginine and is not a general property observed with other amino acids like glycine or lysine.
