For me it's Clinx.. it seems to have imbedded grains of sand or the like to help scrub away the smoking and vodka stains..

in fact, i think it's the best i've ever used

Clinx...me too before except my dentist said it wears down the enamel over time and suggested Vitadent which is really good.

I was told by someone that most of the Korean toothpaste didn't contain any fluoride. Does anyone know if this is correct?

Anti Plaque because it has very fine abrasives in it
Second favourite is 2080 cause its very similar to the above.
Clinx is ok too, sand in it is a bit chunky though

My Korean workmate who used salt all his life now has gum disease.

I'm not sure but it could be.
One brand of toothpaste they sell here(don't know if it is Korean) and is easily available is CloseUp. It has fluoride in it.

2080? I don't trust that stuff anymore, after looking really closely on the package one day. Here's what the 2080 means:

����� ������ ���Ͽ츦 �������� 20���� �ǰ��� ġ�Ƹ�
80������ �������ڴ� ġ���� VISION�� �����ϱ� ���� ������
��ǰ �Դϴ�.

Loose translation: Using our company's expertise, we developed a product that keeps twenty (20) healthy teeth until the age of eighty (80).

Twenty teeth?!!?!
