  1. To reduce tooth decay most toothpastes contain a
    1. Bromide
    2. Fluoride
    3. Iodide
    4. Chloride
Correct Option: B

Fluoride in toothpastes prevent tooth decay from progressing and can even reverse, or stop, early tooth decay. It works by promoting a chemical reaction in tooth enamel that draws in replacement minerals including calcium. Fluoride incorporates itself into enamel weakened by acid attack, making the tooth more resistant to future acid attacks.
