Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Before modern day toothpaste people tried several different things to clean their teeth such as using eggshells, ash, ground oyster shells and salt. When an American dentist Peabody added soap to his toothpaste things started to change, but did they change for the better? Modern toothpaste includes all kinds of chemicals from natural ingredients to synthetically made ingredients. These ingredients are added to help with oral health. At least that’s what it’s supposed to be! However, some of the ingredients may do some harm to our well-being and to our environment. For this social action project, I discuss some effects of toothpaste ingredients on personal health as well as the environment. I also conducted an experiment to test teeth whitening claims and I checked to see if there are controversial microbeads in some toothpaste brands. My proposed action is to inform people of what is in toothpaste so they can make an informed decision and I suggest healthier alternatives such as homemade toothpastes with healthier ingredients.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
