Crest switched from stannous fluoride to sodium fluoride several years
ago (some time in the early eighties--I only know from reading the labels;
I never heard any explanation of why).  As far as I know, all major
brands use sodium fluoride, with the exception of Colgate, which uses
"MFP" (sodium monofluorophosphate?).  Last time I saw a label, that's
what it said, but I don't know if it's still the same.

The only documentation I can offer is the labels themselves.
