| As written, the sentence assumes that only two brands of toothpaste exist. This sentence calls for the superlative form "most."

| "more" vs "most" does not come into it. "prefer" is enough, and "more" can be cut.

| Agreed. You can like something more or most, but prefer stands alone. It works equally well whether you a choosing among 2 or 200.

| prefer indicates that a person is MORE INCLINED to take a particular brand of toothpaste than another brand. "More" is redundant and superfluous.
