Denta-Med Dry Mouth Gel - Information
Denta-Med Gel provides multiple benefits. One product for COMPLETE Oral Care
Delivering long lasting moisture and hydration to dry, parched mouths, whilst cleaning and protecting teeth.
Denta-Med Gel contains Fluoride (Sodium Fluoride 1,000ppm) safe for children 3 yrs +
In addition, Denta-Med Gel contains Zinc Chloride, Cetylpyridinium Chloride and Denta-Med's proprietary chitin (naturally derived polysaccharide (vegan)
Denta-Med Dry Mouth Gel provides up to 8 hours (overnight) relief from Dry Mouth symptoms
Denta-Med Gel is muco-adhesive (and water soluble). It forms a permeable barrier inside the mouth, adhering to the hard and soft tissue (teeth, tongue, cheeks).
Being water soluble, means the Gel does not build up in the back of the throat and become a potential chocking hazard (safe to use in ICU, palliative Care and Aged Care settings)
Denta-Med Gel cleans, protects, moisturises, hydrates. It soothes the mouth, nurturing oral mucosa and gingival tissue.
Denta-Med replicates saliva. Where there is no saliva present, Denta-Med Dry Mouth Gel replaces/replicates its very important protective role in the mouth.
Saliva quality may be compromised (thick/stringy) or saliva glands may not function due to automimmune disease (Sjogren's disease) or saliva glands may have been irradiated or surgically removed (cancer therapies)
How to Use - As your Everyday Toothpaste (Replaces regular toothpaste)
Important to Note; Do NOT use regular toothpaste in conjunction with Denta-Med Gel. Denta-Med Gel's formulation is ionic (and regular toothpaste is anionic) - They are NOT compatible.
Apply a pea sized amount of Denta-Med Gel onto a soft, small head toothbrush (we recommend EMBI bamboo charcoal toothbrush). Gently brush the surfaces of the teeth at a 45degree angle at the gumline. Brush for a minimum of 2 minutes (for the fluoride to uptake). Spit out the residue. Best practise, brush 3 times daily.
Denta-Med Gel is suitable for dry and highly sensitive mouths.
Denta-Med Dry Mouth Gel is a long lasting, hydrating formulation. Using gentle cleansers that are low foaming. Denta-Med products do NOT contain Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (a well known, anionic irritating surfactant). Denta-Med products do NOT contain Alcohol, Xyloitol, Sorbitol, Silica (abraisive), Chlorhexidine, Triclosan, Gluten, Sugar, Nuts, Dairy or Egg.
Denta-Med Gel soothes and comforts, cleans and protects, moisturises and hydrates. It does NOT dry out, sting or burn the mouth. It is safe to use multiple times daily.
