You might look at the dental industry and think that nothing has changed in years. A toothbrush is still a toothbrush, and there’s nothing fancy you can do with floss. Well, if you think that you are set with a toothbrush and some floss, your medicine cabinet is missing out on a lot. New dental products come on the market a lot more frequently than you might realize, and having a few extra products in your arsenal will make proper home dental care much easier. The following items are exciting new dental products on the market that every health conscious person should consider adding to their medicine cabinet.
SmartMouth Advanced Clinical Formula Mouthwash
Using SmartMouth is a smart decision for a mouthwash with true longevity. Its sales slogan is “SmartMouth is the only mouthwash that kills germs and provides fresh breath for 12 hours.” It also gets I.Q. points for preventing plaque and gum disease. So what is the genius ingredient behind SmartMouth? Its FDA-approved zinc ions. The Better Business Bureau backs up the statements made by SmartMouth. Clinical studies and peer reviews verify its claims. You may wonder what makes zinc ions so smart. These aggressive entities attack biofilm and block the production of sulfur compounds. Although many mouthwashes kill bacteria and eliminate existing sulfur compounds, only SmartMouth prevents the emergence of new ones. SmartMouth also gets bonus points for being alcohol-free and safe for diabetics and children.
Crest Complete Multi-Benefit Extra White + Scope Outlast
Customer reviews give this new toothpaste 5 stars for a fresh-breath feeling that lasts up to 5 times longer than regular toothpaste. They also verify Crest’s claim of revealing a whiter smile. Additionally, the toothpaste protects against tartar and cavities. People report their mouth feels as fresh as after a professional cleaning. They also rave about the peppermint flavor. They like the clean feeling so much that they change their snacking habits. To maintain that fresh feeling, some people are turning away from unhealthy food. Garlic and onion lovers, you’ll be happy to hear that the toothpaste eliminates the tell-tale odor of these foods.
Enamelon® Toothpaste
Enamelon is the new superhero against tooth sensitivity. Its patented re-mineralizing formula also prevents cavities and gum disease. Enamelon’s trio of weapons includes fluoride, calcium, and phosphate. These ingredients team up against the pain of cold, heat, contact, acids, and sweets. Enamelon is unique among toothpastes because it’s free of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). This ingredient acts like soap, using a foaming action that dissolves plaque. However, SLS impedes the act of fluoride deposition. The absence of SLS in Enamelon makes it more effective in preventing cavities. It promotes twice the fluoride uptake of other toothpastes. Another unique ingredient in Enamelon is the herb “spilanthes.” It stimulates the flow of saliva, which prevents tooth decay. It also puts the tingle in this toothpaste.
Enamelon was first introduced in the 1990′s, as a sodium fluoride toothpaste. The new formula contains stannous fluoride. This form of fluoride has the added advantage of killing bacteria. With a one-two punch against plaque and bacteria, stannous is more effective at preventing cavities and gum disease.High-fluoride preparations are typically only available at dental offices. Enamelon brings the benefits of stannous fluoride directly to the consumer.
Sonicare DiamondClean Electric Toothbrush
This gem of a toothbrush is clinically proven to remove up to 5 times more plaque than a manual toothbrush. It’s reported to whiten teeth in 1 week and improve gum health in 2 weeks. It has 5 modes: clean, gum care, white, polish, and sensitive. The ergonomic handle is Sonicare’s slimmest and lightest to date, and the toothbrush has two charging modes. DiamondClean is a cleaning dynamo, reaching deeply between teeth and along the gum line. However, its vibrating action is gentle, courtesy of diamond-shaped bristles. Two brush head styles are provided, standard and compact. A 2-minute timer helps you to brush the time recommended by dentists. A quad-pacer timer divides the time, so you cover all four quadrants of the mouth.Battery life is an impressive 3 weeks.
