About this deal
Similar to your gut, your mouth contains thousands of different types of bacteria, many of them potentially harmful. Like brushing and flossing our teeth, using a mouthwash can help bring down the level of destructive bacteria in your mouth. Regularly swishing with mouthwash, whether to tame the scent of onions on your breath or to prevent cavities, is safe — even if it temporarily changes the balance of bacteria in your mouth. Did you know that probiotic toothpaste could be good for not only your oral or dental health but also your gut and general health? First, every part of your body is connected somehow. Therefore, a positive impact on one of your body parts could have a corresponding impact on your general health.
Studies increasingly support probiotic toothpaste as an effective way to deliver those good bacteria to where they will do the most good, better than a probiotic rinse ( 2). Other studies show that routine brushing with a probiotic toothpaste for even a few weeks can help decrease the levels of disease- and bad-breath-causing bacteria in your mouth, reduce plaque/biofilm buildup, and ease gum inflammation ( 3, 4). Our Moothwash uses new natural technologies such as a Lactobacillus Ferment to control oral bacteria. Each essential oil we use is chosen for its anti-bacterial action including Thyme, Cinnamon, Myrrh, and Clovebud. We also know that we could make the world’s most effective mouthwash, but if it doesn’t taste fresh, nobody will use it. So we use Stevia and a natural flavour so kids don’t go “Bleeuuh.” Before deciding on eliminating all bacteria in your body, you could consider supporting the good bacteria so that they can help keep the bad bacteria off, and also improve on most body functions that may somehow require their input. But different parts of our bodies have different needs. This is because each part serves a unique purpose. Well, so do probiotics! There is, therefore, something different to learn about oral probiotics, from what you already know as general information. But why probiotic toothpaste? The traditional toothpaste, if you’d allow me to call it, will always be the unbeatable solution for eliminating bacteria in your mouth. But remember that we need the good bacteria for several other purposes.Most of us were raised to believe that tooth decay and cavities were pretty much our fault because we had eaten too much candy and hadn’t brushed our teeth well enough. Plus, they were irreversible. The present study was a randomized controlled trial that included 30 healthy children (12 males and 18 females) assigned into two parallel groups (A, B). Each group consisted of 15 children aged between eight and 10 years from Dar Al-Rahma Orphanage in Damascus, Syrian Arab Republic. Ethical approval for this study was obtained from the Institutional Ethical Committee of the Faculty of Dentistry, Damascus University, Syria (IRP NO.UDDS-336-2782018/SRC1450). Fluoride was introduced to dentistry by Sir H. Trendley Dean in the year 1934 due to its effect in reducing demineralization of the tooth structure and increasing remineralization. Wide range of fluoride mouthwashes and tooth pastes are available to maintain oral hygiene and prevent caries.[ 14] Fluoride interacts with the metabolic and growth process in the bacteria by inhibiting the glycolytic enzyme which converts 2-P-glycerate to phosphoenol pyruvate (PEP). In the presence of fluoride, PEP inhibits the sugar transport in the PEP phosphotransfer system, causing bacterial cell death.[ 15] One of the important things I would look at is the ingredients. We are mostly allergic to different things, and more responsive to others. Probiotic toothpastes will come with specified ingredients, which should help you decide on which ones may work better for you.
How is your oral health? Do your brush your teeth often? It is usually advisable to brush our teeth after every meal. This way, you will not be giving chances to bacteria to root themselves in your mouth, causing bad breath and even cavities. You will like that most probiotic toothpastes come vegan-friendly. The ingredients used in manufacturing them ensure that they can be used by everyone, children included. Why not anyway? Afterall, they are meant to boost your oral and general health! Augmentation of natural killer cells activity through the induction of IL-12 production by monocytes/macrophages (anti-cancer)
The mouthwash is made with sodium bicarbonate, has a wonderful taste and it is made for a healthy body. Lastly, the generic probiotic mouthwash is for the next level of freshness and it is great for gum health.
Huang, X., Palmer, S. R., Ahn, S. J., Richards, V. P., Williams, M. L.,Nascimento, M. M., & Burne, R. A. (2016). A highly arginolytic Streptococcus species that potently antagonizes Streptococcus mutans. Applied andenvironmental microbiology, 82(7),2187-2201 Materials and methods: The present study was a triple-blind randomized controlled trial with two parallel groups (A and B), which included 30 healthy children. Each group included 15 children aged between eight and 10 years from Dar Al-Rahma Orphanage in Damascus, Syrian Arab Republic. Group A used 10 ml of probiotic mouthwash (ProbioClean) and group B used 10 ml of fluoride mouthwash (Colgate) for 60 seconds for 30 days. Turesky Modified Quigley-Hein (TMQH) plaque index was used in this study to record the values of plaque accumulation on days seven, 14, and 30. Observations of many native populations who ate traditional diets prior to the introduction of refined sugars and refined flour showed they suffered virtually no tooth decay — even when their teeth were ground down from eating gritty foods, despite never brushing their teeth or seeing a dentist (No, we are not suggesting you emulate this; brushing your teeth is one of the most effective mainstream ways to help protect your teeth from the physical effects of eating a less-than-optimal diet). The present study supports the use of probiotic mouthwash as an adjunct to mechanical therapy for the management of stage II periodontitis. G, Gürsoy H, İpçi ŞD, Cakar G, Emekli-Alturfan E, Yılmaz S.

More research needs to be done to prove how well oral probiotics can fight or prevent bad breath. 3. Prevent oral cancer This study compared the efficacy of probiotic and fluoride mouthwashes on plaque accumulation in three sections of the mouth: permanent anterior teeth, primary second molars, and permanent first molars. Permanent first molars are the most sensitive teeth to caries in young people aged eight to 10 years [ 15]. The results obtained showed that there was no significant difference between the groups after seven days of use, but after 14 and 30 days, the probiotic group showed more effectiveness in decreasing plaque accumulation than the fluoride group, which could be due to the drug resistance of S. mutans. Breaker studied the effects of fluoride on oral bacteria and proposed that fluoride riboswitch of S. mutans has the ability to push the fluoride ion from the cell membrane, and the resistance develops in that way [ 18]. Jothika et al. studied the colony counts of S. mutans after 30 days of using probiotic mouthwashes and proved the decrease in the bacterial count was sustained after the 30th day of usage of the probiotic mouthwash [ 19]. In a comparison of plaque accumulation between anterior and posterior teeth, anterior teeth had less degree of plaque in the three days in both groups and this agrees with Sreenivasan et al.'s study who studied plaque index in the dental arch and proved that anterior surfaces had lower plaque degree than posterior surfaces [ 20]. Additionally, turmeric can help to reduces teeth stains while also preventing the production of plaque. ( 3)
A prescription mouthwash containing chlorhexidine can treat gingivitis, a gum disease that causes gums to swell and bleed. And for mouth cancer patients, some prescription mouthwashes can help in the management of mouth sores that may occur with chemotherapy or radiation. Do you need probiotics for your dental health? I believe that you do. We all do. Probiotics are not only essential in ensuring the right levels of good bacteria are maintained but also make sure that the bad bacteria are eliminated.

J Dent Res. 2013;92(7):592-597. doi:10.1177/0022034513490168 A well-formulated mouthwash is needed to rinse away food missed by brushing, helps fight cavity-causing critters, and freshens your breath. Despite their usefulness for oral hygiene, some people have steered clear of them due to the controversy over some commonly used ingredients, so we’ve been particularly careful to choose safe and natural ingredients that have a function other than just an over-powering minty rinse. Our Moothwash is also used in Oncology hospitals and clinics across Australia as a gentler alternative for patients following radiation treatment and chemotherapy.The solution? This turmeric mouth rinse will fight irritation and inflammation, improving both dental and oral health—and you can make it yourself.
