FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW DO I TAKE A DENTAL PROBIOTIC?
We recommend savoring 1 tablet 1-2 times a day in your mouth after brushing and flossing and when eating or drinking can be avoided for 30 minutes after. This gives the beneficial bacteria a chance to colonize in your mouth without being flushed away by food or drink.
 
WHAT IS A DENTAL PROBIOTIC?
A dental probiotic increases the levels of natural and beneficial bacteria in the mouth to support teeth and gums, as well as overall health and wellness. Most people lack sufficient beneficial bacteria in their mouths to keep harmful bacteria in check, so that's why it is important to supplement with a dental probiotic.

HOW LONG DO I TAKE A DENTAL PROBIOTIC FOR?

While we strongly recommend that our probiotics be taken for as long as symptoms of oral disease are present, we also suggest that they be taken during times of good health to keep your oral microbiome from reverting back to its previous state. However, if you'd like to track the specific bacteria present in your mouth, we recommend that your dentist analyze results of a salivary test to determine an exact protocol.


WHO SHOULD TAKE SUPER TEETH DENTAL PROBIOTIC?
Our dental probiotic is designed for both children and adults, and the dose is the same for both as well. How easy is that?!

WHEN SHOULD I TAKE IT?
We recommend taking it right after brushing and flossing for a maximum clean surface area for bacteria to colonize. 

CAN SUPER TEETH DENTAL PROBIOTICS IMPROVE MY OVERALL HEALTH?
Scientists have found a strong connection between oral health and overall health. The mouth is the gateway to the body and is systemically connected to the digestive, cardiovascular and nervous systems, to name a few. Studies have suggested that oral bacteria and the inflammation associated with gum disease might play a role in several other diseases. 

IS IT SAFE FOR CHILDREN TO TAKE?
Yes! Our dental probiotic is safe for children, but we always recommend checking with your pediatrician if you have any concerns. We also recommend parents use their best judgement as to whether the mints may be a choking hazard, however they may be cut or crushed for small children.

IS IT SAFE TO TAKE DURING PREGNANCY OR NURSING?
Yes, and we actually recommend it! Studies have shown that a mother's oral bacteria may be linked to the bacteria that initially inhabits her baby. If you do have any concerns though, we always recommend checking with your doctor first.

IS IT SAFE FOR ANIMALS?
Unfortunately, no.  Our fresh minty flavor is enhanced by xylitol, which is toxic to dogs and other animals.

HOW MUCH XYLITOL IS IN EACH TABLET?
If your furry friend has gotten into your probiotics, tell your veterinarian there are 498mg of xylitol in each tablet. 

IS IT VEGAN?
Yes! All of our products are vegan-friendly.

IS IT GLUTEN-FREE?
Yes!

IS IT NON-GMO?
Yes! Our dental probiotic is non-GMO.

WHERE ARE SUPERTEETH DENTAL PROBIOTIC MADE?
Our dental probiotics are made in the USA. 

DOES IT REPLACE DIGESTIVE PROBIOTICS?
No, the beneficial bacteria strains in our dental probiotics are designed specifically for the mouth with benefits that pertain to the teeth, gums and oral cavity. 

DO THE PROBIOTICS REQUIRE REFRIGERATION?
No. Our dental probiotics can be stored at room temperature.

HOW DO THE BACTERIA STAY ALIVE IF THEY ARE NOT REFRIGERATED?
Our bacteria are in a dormant state while they are in the bottle. As soon as they make contact with your saliva they activate and begin to colonize.

PREBIOTIC MINERAL TOOTHPASTE

WHAT IS THE PERCENTAGE OF HYDROXYAPATITE IS IN SUPER TEETH PREBIOTIC MINERAL TOOTHPASTE?
We have formulated our toothpaste with 10% regular (non-nano) hydroxyapatite.

DOES GLYCERIN PREVENT HYDROXYAPATITE FROM REMINERALIZING ENAMEL?

Unfortunately, there is some misinformation circling the internet regarding the ingredient, glycerin. The idea that glycerin prevents hydroxyapatite from remineralizing enamel appears to have originated from the work of Dr. Gerard Judd, a retired chemistry professor who published a book in 1996 called “Good Teeth, Birth to Death.” In the book, Dr. Judd argues that glycerin is a harmful ingredient in toothpaste because it coats the teeth and prevents them from absorbing the minerals they need to stay strong.

There are no studies that prove Dr. Judd’s theory that glycerin impedes remineralization. In fact, glycerin is highly water soluble so once it touches the mouth, it dissolves immediately and will release anything that's tied to it, such as hydroxyapatite. 

WHERE IS SUPERTEETH PREBIOTIC MINERAL TOOTHPASTE MADE?

Our toothpaste is made in the USA.
