Professional opinion
The Fluorinol® in ELGYDIUM TOOTH DECAY PROTECTION increases fluoride intake by up to five times more within the first minute of use. The siliglycol also forms a protective film that prevents bacteria from colonising the mouth and keeps the fluoride on the enamel for longer, even after rinsing.. This improves its protection mechanism and daily oral hygiene. This toothpaste is ideal for brace wearers.
Composition
Fluorinol® (nicomethanol hydrofluoride, 1350 ppm fluoride ions, patented (Patent France 75. 23715))
- Binds firmly to the enamel to help remineralise, strengthen and protect the teeth.
Siliglycol (PEG-12 dimethicone)
- Film-forming agent that promotes fluoride take-up by the enamel.
Clinical results
- Nicomethanol hydrofluoride (Fluorinol®) helps to remineralise and protect the tooth enamel. It helps the enamel take up five times more fluoride, from the first minute of contact, compared with a standard mineral fluoride (1). This fluoride then helps remineralise the enamel and leaves it more resistant to the acid attacks that cause tooth decay.
- Siliglycol (PEG-12 dimethicone) is a film-forming agent that promotes fluoride take-up by the enamel (2).
