• Tooth decay in children

How to use

For brushing after every meal, with a soft toothbrush such as the ELGYDIUM Junior brush. In the case of fluoride supplements from other sources (water, salt, etc.), consult a dentist or doctor.

Professional opinion

Protecting children’s first permanent teeth from decay is essential for life-long healthy teeth. Healthy habits encouraged during early childhood must be maintained. ELGYDIUM Junior Bubble Gum toothpaste allows the fluoride to bind firmly to the teeth after the first minute of brushing. Its cleaning action is gentle on gums.
 

Composition

Fluorinol® (nicomethanol hydrofluoride, 500 ppm fluoride ions, patented by Pierre Fabre Laboratories),

• 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, even after rinsing.

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 brushing, 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, even after rinsing (2).
