Professional opinion

The Fluorinol® in ELGYDIUM TOOTH DECAY PROTECTION toothpaste enables the fluoride to bind firmly to the teeth after the first minute of brushing. This enhanced protection means better daily oral hygiene. This toothpaste is particularly recommended 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).
