Elgydium Decay Protection Toothpaste

Tooth decay (often called dental caries) is one of the commonest health complaints in the world.

It’s caused by sticky deposits called plaque that are normally present in the mouth and convert food into acids. If plaque is allowed to collect over time, it will harden into a substance called tartar. Both tartar and plaque contain acids which, over time, can dissolve away the protective,hard enamel coating of the tooth and create holes or cavities. Most cavities form over a period of months, or even years.

The cavities can grow very large and damage the much softer internal structures of the tooth such as the dentine and the pulp, which is found at the core. If they remain untreated, they can kill the nerve and blood vessels of the tooth and ultimately the tooth itself.

But you can help to protect your teeth from decay by regularly brushing with Elgydium Decay Protection Toothpaste. It contains a unique, second generation fluoride called Fluorinol® that actually remineralises and reinforces your tooth enamel. And it has a special agent
called siliglycol that keeps more fluoride on your teeth, even after rinsing - to give you day-long protection against decay.
