Toothpaste And Toothpowder To Nourish The Mouth
Olgani Probiom, South Africa’s first toothpaste and tooth powder formulated with probiotics, has been launched in South Africa. The all-natural toothpaste and tooth powder contain live probiotics, prebiotics, and a carefully selected range of active, edible ingredients and are the latest innovation from Olgani Naturals, manufacturers of natural, premium oral care.
Probiotics are ‘good’ bacteria with well-known health benefits for the immune system and digestion. Research over the past decade has demonstrated their oral health benefits – helping prevent cavities, gum disease, fungal infections, and bad breath (aka halitosis). People with healthy teeth and gums have been shown to have a robust, balanced oral microbiota.
Prebiotics are insoluble fibres that feed probiotics. Olgani Probiom contains Olgani’s signature Prebio+ care blend of prebiotics to help maintain and nourish a healthy microbial balance. The mouth is the beginning of the digestive tract and is home to more than 700 bacteria, viruses, and fungi; it is the body’s second most abundant microbiome, after the gut.
When in balance, this ecosystem works in harmony. An imbalance can cause oral disease, including cavities and gum disease, and also spread to other parts of the body, contributing to chronic disease. The range was developed after months of research and testing. It is well-documented that your microbiota influences the entire body’s functioning.
Microorganisms in your mouth are directly connected to your gut. It makes sense to try to balance and support oral microbiota in support of complete wellness. The ingredients in Probiom fortify and nourish the microbiota in the mouth and prebiotics and probiotics help to increase the number of friendly bacteria.
Herbal extracts and mineral clays support healthy gum tissue and provide vital minerals to support the remineralisation of enamel and to protect dentine. The nourishing ingredients in Olgani Probiom include detoxifying bentonite; nutrient-rich chlorella; French green clay; green tea; antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory lemongrass and refreshing peppermint.
It does not contain fluoride, sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) or other foaming agents, glycerine, sorbitol or sweeteners, titanium dioxide, or any artificial preservatives, taste enhancers, or additives. It is vegan and cruelty-free and the tooth powder comes in zero-waste packaging – a biodegradable box, glass jar, and aluminium lid – and, because its production requires less water and electricity, is an extremely environmentally-friendly oral care option.
The probiotics in Olgani Probiom will help repopulate the mouth with healthy bacteria which can reduce bad breath, cavities, and periodontal disease. It is free from controversial ingredients like sodium lauryl sulphate, fluoride, and triclosan. Olgani Probiom has a wide range of oral health benefits and leaves the mouth feeling fresh and clean.
