Science shows that Hydroxyapatite helps ease tooth sensitivity by filling in microscopic pathways to the nerves in the teeth. With fewer pathways exposed, the less sensitivity and discomfort you should feel to touch, food and temperature.

Peg Paste does not contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate or SLS, a common ingredient that acts as a thickener in toothpaste products. SLS can have negative, degenerative effects that can contribute to, or worsen serious oral health issues such as dry mouth, mouth ulcers, mouth irritation and bad breath. Changing to an SLS free toothpaste can make a difference if you’re experiencing these symptoms.

Prebiotics are generally tougher and more powerful than probiotics. Probiotics are beneficial live bacteria but can die off quickly once they come into contact with human enzymes. Prebiotics on the other hand are nondigestible by human enzymes, and function as food for the beneficial good probiotic bacteria already living in the oral microbiome.
