Oral Disease: The World’s #1 Health Issue You Didn’t Expect

It might come as a surprise, but the world’s leading health problem isn’t what you’d expect – it’s oral disease (primarily cavities and gum disease), affecting nearly half the planet! Despite a $33.7 billion oral care market, 90% of people worldwide face dental troubles. So, why are our smiles still struggling in a world brimming with oral care products?

The Whole Mouth Matters, Not Just the Teeth
With aisles filled with products boasting whiter teeth and fresher breath, you’d think our oral health would be top-notch. However, many products focus on superficial benefits, overlooking the holistic health of the mouth, the very gateway to our bodies.

Good Bacteria: The Unsung Heroes of Oral Health
Contrary to popular belief, not all bacteria in our mouths are harmful. In fact, a healthy oral microbiome requires a balance of beneficial bacteria to keep the harmful ones under control. However, it’s important to be aware that many oral care products containing antibacterial ingredients (including potent essential oils), or alcohol might disrupt this crucial balance. By potentially affecting both harmful and beneficial bacteria, these products could inadvertently create conditions that favor the growth of cavity-causing bacteria.

Fluoride and Friends: A Complicated Relationship
Is fluoride the ultimate toothpaste hero? Not quite, if its sidekicks are misbehaving. When paired with certain calcium compounds (any calcium other than hydroxyapatite), fluoride might lose its effectiveness, leaving us with toothpaste that’s all bark and no bite.

Kids and Brushing: More Than Just a Colorful Tube
Getting kids to love brushing is like convincing them veggies are candy. Traditional methods, like cartoon characters on tubes, are just short-term fixes. SuperMouth® takes it up a notch with music, storytelling, augmented reality, and even a movie, making oral care as exciting as a superhero adventure.
