When we think about our oral health and how to maintain it, we generally default to thinking about our teeth. However, there is another part
of the mouth that is equally important to our oral and total body health; the gums. That's where PerioMix comes into play...
Bicarb soda is a natural antibacterial agent. It reduces the growth and proliferation of
destructive oral bacteria and parasites that are responsible for gum infections like periodontal disease. Bicarb soda is also alkaline
(having a high pH), and works to create an environment in which bad bacteria struggles to grow. It neutralises plaque acids
which protects the enamel and can even aid in the re-mineralisation of enamel.
Pure Salt
Like bicarb soda, salt has antibacterial and antiseptic
properties - killing bad bacteria and parasites, and ultimately allowing gum tissue to heal. Salt is also a
tightening agent - pulling fluid out of inflamed gums so that they can tighten around the base of the tooth -
ultimately ensuring the gum gutters are smaller and more easily cleaned, and preventing the loss of teeth.
Gum disease affects 50% of the adult population, yet traditional toothpastes and other oral healthcare products do
little towards restoring and maintaining the health of our gums.
Sodium Ascorbate
Sodium ascorbate - otherwise known as Vitamin C - is essential for the
production of collagen, which helps to build gum tissue. Vitamin C can be directly absorbed into the
gums
which speeds up healing and repair..
Peppermint Oil
Natural peppermint oil is used to freshen the breath and provide PerioMix with a
natural, non-synthetic flavouring. Unlike other toothpaste and oral care products, PerioMix does not contain any artificial
sweeteners
or fluoride. .
How to Use PerioMix - It's Easy!
Step 1
Place 1 - 2 teaspoons of PerioMix powder in the palm of your hand.
Step 2
With a moist finger (you can lick it to make it moist), dip it into PerioMix.
Step 3
Pack the PerioMix powder generously around the gum lines and in between all the teeth. Always start on your upper teeth to prevent excess
saliva pooling.
Step 4
Spit out the excess, but leave the residue in your mouth for as long as possible. Try to avoid eating or drinking for 60 minutes after
completing this procedure.

Gum Disease: What to Do After Treatment
Thinking about oral hygiene, most of us focus on cleaning our teeth twice a day - once in the morning and again in the evening. We also
probably think about going for regular checkups at the dentist. Both of these are certainly a step in the right direction; however, oral
health is much more than brushing the teeth and visiting the dentist...
