How can Probiotics transform my oral health for my teeth, gums, and breath?

Dental probiotics are a specific strain of microbe selected for their proven dental care benefits. Whilst probiotics are commonly known for their positive effects on digestive health, recent studies have shown that they can also significantly benefit oral health. These beneficial bacteria can help maintain a healthy balance of microbes in your mouth, that cause dental issues such as cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. By promoting a healthier oral microbiome, probiotics can improve your overall oral hygiene and contribute to better teeth, gums, and breath.

Can I incorporate Luv Biotics into my daily routine for better dental health?

Yes, absolutely! The British Dental Association recommends brushing your teeth twice daily. To maximise the effect of your Luv Biotics® dental products, we recommend following with a capful of Luv Biotics® mouthwash and using Luv Biotics® lozenges whenever convenient for you, especially when brushing is not immediately possible.

Is Luv Biotics® family-friendly for my loved ones and I?

Yes, Luv Biotics® dental care range is designed to be family-friendly and is suitable for both adults and children aged 12 and older.

Are probiotics safe if they are swallowed?

Yes, probiotics are safe and not harmful if swallowed.  We recommend spitting out the toothpaste and mouthwash after rinsing. Luv Biotics® lozenges are designed to be swallowed.

Do your products contain Gluten?

You will be delighted to know that our products do not contain Gluten!  We are also SLS, Paraben, alcohol, and cruelty free.  We also do not use artificial colours or preservatives.  To go a step further we also have a Fluoride free range in our ambition to keep our products as natural as we can.

What is Advanced Bionet Technology?

We have collaborated with world-leading scientists and dentists to develop our breakthrough Advanced Bionet Technology. This innovative approach to oral care blends specific probiotics and xylitol with selected natural ingredients to deliver superior dental hygiene. Unlike most regular oral care products, which indiscriminately destroy both good and bad bacteria, Bionet promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria to crowd out the bad. This makes it a gentler and more effective way to balance your oral microbiome.

Why does Luv Biotics® contain sodium fluoride?

Luv Biotics® offers both fluoride and fluoride-free versions of our products. The British Dental Association recommends using fluoride in toothpaste for optimal dental health. However, we understand that some individuals prefer fluoride-free options, so we have developed a fluoride-free version to cater for those preferences.

What is the best way to store my Luv Biotics products?

Lozenges:

Store in a cool, dry place, protected from light and heat. The natural ingredients may vary slightly in appearance or colour and may crystallise. This will not affect the quality of the product.

Toothpaste:

Store between 5°C and 25°C.

Mouthwash:

Store between 5°C and 25°C. The natural ingredients may cause variations in colour and appearance. Cetylpyridinium Chloride (CPC) in Luv Biotics® mouthwash can change colour when sealed, which does not affect the quality of the product. CPC provides numerous oral care benefits, making it an essential component of our mouthwash.

Is Luv Biotics® a medical product?

Luv Biotics® is not a medical product and cannot be obtained on prescription. However, your healthcare or dental professional may recommend using probiotic oral care products like Luv Biotics® for their benefits.

Do Luv Biotics® products contain SLS, parabens, or alcohol?

Luv Biotics® products do not contain SLS, like many other toothpastes. Instead, we use a specially selected natural foaming agent derived from coconut (Cocamidopropyl Betaine).

Additionally, Luv Biotics® products do not contain parabens or alcohol, as we strive to keep our ingredients as natural as possible for you.  We are also gluten free, cruelty free, and free from artificial colours and preservatives.  What is not to Luv?

Does Luv Biotics toothpaste foam like other toothpastes?

Most everyday toothpastes contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), which creates foam when you brush. SLS is inexpensive and makes it easier for manufacturers to formulate toothpaste. However, SLS can irritate the teeth and gums for some people, and we have therefore substituted SLS for a natural foaming agent derived from coconut oil (Cocamidopropyl Betaine), which produces less foam but is gentler on your mouth and gums.

Is Luv Biotics safe to use in pregnancy and whilst breast feeding?

Luv Biotics products are safe to use during pregnancy and when
breast feeding. In fact, we believe our products are more suitable during pregnancy because we do not use any harsh chemicals. If you are concerned, you should aways consult with your doctor.

Does Luv Biotics help oral thrush?

Oral thrush is primarily caused by fungal infections. Our Luv Biotics dental range includes two specific strains of probiotics that have proven effective in fighting these infections. Many customers have shared positive feedback, reporting relief from oral thrush after using our products. For the best results, we recommend using all our products, especially Luv Biotics lozenges.

What colour is Luv Biotics mouthwash?

Luv Biotics has a slight brownish tint due to the Cetylpryridinium Chloride (CPC) in our mouthwash. CPC is effective in controlling plaque removal. This ingredient can change colour when not exposed to the air for some time.  You will notice this will become clearer after a few days when the seal is broken and exposed to air. You can use the product and the benefits will be the same.
