Shine Remineralizing Tooth Whitening Powder 60g

How does Shine gently whiten?

Whitening teeth is risky business because most whitening products are actually bleaching agents which can cause a loss of minerals and weaken the teeth.

Researchers found that there's one ingredient - white kaolin clay - that is the most effective to whiten and clean the teeth without damaging enamel.

The good news is even staining on veneers or composite (white) fillings on front teeth can be polished whiter. These dental materials are at risk of being stained by common staining foods/drinks (coffee, tea, red wine, green smoothies, blueberries, etc).

How does Shine remineralise teeth?

Shine combines three remineralization strategies to create a unique product solution. The reason Shine works so well is because:

• the minerals are exactly the same as the minerals your teeth are made of (micro-crystalline hydroxyapatite or MCHA)
• the minerals are in a very bio-available form; the particle size is tiny in order to be incorporated into the tiny tubule structure of your teeth
• the formula uses a unique delivery method to bring the minerals exactly to where your teeth need support

So, one reason Shine works so well to reverse tooth decay is simply that it makes available tiny particles of the exact mineral structure your teeth are made of to rebuild and restore the minerals that have been lost.

What clinical studies say about the remineralization ability of MCHA

Shine uses a proprietary formula of natural ingredients which have extensive clinical data proving their effectiveness to repair damaged teeth and protect teeth from future damage (mineral loss).

In one study, researchers found that “enamel microhardness enhanced significantly after exposure” to the MCHA in Shine.

Another study went on to state that using MCHA “can greatly enhance remineralization and increase tooth microhardness”.

Researchers from another study even compared the remineralizing benefits to fluoride by stating, MCHA “caused remineralization comparable to a fluoride dentifrice [toothpaste], and inhibited caries[cavity] development, thus suggesting… an effective alternative to fluoride toothpaste.”

Ultimately, what all this means is the ingredients in Shine help restore strength and mineral density in areas of existing tooth decay and they help protect against future decay by inhibiting more mineral loss from your teeth.

Please note: Some people brush their pet's teeth with human toothpaste. Do not use Shine for this purpose as it contains Xylitol which is toxic to dogs and can be fatal.

The main ingredient that makes OraWellness Shine so effective and unique is microcrystalline hydroxyapatite, or MCHA for short.

“Microcrystalline” means that the particle size is really, really small, and that it’s in a crystal form.

Given that our teeth are living crystals, the crystalline form is perfect for our needs. The tiny size is necessary so the minerals can be used to rebuild tooth enamel.

The second half is “hydroxyapatite”. Unless you like to geek out on old dental journals, you might not know that this is the actual material our teeth are made of!

Non-GMO, birch-based Xylitol

Xylitol plays an important role in delivering the bioavailable minerals to the areas of decay. MCHA works well by itself, but xylitol amplifies the remineralizing benefit by helping to ensure that the MCHA is delivered where it’s needed most.

To maintain the highest quality product possible, Shine uses non-GMO xylitol sourced from birch trees and produced in North America.

Calcium Lactate

We complete the trifecta of remineralizing ingredients in OraWellness Shine with calcium lactate, which enhances the remineralization effects of xylitol.

These three ingredients work in synergy, resulting in a unique formula that facilitates remineralization like no other oral hygiene product.

• For general remineralizing support, simply apply Shine to a moistened toothbrush and brush as normal.
• To increase whitening benefit, focus on the front teeth when first starting to brush.
• For extra remineralizing support, swish Shine around your mouth for several minutes after brushing.
