Salutem Special Toothpastes

Available at Finnish pharmacies, online pharmacies and specialist oral hygiene shops

Salutem Special Toothpastes is a Finnish product series developed especially for oral sensitivity and dry mouth problems. Ideal for all age groups from infants to the elderly and intended for daily use by the whole family.

Salutem toothpaste has been developed especially for persons with oral sensitivity for optimal care of dentition. Dry mouth, various allergies, asthma and aphthae (cankers) of the oral mucosa may cause pain and hyperesthesia of the mucous membranes. In such cases, normal strongly flavoured toothpastes containing preservatives and foaming substances may be difficult or even impossible to use.

Salutem special toothpaste with 1,450 ppm fluoride was “Kuluttaja” magazine’s test winner with a full five plus marks in a test which included all toothpastes on the market in Finland.

Salutem toothpaste does not need to be rinsed after brushing, nor does it cause a burning sensation in the mucous membranes when brushing teeth. Wine tasters and persons employed in the restaurant business may also benefit by Salutem Toothpaste; it does not affect the palate the way other toothpastes do.

Salutem does not contain: 

  • Flavourings (essential oils), which irritate not only people who are allergic to these substances, but many others who have dry mouth with a burning sensation, mucous membrane changes or  otherwise sensitive oral mucosa.

  • Sodium lauryl sulphate, i.e. a foaming cleaning substance, which may irritate the mucous membranes of people with normal salivation as well. It has been demonstrated that there is a connection between recurring painful aphthae and sodium lauryl sulphate found in toothpaste.

  • 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (a preservative), to which many people are allergic or hypersensitive.

  • Colourant (titanium dioxide).

Salutem contains:

  • Fluoride 1,450 ppm (NaF). In toothpaste for kids: 1,000 ppm (NaF), also available: a fluoride-free alternative

  • Xylitol 9.9%, which improves the protective effect of saliva.

  • Betaine 4%, a Finnish natural product.

  • In a study on xerostomia patients conducted at the University of Turku Institute of Dentistry, it was used as a moisturizing ingredient in toothpaste with good results.

“EVERYTHING YOU NEED WITH NOTHING UNNECESSARY”

Salutem Special Toothpaste for Kids

A gentle non foaming toothpaste developed especially for children. Age recommendation: 1.5 – 6 or 7 years.

Using non-foaming Salutem toothpaste for kids enables sufficiently long and thorough brushing. The cleansing agent contained in ordinary toothpastes causes heavy foaming by the mouthful when brushing teeth, which often leads one to stop brushing too soon because of having to spit out the foam. Swallowing the toothpaste is not harmful.

Getting used to brushing one’s teeth early on should begin immediately with the eruption of the front teeth, with a plain toothbrush and a small amount of fluoride-free Salutem toothpaste. The use of Salutem toothpaste for kids begins around the age of 1.5 years after the primary molars have erupted. In this way, the foundation for good oral hygiene is laid from the very childhood.

Especially good for persons with oral sensitivity

Kids’ toothpaste may also be used by young people and adults of all ages, if their fluoride intake is otherwise sufficient.

Ingredients:
Aqua, Crystalline Sorbitol, Hydrated Silica, Crystalline Xylitol 9,9 %, PEG, Anhydrous Natural Betaine 4,0%, Cellulose Gum, Sodium Fluoride (1000 ppm F), Sorbate

Like Salutem fluoride toothpaste, SALUTEM FLUORIDE-FREE special toothpaste contains everything necessary, except fluoride.

Ingredients:
Aqua, Crystalline Sorbitol, Hydrated Silica, Crystalline Xylitol 9,9 %, PEG, Anhydrous Natural Betaine 4,0%, Cellulose Gum, Sorbate
