What is Dry Mouth?

Dry Mouth is a condition where your mouth feels uncomfortably dry. It can happen when your body doesn't produce enough saliva to keep your mouth moist. Symptoms vary from person to person and can range from being mild to severe. Common symptoms may include dryness in your mouth, a sticky feeling in the mouth, bad breath, feeling thirsty, difficulty swallowing or eating dry foods. Dry Mouth can be uncomfortable, and left untreated it can have consequences on your oral health. It may result in a greater risk of cavities and mouth infections.*

*Biotène not indicated for these conditions.

What Causes Dry Mouth?

There are a number of causes and conditions that can affect the production of saliva and result in Dry Mouth.

Taking medications is the #1 cause of Dry Mouth. In fact, taking multiple medications may increase your risk of dry mouth by 40%. More than 500 different medications can cause dry mouth, including:

• Anti-depressants
• Blood pressure medications
• Antihistamines
• Decongestants

• [LONG-TERM PREVENTION AND MAINTENANCE]: Do you ever wonder why some of us continue to get cavities despite meticulous oral hygiene, whereas others who rarely brush and floss do not? The risk of cavities varies from person to person and is based on dietary habits, hygiene (brushing and flossing), saliva flow, as well as other factors.
• [PROTECT YOUR ENAMEL]: The CariFree CTx3 Rinse contains 0.05% sodium fluoride, which helps prevent tooth decay and white spots. Evidence shows that fluoride strengthens your teeth and aids in the prevention of dental cavities.

Break the cycle of decay with CariFree. CariFree's pH elevated products. Safe to use every day, our non-abrasive products are highly effective and scientifically proven to prevent cavities through remineralization.

How To

We recommend using the CTx3 Rinse along with the CTx4 Gel 1100. For best results rinse first, brush second and wait 30 minutes before eating or drinking.



Rinse First:

• Use twice daily
• Swish for 60 seconds with 10 mL

Brush Second:

• CTx4 Gel 1100 replaces your current toothpaste
• Brush twice daily with a pea-sized amount

Protective Ingredients:

Elevated pH - Maintaining an elevated or neutral pH balance helps keep your tooth enamel and smile healthy.

Xylitol - The xylitol in the CTx3 Rinse is a naturally occurring, sweet-tasting ingredient found in many types of plants. Research shows that regular use of xylitol-rich products may reduce your risk of dental cavities.

Fluoride - Fluoride strengthens the teeth while also making them less susceptible to demineralization.

CTx3 Rinse is one of CariFree's most popular products due to the great taste and fresh feeling. This scientifically proven formula contains cavity-fighting fluoride, xylitol, and an elevated pH. CTx3 Rinse is non-staining, alcohol-free, and is recommended by dentists for use twice daily and for ages 6+. For best results, we suggest pairing the CTx3 Rinse and the CTx4 Gel 1100 - rinsing first and brushing second so that the nanohydroxyapatite in the CTx4 Gel 1100 remains on the teeth for additional protection.

What Makes Us Different?

Do you ever wonder why some people continue to get cavities despite meticulous oral hygiene, whereas others who rarely brush and floss do not? Can a person really be cavity-prone?

An imbalance in your mouth causes cavities, and when dentists drill and fill cavities, they are only treating the result, not the imbalance itself—and the decay returns. For many, it’s a frustrating, reactive approach to oral health, but not surprising. Until recently, dentists were taught that you'd be free of decay if you have good oral hygiene. The problem is that it’s just not that simple.

Break the cycle of decay with CariFree. CariFree's pH elevated products fix the problem at its source. Safe to use every day, our non-abrasive products are highly effective and scientifically proven to prevent cavities.

Oral Care Doesn't Have to Hurt to Work

The mouth is one of the most sensitive areas of the body. That's why CloSYS oral care products are uniquely formulated to be distinctively effective and uncommonly gentle without the burn or irritation you've come to expect from other oral care.

(Oral Health in America: A Report of the Surgeon General July 2000)

Product description

Some companies don’t seem to understand that the mouth is sensitive. That's why dental professionals recommend CloSYS with Clorastan a naturally activated antimicrobial that kills harmful bacteria, leaving the good bacteria you need for exceptional oral health, without irritating the most sensitive mouths. CloSYS Ultra-Sensitive is a highly effective oral rinse that's as gentle as using water and the only mouthwash to come unflavored, with optional flavoring. Add a little, a lot, or none at all, you're in control.

From the Manufacturer

With its strong performance against the oral bacteria that causes infections of the peridontium and endodontium, as well as dental caries and staph infections, and its favorable behavior toward healing cells (fibroblasts), Cloys addresses a spectrum of clinical oral hygiene concerns. Finally, its agreeable taste and non-tooth-staining characteristics encourage patients to be fully compliant. As a non-prescription oral rinse, Cloys not only meets and may surpass CHX in post-procedure applications, it also can be recommended for twice-daily regular oral care as a maintenance and preventative measure. Cloys is now a premium standard for daily oral care.

• Contains 2 - 32 Fl oz bottle of CloSYS Ultra Sensitive Mouthwash with Flavor Control Dropper (peppermint oil derived) - add a little or a lot, you're in control!
• Contains optional mint flavor dropper-use a little, a lot, or not at all
• Advanced oral care benefits without burning
• Made for sensitive mouths: no alcohol to 'burn' your mouth, works gently and effectively

User questions & answers

Question:	how can i cancel closys that is to be delivered every 2 mo
Answer:	If after you rinse out your mouth the taste is not bad and I think best not to re-rense with water.. I sometimes "work up some spit" and spit of course,, seems to take out some of the taste.. but like I said just not a bad taste..
Question:	Is this product fluoride free
Answer:	Yes you can use it in a small spray bottle. However Biotene has a spray that they sell that I have used in the past that is good as well.
Question:	Why is there a one time purchase option for the Closys 2 pack but when I click on it it won't work
Answer:	A 2016 research study at University of Florida found Biotene Moisturizing Mouth Spray, Oasis, & Thayer's to be damaging to enamel. It may also weaken the cement & composit on veneers, crowns & bonding. Biotene Oral Balance, however is safe. Overall the most damage in the study was from citric acid found in reg & diet soft drinks. Ask your dentist if they can recommend gum or lozenges containing Xylitol, a naturally occurring sugar alcohol that neutralizes bacteria acids. Always keep xylitor away from pets.
Question:	What is the difference between the original formula, sensitve & ultra sensitive formulas? Do they all have the same ingredients / effectiveness
Answer:	DO NOT RECOMMEND BIOTENE in any flavor: All are cheap, ineffective rinses ineffective for treating 'dry mouth.' If you're looking for the' BIOTENE Original Flavor,' buy SALIVEA Dry Mouth Care by Laclede, Inc (also available on Amazon.com). who made the BIOTENE Original Flavor prior to selling the company to GSK in 2008. A few years later GSK chose to go to a useless product by eliminating BIOTENE Original Flavor to save a few cents by eliminating the 'salivary enzymes.' Apparently, held to a 10-year no-compete agreement, Laclede reentered the market in the last year or so and now makes SALIVEA Dry Mouth Care with salivary enzymes, exactly the same product as the discontinued BIOTENE Original Flavor.

Why Rinse – The Benefits of Mouthwash

Listerine is the next step to ensuring a healthier mouth. Focusing on good oral care habits, and sticking to them, includes regular visits to your dentist, and a daily regimen of brushing, flossing, and rinsing with Listerine. The truth is that brushing reaches 25% of your mouth. Listerine cleans virtually 100%.*

The power of the swish fights bad breath bacteria in your whole mouth, including on your teeth, tongue, and gums. Listerine mouthwash should be used twice a day to reach its deep-clean effectiveness. After all, bad breath germs are in your mouth all day, every day, and rinsing twice a day provides 24-hour gum protection. For Listerine rinse to reach its full powerful potential, use as directed and rinse vigorously for 60 seconds twice daily.

* Listerine data on file (2010).

6 in 1 Benefits

Listerine Total Care Anticavity Mouthwash is a complete mouthwash.* Every member of the family has their very own oral care needs. With six benefits, Listerine Total Care is a simple solution to keep them all taken care of.** Listerine Total Care delivers six benefits to clean your whole mouth, kill bad breath germs, prevent cavities, restore enamel, freshen breath, and strengthen teeth. Listerine Total Care gives your mouth a clean, fresh feeling and taste.

*Among OTC fluoride rinses.

**Adults and children 12 years of age and older.

How to Swish

What happens each time you swish properly? Research shows that antimicrobial Listerine mouthwash kills oral bacteria within 60 seconds for a difference you will notice with continued use. In fact, the bad breath bacteria in saliva samples were killed within 60 seconds of coming into contact with Listerine rinse. Don’t give germs a fighting chance. Swish the full 60 seconds to make sure you’re getting a truly clean mouth.

Cavities: Prevent, Prevent, Prevent.

A cavity is a hole in a tooth that develops as a result of tooth decay over time. Tooth decay is a result of bacterial buildup on the tooth surface. The bacteria use sugars from foods or drinks to produce acid, which over time and left untreated, breaks down the surface of the tooth and creates a cavity. A cavity is permanent damage to the tooth and requires professional treatment to repair it with a filling.

The good news is that cavities are preventable. The best way to prevent a cavity is to maintain a healthy oral care routine, including brushing twice a day, flossing once a day, and rinsing twice a day. Good oral care habits keep your mouth clean and healthy; remove plaque, maintain a healthy diet, and see your dentist at least once every six months.

Product description

It is estimated by the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta that nearly 50% of the population of the United States lives with gum disease in some form. Whether you’re noticing sensitive teeth, bleeding gums, or have been diagnosed with gingivitis, TheraBreath Healthy Gums Oral Rinse is an effective solution. Healthy Gums Oral Rinse is a safe and effective treatment to fight bacteria and common symptoms of gum disease, which can also be related to diabetes. Dr. Katz’s Healthy Gums Oral Rinse is periodontist-formulated to help people living with gum disease. TheraBreath Healthy Gums Oral Rinse contains cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), an ingredient approved by the FDA and clinically proven to kill germs linked to gum disease and other periodontal problems, and adds a sweetener, xylitol (but NO saccharin), to neutralize the decay process. CPC attacks the bacteria that lead to gingivitis, which is early stage gum disease that produces red, swollen, and even bleeding gums. It also helps to fight periodontitis, a later stage gum disease. Periodontitis can cause gums to pull away from the teeth, bone loss, and potentially even tooth loss. This 24-hour oral rinse is packed with Dr. Katz’s patented oxygenating compounds and added zinc compounds to fight bad breath germs with no mixing needed. This product is alcohol-free, which reduces irritation and the occurrence of inflamed and sensitive gums, it contains no artificial colors or flavors, and it is certified vegan, kosher, and gluten-free. TheraBreath Healthy Gums 24-hour Oral Rinse formula is also exceptional for treating gum-related problems associated with menopause, pregnancy, and other medical conditions. The non-acidic formula of Healthy Gums Oral Rinse has a gentle Clean Mint flavor without added saccharin. This product is sold as a pack of two 16-ounce bottles. As with all our products, TheraBreath Healthy Gums Oral Rinse is guaranteed to work to your satisfaction or your money back!
