Bam&Boo’s Natural Toothpaste has a Total Action effect as it will not only help prevent caries and plaque but it will actually leave your mouth feeling clean and with an amazing fresh minty breath. Toothpaste containing Bamboo salt is proposed to reduce plaque and gingivitis, whiten teeth, decrease demineralization, decrease tooth hypersensitivity, and strengthen tooth enamel [ 23, 24]. The antimicrobial efficacy of Bamboo salt on Streptococcus mutans has recently been observed in an in-vitro study [ 21]; however, its in-vivo efficacy against cariogenic microorganisms remains unknown.Approval Seal: Your toothpaste should have the seal of approval to mark the safety by any dental association. The approved seals are guaranteed and effective. Ingredients: There are some ingredients good for your oral health while some are not.

The present double-blinded parallel randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted on 60 dental students (age range: 18–30). Following the baseline saliva sampling, the participants were randomly assigned into the case and control groups, to use the Bamboo salt herbal toothpaste and conventional non-herbal toothpaste, respectively. They were instructed to brush their teeth twice a day using the Bass technique. Saliva sampling was repeated after four weeks. The salivary counts of Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus at baseline and 4-week follow-up were determined and presented as the logarithm of colony-forming units per milliliter (log CFU/mL).

Co-application of brushing with toothpaste containing certain chemical agents helps remove pathogenic biofilm and reduces bacterial repopulation on the enamel. Toothbrushing is associated with a decrease in oral bacterial levels and maintenance of a healthy balance of oral flora on tooth surfaces [ 10]. Typically, conventional toothpaste types contain triclosan and fluoride as main antibacterial ingredients. It has been proven that these ingredients have anti-cariogenic properties [ 11]. In recent years, there has been an increased interest in therapeutic herbal ingredients worldwide, due to reduced side effects and better availability, leading to the popularity of herbal toothpastes. With the increasing availability of herbal toothpaste brands on the market, the efficacy of these products on oral bacteria has been studied extensively in recent years [ 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18].

Due to the comparable efficacy of the investigated herbal toothpaste with conventional toothpaste, it potentially qualifies as a complementary agent for self-care oral hygiene procedures. Another therapeutic property of Bamboo salt as toothpaste ingredient is its inhibitory effect on cytokines involved in gingival inflammation. In a molecular study on gingival fibroblasts, a reduction in IL-1β, IL-8, TNF-α was observed following the application of Bamboo salt and sodium fluoride, thereby enhancing gingival resistance to inflammation [ 33]. The anti-gingivitis effect of Bamboo salt was further confirmed in a randomized controlled clinical trial comparing a Bamboo salt toothpaste with another herbal toothpaste containing Centella Asiatica [ 34]. As we’ve explored in this blog post, bamboo salt toothpaste offers a unique and natural alternative to conventional toothpaste options. With its impressive array of oral health benefits, such as antibacterial properties, plaque reduction, anti-inflammatory effects, acid neutralization, and enamel strengthening, it’s no wonder that this ancient Korean secret is gaining popularity in the world of oral care.

I've been a dentist for 16 years and this is the only brand of fluoride-free toothpaste alternative that I recommend to my patients. I've been using this toothpaste myself as someone who has fluorosis since it first came out and I've been so impressed with everything about it. Having personally experienced the appearance of the long lasting effects of demineralized, brown, chalky looking spots on my teeth from braces and having fluorosis, I can say that this toothpaste definitely delivers improved visible results.Nakano K, Nomura R, Matsumoto M, Ooshima T.
