What should be a simple daily habit can be a painful challenge for many – leaving people unsure how to maintain good oral care.
For most people, brushing your teeth is a daily routine you don’t think twice about. But for millions of people in the UK, especially those living with dry mouth (xerostomia) and conditions such as Sjögren’s Syndrome, this simple habit can cause discomfort and irritation.
If you've ever felt a burning sensation after brushing, or found mint-flavoured products overwhelming, you're not alone. And now, there's a new option that can help - new Oralieve Flavour-Free Toothpaste.
Why dry mouth changes everything
Dry mouth is more than just feeling thirsty. It can be caused by medical treatments (like radiotherapy or certain medications), neurological conditions, autoimmune diseases like Sjögren’s syndrome, or even stress and anxiety.
When your mouth doesn’t produce enough saliva, it loses one of its most important natural defences. That can lead to:
- Tooth decay and gum disease
- Difficulty speaking or swallowing
- A burning or tingling sensation
- Altered taste and an increased sensitivity to flavour, especially mint or strong ingredients
Why mint toothpaste can make it worse
Mint might feel ‘fresh’ for some but for people with dry or damaged oral tissue, it can be anything but. That cool tingling sensation can often be a sign of irritation and not refreshment.
For many, the foaming agents (like SLS) found in traditional toothpastes make things even worse. They strip the mouth of moisture and increase the discomfort, due to their harsh foaming action and the way they aggravate already sensitive tissues.
The gentle alternative: Oralieve Flavour-Free Toothpaste
New Oralieve Flavour-Free Toothpaste was developed specifically for people who experience irritation from regular toothpaste and also find flavours overwhelming.
What makes it different?
- No added flavours
