BIO PASTE Ingredients
All ingredients are naturally-derived. BIO PASTE does not contain abrasives, surfactants, mineral oil-derived substances, Old Specified Labeled Ingredients and fluoride.| Ingredient Name | Function | Information |
|---|---|---|
| Water | Solvent | Ion-exchange processed purified water in use. |
| Glycerin | Humectant | Derived from rapeseed. One of the ingredients that compose the base of toothpaste. Effective in retaining moisture in the mouth. |
| Cellulose Gum | Thickening Agent | Derived from plant fiber (pulp). Employed as a thickening agent in food, cosmetic and medical products. |
| Mineral Salt | Flavoring Agent | Natural mineral salt extracted from Utah’s salt lakes. |
| Xylitol | Sweetening Agent | A sweetening agent that prevents cavities. Stops decay-causing plaque from forming and boosts the re-calcification of the teeth by stimulating the secretion of saliva. Also has the ability to weaken the activity of the streptococcus mutans bacteria. |
| Hydrated Silica | Cleaning Agent | The porous structure of silica gives it the ability to absorb stains and odors on a molecular level. The micronized form of silica is used so teeth is coated and gently cleaned without damaging the enamel. |
| Menthol | Refreshing Agent | Combined in toothpaste to provide freshness and to prevent bad breath. Extracted from the peppermint plant, it is used widely in the fields of food, medical and cosmetic products. |
| Sea Salt | Flavoring Agent | Sea Salt is rich in minerals and its effects keep the gums firm and stimulate blood circulation. |
| Stevia Leaf/Stem Extract | Flavoring Agent | From the stevia plant. Helps to adjust the flavor as well as restrict oral bacteria. |
| Grapefruit Seed Extract | Flavoring Agent | A natural preservative also used in food products and household cleaning materials. An extract from grapefruit seeds. |
| Glycyrrhizin Acid 2K | Flavoring Agent | Extracted from the licorice plant and used widely in traditional Chinese medicine and cosmetics products. Recognized to prevent periodontitis (pyorrhea), gingivitis and bad breath as an ingredient in quasi-drugs. |
| Sodium Bicarbonate | Cleaning Agent | Used as “baking soda” in food products. Aids in removing teeth stains when used in toothpaste. |
| Hinokitiol | Flavoring Agent | A natural anti-bacterial substance richly included in the essential oil extracted from the hinoki plant. Effective against the periodontitis pathogen and Candida bacteria in small amounts. Also used as a food additive. |
| Chlorophyllin Copper Complex | Coloring Agent | This is the green-colored substance found in the chlorophyll of plants. While it is mainly used as a coloring agent in food products, it also contains a deodorizing ability and is combined in toothpaste to prevent bad breath. |
| Peppermint Oil | Flavoring Agent | Derived from the peppermint plant. Peppermint oil is the essential oil made by the steam distillation of the aboveground portion of the peppermint plant which is then cooled to separate the crude menthol and further refined to adjust the menthol content. Menthol is made by the further refining of the crude menthol by recrystallization. |

The Increasing Need for Better Oral Health Care.
A study by dental experts regarding how oral bacteria majorly affect the overall health of the body has become a hot topic in the United States. The Society of Internal Medicine in Dentistry was founded based on the findings that many lifestyle diseases are caused by bacteria entering the body through veins in the oral cavity. The awareness that good oral care is essential to maintaining and preserving good comprehensive health is also rapidly growing in Japan.Safety In Your Daily Care
Even when not swallowed the mouth slowly absorbs substances into the body due to sublingual and transcutaneous absorption. The inside of the mouth which made up of mucous membranes, is an absorptive area, particularly the sublingual area, as demonstrated by nitroglycerin tablets, a sublingually-administered myocardial infarction medication. While many toothpastes contain petroleum-based surfactants and chemicals to increase cleansing abilities, a safety level equivalent to food products is imperative in a toothpaste used every day in oral care.Substances Contained in Many Toothpastes
Sodium lauryl sulfate (Petroleum-type Surfactant)
Many commercial types of toothpaste contain petroleum-type substances which are easily absorbed from the oral mucosa and then accumulate in the body. These are prohibited in food additives, yet used in toothpastes.Fluoride
There are reports that the cancerogenesis rate is higher in water-fluoridated areas than in non-water-fluoridated areas. Toothpastes that contain fluoride may lead to higher chances of cancer and is being identified as a serious problem.
BIO PASTE does not contain any abrasives, surfactants, mineral oil-derived substances, ethanol,Old Specified Labeled Ingredients and fluoride.
