FURDENTYL™ FURDENTYL™ is a Calcium glycerophosphate(CaGP) (US GRAS approved) It has a cariostatic action and a role as a nutritional supplement It can be used alone for its intrinsic anticaries activity or combined with NaMFP for its enhancing effect on the anticaries activity of fluorine FURDENTYL™ can be used: • Locally:Toothpaste, mouthwash, chewing gum, before & after brushing solutions • Orally: Tablets
FURDENTYL™ Biological interests of the Glycerophosphate anion: • An organic anion • A mineral element vector • Has a special biological role in the body’s essential metabolic reactions Because of its combination with calcium, an appraisal of the anion’s intrinsic biological properties can be made. • Cariostatic activity • Role in the membrane cell and vital organs (especially the brain) tissues constitution Hence FURDENTYL role as a nutrient besides its anticaries action.
FURDENTYL™ Being a nutrient & a cariostatic agent renders FURDENTYL particularly interesting in the case of individuals whose intellect and physique are still developing, such as teenagers and children. Dental caries is an infection, usually bacterial in origin, that causes demineralization of the hard tissues (enamel, dentin and cementum) and destruction of the organic matter of the tooth, usually by production of acid by hydrolysis of the food debris accumulated on the tooth surface FURDENTYL action mode: • Acts as a buffer power against the saliva’s pH • Helps mineralizing the tooth (Ca & P supplement) • Improves the fluorine fixation • Improves NaMFP’s role
FURDENTYL™ Tests Subjects: 923 children (11-12 years old) Design: Double blind study Toothpaste: • Control group: Calcium carbonate • Active control group: calcium carbonate + 0,76% NaMFP + 0,13 % CaGP • The fluorine concentration in each toothpaste is 1 ppm Duration: 4 years Results: • Clinical examination of the teeth (optic fibre) • X-rays of molar & premolar teeth • Examination once a year • Results at the end of the 4 years
Clinicalexamination FURDENTYL™ • Group treated with CaGP/NaMFP combination has a greater cariostatic activity • An improvement in the NaMFP performance is observed when used with CaGP DFS: Decayed & Filled Surfaces X-ray examination
FURDENTYL™ • A decrease in the enamel dissolution is observed when NaMFP is combined with CaGP • The fluorine hydroxyapatite content is greater in the group treated by the combination • Optimal ratio : CaGP/NaMFP = 10:1
FURDENTYL™ Physical appearance: • A white amorphous or crystalline powder, odorless & tasteless • A white powder, acidified by 15% citric acid content, with a slightly acid taste & alcoholic smell • A clear slightly syrupy liquid , with a light acid taste and an alcoholic smell (a 50% calcium glycerophosphate liquid) Quality-Pharmacopoeia: • FURDENTYL powder: BPC 1963, FCC III, JP 8, NF X,PF X • FURDENTYL acidified powder: with a 15% citric acid content: pharmaceutical grade • FURDENTYL 50% aqueous solution: Neutral calcium glycerophosphate+ acidified calcium glycerophosphate + free glycerophosphoric acid: pharmaceutical grade
FURDENTYL ZnC FURDENTYL ZnC(Zinc citrate) isconsidered a safe and appropriateingredient for tartar control and antigingivitis oral care products and has a history of use as a dietarysupplement Tartarforms in the mouthwhen plaque mineralizes on yourteeth. The resulting hard deposits (calcified plaque or tartar) canonlyberemoved by a dentist or hygienist. Zinc citrate helpspreventtartarbuildup by preventing plaque fromhardening (calcifying). Gingivitisis a disease of the gumsthatoccurswhenbacteriaaccumulate on teeth, producingtoxins and irritants that lead to red, puffygums. If leftuntreated, gingivitiscanresult in toothloss and otherhealthproblems. Zinc citrate helpspreventgingivitis by inhibitingbacterial accumulation on teeth and gums.
Dentinalhypersensitivity • Dentine hypersensitivityis sensation felt when the nerves inside the dentin of the teeth are exposed to the environment. • The sensation can range from irritation all the way to intense, shooting pain. This sensitivity can be caused by several factors, including wear, decaying teeth or exposed tooth roots. • Dentine contains many thousands of microscopic tubular structures that radiate outwards from the pulp; these dentinal tubules are typically 0.5-2 micrometres in diameter. • Changes in the flow of the plasma-like biological fluid present in the dentinal tubules can trigger mechanoreceptors present on nerves located at the pulpal aspect thereby eliciting a pain response. • This hydrodynamic flow can be increased by cold, air pressure, drying, sugar, sour (dehydrating chemicals), or forces acting onto the tooth. • Hot or cold food or drinks, and physical pressure are typical triggers in those individuals with teeth sensitivity.
Dentinalhypersensitivity The most cheap & efficient first line of treatment is a toothpaste containing a desensitizing active ingredient such as: • Potassium Nitrate • Strontium Chloride • Strontium Acetate
Potassium Nitrate “The most widely used active ingredient in desensitizing toothpaste” Potassium ions work by blocking the synapse between nerve cells, reducing nerve excitation, and the associated pain. Potassium Nitrate is also reported to obliterate the tubules, reducing the fluid flow in them, ultimately reducing dentin hypersensitivity.
FURDENTYL SrA & SrC FURDENTYL SrC (Strontium Chloride) forms a barrier over microscopic tubules in the dentin containing nerve endings that have been exposed by gum recession. FURDENTYL SrA (Strontium Acetate) works by providing a physical plug within the microscopic channels which helps to prevent the response to triggers which can cause the short, sharp pain of sensitive teeth.
