Dentyl Active is the original two phase mouthwash. The two phases are oil and water based and when you 'Shake to Activate', the two layers combine to create a cationic reaction to attract bacteria and food particles.

This cationic reaction helps bind the ingredients to bacteria and food particles more than the typical mouthwash to really deep clean your mouth. You can then visibly see the food particles and bacteria in the sink, proof it's really working!

Dentyl Active was developed by dentists and the world's leading expert in bad breath, Professor Mel Rosenberg. Visit his site at www.smellwell.com

Dentyl Active was first sold in the UK in 1997. Check out our section on the History of Dentyl Active.

Two key ingredients in Dentyl Active are Cetylpyridinium Chloride (CPC), an antibacterial agent, and Sodium Fluoride which helps to support healthy teeth and gums.

Dentyl Active Complete Care works in six ways to complete your daily oral care regime. Recommended by dentists, it actively pulls bacteria from teeth to help fight plaque and helps maintain healthy gums. It provides long lasting fresh breath with Zabactyl® and Menthol and is available in two flavour variants, Icy Fresh Mint and Icy Fresh Cherry.

Dentyl Active Enamel Restore has double the fluoride of most every mouthwashes (452ppm). This helps repair and mineralise your teeth to protect them from acidic food and drink. The fluoride level is within professionally recommended quantities to avoid problems with fluorosis.

Dentyl Active is an alcohol-free water and oil based formula and is therefore kind to your teeth and gums. It does not contain chlorhexidine which is known to stain teeth. CPC is a powerful antibacterial agent, the prolonged use of which, under certain circumstances in conjunction with tea, coffee or red wine consumption or any strongly coloured food, can stain any plaque that remains on the teeth. It is recommended to wait for an hour after using any mouthwash before consuming any coloured food or drink.

Consumers should rinse their mouth for 30 seconds and then gargle for 30 seconds.

The product should be used within 12 months after breaking the seal.

Your mouth is likely quite clean! You'll notice that if you use the product prior to brushing your teeth or after a meal, you'll see more bits in the sink. If you use after brushing your teeth, you should see fewer bits because you've already remove some of the bacteria and food particles.
