Simple, Brushless Oral Care When Traditional Brushing Becomes a Challenge
In assisted living and nursing home settings, oral hygiene often becomes inconsistent — not due to neglect, but because traditional brushing routines can be difficult or even impossible for many residents. Challenges such as limited mobility, cognitive decline, dry mouth, or difficulty handling toothbrushes make daily oral care a persistent issue.
Yet oral health is deeply connected to overall wellness. Bacteria in the mouth can contribute to gum disease, respiratory infections, and even systemic inflammation. Ensuring consistent oral care is not just about hygiene — it’s a matter of health and dignity.
DentiMints™ is an innovative oral hygiene solution designed to help.
A Simple and Convenient Oral Hygiene Option
DentiMints™ are chewable dental mints that help clean the mouth, support gum health, and freshen breath — all without the need for a toothbrush, toothpaste, or rinsing.
- Brushless
- Waterless
- No Rinse Needed
- Easy to Use - Ideal for Staff Administered or Independent Use
- Dental Mints Dissolve Via Chewing and Swishing in Mouth
Residents can simply chew and swish the mint around the mouth for 30 seconds. The process is simple, dignified, and accessible — even for individuals with physical limitations or cognitive impairment.
Backed by Functional Ingredients
Each DentiMints™ tablet is formulated with evidence-based ingredients used in professional oral care:
- ExoCyan Cran – a patented cranberry extract that helps reduce bad bacteria, prevent plaque build-up, protect teeth, and support healthy gums
- Xylitol – inhibits bacterial growth and helps prevent tooth decay
- Sodium Bicarbonate – neutralizes acid and freshens breath
- Calcium Lactate – supports enamel remineralization and tooth strength
- Silica – provides a gentle brushing effect by helping remove debris from teeth
These ingredients work together to promote a healthy oral environment between or in place of brushing routines.
Designed for Use in Elder Care Facilities
DentiMints can be implemented in a variety of ways across long-term care and assisted living settings:
- Use during morning or evening hygiene routines
- Offer after meals to remove food debris and reduce bacteria
- Provide as a comfort item for residents who struggle with traditional brushing
- Include in welcome kits or hygiene supplies for new residents
- Distribute tablets directly on food trays during mealtimes for effortless oral care integration
Flexible Packaging Options
DentiMints™ are available in several formats to suit different facility needs:
- 10-tablet resealable packets – great for personal resident use
- 20-tablet resealable packets – ideal for extended use
- 1,000-tablet sealed buckets – for nurse station or staff distribution
- 20,000-tablet sealed buckets – ideal for large-volume use or direct distribution on meal trays
These options make it easy to distribute DentiMints during meals, care routines, or as part of staff-administered hygiene plans.
