ABOUT:
Xlear, Inc., the leading manufacturer of xylitol products, recently introduced its strawberry-banana flavored kid’s Spry Tooth Gel. The gel is sweetened with 100 percent xylitol, an all natural sweetener that helps to reduce the risk of tooth decay. The gel was developed for children ages three months and up and can be applied their teeth and gums to help promote good oral care at an early age. Xlear has also partnered with Live-Right, the maker of the Baby Banana Brush, to offer a combo kit that includes the Baby Banana Brush and strawberry-banana flavored Spry Tooth Gel.
Spry Tooth Gel is sugar-free, fluoride-free and safe to swallow, unlike most children’s toothpastes. Clinical studies have proven that consistent use of product sweetened with 100 percent xylitol can help promote good oral care and reduce the risk of tooth decay. Xylitol-rich products, such as Xlear’s strawberry-banana flavored Spry Tooth Gel, create a healthier oral environment and help to increase mineral absorption back into the enamel of the teeth. Spry Tooth Gel is part of the Spry Dental Defense System, which is a growing line of oral care products that includes Spry gum, mints, oral rinse, toothpastes and oral mist spray.
MY THOUGHTS:
My boys love to brush their teeth but they are very picky already over toothpaste flavors. They love the new Strawberry-Banana flavored Spry Tooth Gel and I love that it is sugar-free and fluoride-free because of course they swallow it. I guess I never really thought about sugar being in toothpaste before but I like that the Spry Tooth Gel is sweetened naturally and still helps to reduce tooth decay. Oh and not only does it clean my kids teeth but it helps with their enamel and mineral absorption in their teeth, which is a bonus!
I got the chance to review the Original Baby Banana Brush Training Toothbrush with Kid’s Spry Tooth Gel with Xlitol. The set is nice because you not only get a soft & flexible training toothbrush but all the appropriate tooth gel to go with it. The Baby Banana Brush is an adorable toothbrush that looks like a banana and is super easy to hold and brush with. It bends as your child pushes on it, and it is safe silicone construction– latex free, non-allergenic, BPA free, phthalate free. Oh and did I mention dishwasher safe!
Now you add the Spry Tooth Gel to the Baby Banana Brush and my 2 and 3 year old start fighting! The Strawberry Banana tooth gel sounded so good, I admit I tried it! It is a little sweet and so delicious that I can see why my boys want to constantly brush their teeth. The Original flavor Tooth Gel is light and doesn’t have much of a taste but my boys still like that one too! The Spry Tooth Gel is safe for age 3 months and up.
