The Intelliherb company, in collaboration with Dr. John’s Candies, have developed an exciting new product that will change dentistry forever and improve the lives of all those people that hate to go to the dentist because of new cavities. Now there is a safe, effective, delicious, sugar-free, herbal lollipop that kills cavity-causing bacteria. Int J. Oral Sci. (2011) 3:13-20.
Recently, after years of testing dental-specific herbs, a microbiologist, Dr. Wenyuan Shi, PhD, chair of the Oral Biology Department at UCLA, identified a specific herbal formula that kills the cavity-forming bugs(Strep. mutans and Sobrinus) that cause almost all cavities. Antibacterial Compounds from Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Dr. Jian He, et. al., J Nat. Prod. 2006, 69, 121-124.
This new product selectively kills only the cavity-forming bugs and leaves all the good bacteria alone. These microbiologists developed a new class of bacterial-selective molecules to target only the cavity-forming bugs and deliver the antimicrobial herb selectively to the target bugs. Antimicrobial Agents and Chem., Randall Eckert, et. al., Nov, 2006, vol.50, no 11. Only 15mg of licorice powder per lollipop eliminates 99.9% of these bacteria in the mouth, in 5-10 minutes. The company developed the candy as a lollipop, in order to have the exposure of the mouth to the active ingredient over this longer amount of time.
This groundbreaking new product, Dr. John’s Herbal Lollipop, combines 3000 year old Chinese traditional herbal medicine, with modern peptide science to give us a delicious, safe, effective way to eliminate cavity-forming bugs while preserving the pro-biotic(good bug) benefits of the healthy normal bugs.
Patients now have an easy, delcious way to fight back and eliminate the cavity bugs in thier mouths, at home, and avoid the discomfort and cost of dental fillings and crowns. One Dr. John’s Herbal lollipop, 2 times a day for 10 days disables and kills the cavity-forming bugs in the mouth for 12-27 weeks. Therefore, use of the lollipops dosing 20 pack between 2-4 times a year combined with a good dental hygiene program and proper diet effectively stops cavities.
Finally, a delicious, safe, effective, sugar-free herbal lollipop that kills the bugs that cause cavities. Call the office to order or buy online at www.drjohns.com.
