Dental and Oral Health: 
Your Daily Oral Care Guide

Those searching for the best toothpaste or comparing current results from a toothpaste test should focus not only on cleaning but also on remineralisation, microbiome protection, and long-term effects. The mouth is not only important for dental health: 
A healthy microbiome in the mouth also influences the immune system, inflammatory processes, and even blood pressure regulation.

1. The right toothpaste – remineralisation instead of just cleaning
   Toothpaste should not only clean but: 
   
   • Remineralise tooth enamel
   • Repair microscopic defects
   • Reduce sensitivities
   • Stabilise the microbiome 
     
     
   ApaCare Zahncreme (Fluoride + Hydroxylapatite) 
   Strengthens tooth enamel, smooths the surface, reduces sensitivities, and ensures naturally whiter teeth. 
   ApaCare OraLactin Zahncreme 
   Complements protection with pre- and postbiotics to stabilise the oral flora. 
2. The right toothbrush – gentle and effective
   Electric toothbrushes clean more thoroughly and compensate for brushing errors 
   ApaCare Sonic Change Sonic Toothbrush (35,000 vibrations/min) and the innovative 3D sensitive toothbrushes. With programmes for Clean, White, Polish, GumCare, and Sensitive. 
   For very sensitive teeth: 
   ApaCare Hand Toothbrush with 3D Micro Clean Bristles 
3. Polishing – 1–2× a week against plaque & discolourations 
   Plaque forms even with good oral hygiene (coffee, tea, red wine, nicotine). Light discolourations can be gently reduced at home.
   ApaCare Polish 
   Smooths the surface, reduces new plaque and tartar formation, and prolongs the effects of professional dental cleaning. 
4. Chewing gum as an oral care aid (proper use) 
   Sugar-free chewing gum: 
   
   • Stimulates saliva flow
   • Supports remineralisation
   • Strengthens the immune defence in the mouth 
     
     
   ApaCare Gum (Xylitol Anti-Caries) 
   Xylitol inhibits cavity-causing bacteria and can reduce the risk of caries.
   
5. Building up oral flora – microbiome instead of “weapon against germs” 
   Modern oral care means: 
   Not only disinfecting but stabilising the bacterial balance. 
   
   ApaCare OraLactin Toothpaste and liquid mouthwash (Pre- & Postbiotics) 
   OraLactin Probiotic Course (live microorganisms, course-based) 
   Particularly suitable: 
   
   • After prophylaxis / treatment
   • For bad breath
   • With periodontal risk
   • With sensitive mucous membranes

6. Nutrition – oral health starts with the microbiome 
   Important factors: 
   

   • Nitrate-rich foods (beetroot, leafy vegetables) promote NO metabolism and vascular health 
   • Polyphenols (berries, papaya) have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects 
   • Sugar is a main driver of caries and inflammation 
   • Wait up to 1-2 hours after acid exposure before brushing
   Additionally: PowerPulse as a functional Protein-Beet-Berry Drink and Power Pulse Superfruit Gummies as a snack with a purpose for between meals.

Conclusion 

The best toothpaste is not only the one with the strongest cleaning power – but the one that protects enamel, stabilises the microbiome, and supports long-term oral health.

Dental and oral health today is a holistic concept: 

Strengthen enamel + stabilise oral flora + optimise nutrition – and thus protect teeth, gums, and well-being in the long term.
