SensitiveGumThe Gum Fertin has formulated SensitiveGum with Potas-sium, Calcium and Fluoride, which are all ingredi-ents with proven oral care benefits1,2,3,4, especially for hypersensitivity. The gum has been developed with a spearmint flavor, and it is sweetened with Xylitol and Stevia (no Aspartame).

Bi-Layered Compressed GumFor SensitiveGum, Fertin’s patented Bi-layered compressed chewing gum technology has been utilized. This innovative chewing gum technology is well suited for the inclusion of active ingredients due to a dry and cool manufacturing process, which is ideal for sensitive ingredients. Furthermore, the powder base of the gum ensures an efficient re-lease of the active substances.

Chewing gum and Dental Health For many years, the positive oral benefits of sugar-free chewing gum have been well known5. Plaque removal6, saliva flow7, caries protection8 and re-mineralization9 are known benefits of chewing gum by itself. Moreover, chewing gum also releases ac-tives in the oral cavity, an ideal feature for concepts targeting the mouth and teeth.

SensitiveGum BenefitsPotassium has been used in toothpaste for decades and studies have indicated that its’ ions depolarize the nerve endings of the teeth, inhibiting hypersen-sitivity1,2,3. Fluoride is added to SensitiveGum as a base ingredient for overall protection against cavi-ties4. The combination of the active ingredient bene- fits, and the inherent benefits of gum, make this a useful aid in managing dentin hypersensitivity. When looking at the growth in number of product launches for products targeting dentin hypersensi-tivity10, Fertin is convinced that this product comes with a sizeable market potential.

SafetySensitiveGum is safe for human use. All raw materi-als are permitted and approved as food ingredients or food additives according to the Danish and EU legislation on food.

GumThe Gum WhiteGum is a chewing gum that is meant to aid in maintaining a healthy oral hygiene, with a specific focus on teeth whitening. The product comes in a Whitemint flavor and is sweetened with Xylitol and Stevia (no Aspartame)

Bi-Layered Compressed GumFor WhiteGum, Fertin’s patented Bi-layered com- pressed chewing gum technology has been utilized. This innovative chewing gum technology is well sui-ted for the inclusion of active ingredients due to a dry and cool manufacturing process, which is ideal for sensitive ingredients. Furthermore, the powder base of the gum ensures an efficient release of the active substances.

Chewing gum and Dental Health For many years, the positive oral benefits of sugar-free chewing gum have been well known2. Plaque removal3, saliva flow4, caries protection5 and re-mineralization6 are known and documented bene-fits of chewing gum by itself.

WhiteGum BenefitsBy adding active ingredients with oral care bene-fits1,7,9,10, such as Calcium Pyrophosphate, Calcium Carbonate, Sodium Bicarbonate (baking soda) and Fluoride, the inherent benefits of chewing gum are complemented by the effects of the active ingredi-ents. In addition, the local delivery in the oral cavity achieved by chewing gum is very beneficial. Calci-um Pyrophosphate, Calcium Carbonate and Baking Soda have been selected based on the document-ed whitening effects1,9,10. The inclusion of Fluoride is meant to be supportive, by targeting cavity pro-tection7, and thereby creating a well-rounded con-cept for general oral care protection, specifically focused on whitening. Further to the actual product benefits, WhiteGum will cater to a very strong and growing whitening and fluoride market8.

SafetyWhiteGum is safe for human use. All raw materials are permitted and approved as food ingredients or food additives according to the Danish and EU leg-islation on food.
