Dentists Recommend Fluoride Rinses to Treat Sensitivity. If you have sensitive teeth and your dentist has recommended a fluoride rinse, now you can go natural. Healthy Teeth rinse contains the same level of fluoride as the mass market brands but doesn’t have any of the harsh ingredients like alcohol. Healthy Teeth has earned the American Dental Association’s Seal of Acceptance so you know it is proven to work, and the fresh mint taste will leave your breath smelling fresh and clean.| Ingredient | Source | Purpose | | Sodium fluoride (0.05%) (0.02% w/v fluoride ion) | Fluorite, a calcium fluoride rich ore | Anticavity | | Purified water | Local source | Base | | Vegetable glycerin | Rapeseed (canola) oil | Base | | Aloe vera gel | Aloe vera plant | Soothing | | Sodium phosphate monobasic | Mineral | pH balance | | Xylitol | Corn | Natural sweetener | | Natural flavors | Essential oils | Natural flavor | | Polysorbate 80 | Polyethoxylated sorbitan & oleic acid | Emulsifier | | Citric acid | Corn | Natural preservative | | Grapefruit seed extract | Plant | Antibacterial* | | Menthol | Mint oil | Antibacterial / antispetic |
