These instructions are to be followed 2-3 times a day, usually
after breakfast, after lunch and at bed time. For patients who
can not follow this routine after lunch, if necessary we
recommend choosing one of either Chewing Gum, Power Drops, or
Breath Spray to maintain fresh breath throughout the day. |

- It is important that you remember not to use any water
with these products as they need to remain undiluted.
- Also, keep the bottle of oral rinse and the toothgel tube
tightly closed and away from the sun when not in use. Never
store the mouth rinse in a clear plastic bottle.

**Note: These are the exact
instructions that I recommend for the most severe cases I treat.
You may find that you will adapt them to suit your own personal
preferences. This is perfectly OK - the goal is to make sure the
products are working for you. |

Instructions: |
|
| |
- Gently scrape your tongue with the rounded edge of the
tongue scraper 4-5 strokes, moving the tongue cleaner forward
each time. This will help in removing the mucous layer which
has been protecting the bacteria living on your tongue. (Do
not scrape vigorously to the point of bleeding, but
firm enough to remove the mucous layer.)
- Rinse off the tongue scraper, then apply a small amount of
TheraBreath toothgel to the rounded edge of the tongue scraper
and gently scrape another 4-5 strokes. This step applies the
powerful oxygenating toothgel to the newly exposed surface of
your tongue, thus allowing the oxygenating action to begin.
Reach as far back as possible without gagging.
DO NOT RINSE,
but you can then wash off the tongue scraper after this step.
- Place a normal amount of TheraBreath toothgel on a
dry toothbrush and brush for 2-3 minutes. Besides
your teeth, also gently brush your tongue, reaching as far
back as possible. Make sure to include the roof of your mouth
and the inside of your cheeks with this brushing. (The
bacteria are extemely sticky and end up almost everywhere in
your mouth.) Notice that I keep
stressing the word gently
- you do not have to
brush hard, but make sure that you are thorough.
When brushing your teeth, remember to angle the brush towards
your gumline, feeling the bristles gently sliding under the
gumline. Do not rinse with water after this step. You may,
however, spit out any excess saliva and toothgel.
- In order to rinse out your mouth properly and in order to
attack the bacteria, pour 2 capfuls of TheraBreath medicated
rinse into a clean glass. Rinse the toothgel from your mouth
with this rinse. While doing so, "swish" the rinse all over
your mouth for 90 seconds in order to cover all the oral
surfaces with the concentrated oxygen. It is NOT
RECOMMENDED to drink directly from the bottle - this
will likely contaminate the rinse.
- Take a normal-sized string of dental floss and wet the
entire piece with TheraBreath oral rinse. Then floss your
teeth thoroughly so that the medicated rinse will pass through
all of the tooth contacts. This step ensures that the Chlorine
Dioxide will attack the bacteria located here.
- Take 2 fresh capfuls of the rinse, and gargle for 90
seconds, attempting to get the rinse as far back as possible,
without gagging. After gargling, spit out the rinse.
(Do not eat or drink anything
for 20 minutes following this procedure).
If
some of the rinse is swallowed, do not be alarmed. It is
completely safe if digested (see below).
- Blow your nose to clear out any excess mucous from your
nasal passages. Put 1-2 of the
TheraBreath Nasal-Sinus Drops
in each nostril. Allow the
drops to run through your sinus passages and down the back of
your throat.

Please Read the Following: |
|
| |
*** If a Sour, Bitter, or Salty Taste Persists:
In some cases, a difference in taste may occur for the first few
days after starting the products. THIS IS ONLY TEMPORARY. It's
due to the oxidation of metals in existing dental restorations
and the new sensitivity of your new clean taste buds. To
overcome this taste, apply baking soda to your toothbrush before
placing the toothgel on it. This counteracts any acidity you may
have in your mouth. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
*** Saliva Stimulation Tablets: For those who have
a dry mouth or remaining sour/bitter/salty tastes (even after
using our products), you may want to try these lozenges. They
were developed at a Cancer Institute in Sweden for those who had
undergone head and neck radiation and whose salivary glands were
destroyed. Just take 1 tablet and let it sit on your tongue as
it melts. Do not chew them or swallow them! As
they melt, the natural ingredients will stimulate the production
of Oxygen-Rich Saliva to give you a fresh, clean taste. Most
people use 4-6/day. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
*** SWALLOWING THE RINSE: Many people prefer to
actual swallow the TheraBreath rinse. While this is perfectly
safe, most patients prefer to actually swallow the
AktivOxigen Rinse
(made from the tablets) instead of the mouthwash since it has no
flavor. In this case, we recommend using your regular
TheraBreath rinse to gargle, but swallowing 1-2 capfuls of the
AktivOxigen rinse at the end of your oral routine. The purpose
of swallowing the rinse is to reach bacteria that are beyond
your 'Gagging Point' and therefore have not yet had contact with
the medication. |
