USANA Fluoride-Free Whitening Toothpaste
A Brighter Way to Ban Bad Breath and Reveal a Whiter Smile
Your teeth may seem small, but they have some big jobs. Teeth give shape to your face, help you pronounce words properly, and—most importantly—allow you to chew your food.
Chewing begins to break down food as part of the digestive process. This is vital for your physical health, because it’s how your body gets the nutrients it needs to function. And, the appearance of your teeth also plays a role in how you feel about yourself. So, a healthy, bright smile is equally important for your confidence and emotional health, too.*
Brushing your teeth twice a day, along with regular flossing between teeth, is essential to your dental health. Brushing clears away food, grime, and plaque (a thin, sticky film that forms on your teeth), which can go a long way in preserving your oral health.*
You have a lot of choices when it comes to selecting a toothpaste. USANA Whitening Toothpaste is a safe, gentle option made without harsh chemicals or artificial flavors or colors. So, it’s a bright choice for the whole family. This fluoride-free paste is made from naturally-derived ingredients. And it’s unlike many other toothpastes on the market, because it supplies ADP-1. This postbiotic helps support the cleansing process by targeting and clearing away unwanted compounds that can dull your teeth or cause bad breath.*
What is a postbiotic? Learn more about ADP-1 in Whitening Toothpaste.
You’ve likely heard of probiotics, which are live organisms that can be consumed to deliver a health benefit. Or prebiotics, which are fibers that help feed bacteria. A new area of research is something called postbiotics.
This research has revealed that, in some cases, probiotic bacteria do not need to be alive to provide a desired benefit. The compounds that the bacteria produce or that are released as their cells disintegrate are sufficient to create a response. (These compounds can include proteins and peptides, enzymes, or other acids.)
The isolated compounds are postbiotics.
A postbiotic delivers the functional components from probiotic bacteria cells. But, the bacteria are no longer alive. This allows you to get many of the same benefits of a live strain in a product that otherwise could not contain a probiotic.
Live bacteria are fragile and can easily be destroyed during processing. Or they simply don’t survive well in certain types of products—like a toothpaste. Isolating the active compounds from live probiotic bacteria creates a stable delivery form that can be used in these types of products to give you the desired benefits.
The postbiotic ADP-1 in Whitening Toothpaste is an inactivated form of the probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus paracasei. Research has shown that ADP-1 is stable and delivers the benefits of the probiotic, helping Whitening Toothpaste provide an exceptional clean that can help maintain good oral health.
USANA Whitening Toothpaste freshens breath and offers a clean that lasts for up to 12 hours. So, your mouth will look and feel clean and fresh all-day long. And it’s been shown to visibly whiten teeth for a healthy-looking smile—without using hydrogen peroxide. In fact, tests from an independent lab found that USANA Whitening Toothpaste removed 78.3 percent of surface stains (relative to the American Dental Association Reference).
Let’s take a closer look at what’s in every tube of Whitening Toothpaste.
USANA Whitening Toothpaste Ingredients
| Calcium Carbonate, Silica, and Sodium Bicarbonate (commonly known as baking soda) | Mild abrasives that clean and polish teeth by removing debris and surface stains without damaging tooth enamel for a whiter look. |
| Sea Salt | Gently scrubs and polishes teeth, and also stimulates saliva to bring moisture into oral tissues for a beautiful smile. |
| Aloe Vera | Soothes, cleanses, and helps teeth shine by leaving a slick surface that is difficult for dirt or plaque to adhere to. |
| Coconut Oil | Cleanses teeth and gums with lauric acid—a medium-chain fatty acid with unique properties for supporting oral health. |
| Stevioside | A naturally-derived sweetener extracted from leaves of Stevia that won’t cause tooth decay. |
| Menthol | Refreshes breath and mouth. |
| ADP-1 (Lactobacillus paracasei) | Supports cleansing process by clearing away unwanted compounds that can cause bad breath or give your teeth a dull appearance. Research has shown that, after about eight weeks, using ADP-1 helped maintain balanced oral microflora better than placebo to help keep teeth clean for a healthy-looking smile. |
There’s one ingredient commonly found in most toothpastes that you will NOT see in USANA Whitening Toothpaste: fluoride.
Many chemical-conscious consumers already drink fluoridated water and do not want to add more to their daily exposure. Using fluoride is a personal choice that’s best handled individually between a family and a trusted dental professional.
