Zellie's Founder, Dr. Ellie
Enjoy Zellie's mints and gum throughout the day to help improve oral health. Zellie's mints and gum are made with tooth-friendly xylitol which has many oral health benefits including helping to:
- Fight cavities
- Clean teeth
- Strengthen enamel
- Alleviate dry mouth
- Whiten teeth
- Freshen breath
- Alkalize saliva
Using Zellie's mints or gum in frequent small doses daily will help to reduce tooth sensitivity, strengthen tooth enamel, and reduce harmful plaque causing bacteria called streptococcus mutans.
How To Use Zellie's Gum:
Chew Zellie's gum just like you would any other brand of gum, although knowing that it's helping to clean and protect your teeth! Simply chew the gum until it's lost its flavor (no longer than 10 minutes) and then spit out the rest. We recommend chewing 1-3 pieces of gum per sitting, about 5 times per day. Each piece of Zellie's gum contains around 1 full gram of xylitol.
How To Use Zellie's Mints:
Dissolve a Zellie’s mint after each meal, snack or beverage throughout the day – Either chewing or sucking on the mint until the mint has dissolved – to help neutralize acidity for a cleaner, healthier mouth. You can swallow the remaining pieces of mint after chewing or allow them to dissolve. We recommend 1-4 mints per sitting, about 5 times per day. Each mint contains around 0.5 grams of xylitol.
Studies show that teeth benefit most from small, multiple exposures to xylitol each day, ideally 1-2 grams at each exposure totaling 6-10 grams per day. This amount, used regularly, can radically change the profile of bacteria in an infected mouth within just one year. Studies indicate that less than 3 grams of xylitol per day may not provide any oral health benefits and that, as the number of exposures to xylitol per day increases, so do the clinical benefits. Over 10 grams per day may not give you any additional dental health benefits, and at this amount, oral health changes appear to plateau.
When To Use Zellie's
After meals, snacks & drinks
Zellie’s are most effective at the end of meals, snacks, and drinks. Xylitol helps to alkalize your mouth to reduce the damage caused by acidity. Plus, Zellie's are a delicious treat at the end of meals for both adults and kids alike.
5 times daily
Studies show that a routine of xylitol 5 times throughout the day makes harmful plaque slippery and more easily cleaned off teeth by brushing and rinsing. Frequent, small doses of xylitol regularly is the best way to start seeing improvement in your tooth and gum health.
On the go
Whether you prefer gum or mints, Zellie’s are one of the easiest ways to start improving your oral health. Enjoy your Zellie's in the car, at work, while traveling, or anywhere else life takes you. Help protect your teeth on the go!
More Information
Increasing the frequency of xylitol consumption and considering the best timing will be your way to maximize its benefits. We suggest you strive for a 1 gram serving of xylitol (one Zellie's mint has around 0.5 grams of xylitol per mint – and one piece of Zellie's gum has about 1 gram of xylitol per piece) 5 times each day after meals, snacks and drinks.
Zellie’s are delicious and easy to use daily – taking them with you, wherever your day may lead. Zellie’s leave your mouth feeling fresh and clean, and with the confidence that each mint and pieces of gum is actually supporting your oral health in amazing ways.
Zellie's help improve oral health when used regularly throughout the day to help control mouth acidity, reduce bad oral bacteria, and encourage good bacteria to flourish. Zellie's are sweetened with 100% tooth-friendly xylitol which helps to strengthen and protect teeth. Countless studies have shown the oral health benefits of xylitol.
What Is Xylitol?
Xylitol is a naturally occurring five-carbon sugar found in many plant fibers, including fruits, vegetables, and hardwood trees. In its granular form, xylitol looks and tastes almost exactly like ordinary table sugar. However, xylitol is almost the exact opposite of sugar.
Kid Approved!
Zellie's are loved by both kids and adults. Learn more about how to care for children's teeth using xylitol and other oral care products.
