Problem
Dental hypersensitivity, affecting a significant portion of the population, arises from the exposure of dentinal tubules due to enamel erosion or receding gumlines. Traditional treatments offer limited efficacy and short-term relief, failing to provide a long-lasting solution for the pain caused by stimuli reaching the exposed nerves.
Solution
GreenMark develops CrystLCare™ Biorestorative dental strips, a fluoride-free solution designed to provide immediate and long-lasting relief from dental sensitivity. These easy-to-use strips contain calcium and phosphate nanoparticles that are released by natural enzymes in saliva. Upon release, these minerals form hydroxyapatite crystals that effectively occlude exposed dentinal tubules and fill porosities in the enamel. This targeted deposition of minerals provides a non-invasive approach to managing dental sensitivity and promoting proactive oral health.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes individuals experiencing dental hypersensitivity due to enamel erosion, receding gumlines, or post-whitening treatments, as well as dentists and hygienists seeking non-invasive treatment options for their patients.
Features
- Fluoride-free formulation suitable for patients seeking alternatives to fluoride treatments
- Utilizes calcium and phosphate nanoparticles to remineralize and occlude exposed dentinal tubules
- Dissolvable strip format for easy and direct application to sensitive areas
- Mineral-loaded particles target and adhere to tooth porosities, delivering essential mineral components
- Bioresorbable particle technology ensures efficient mineral delivery and rapid degradation by salivary amylase
