• Order Squigle

  This is crucial: Use Squigle® Enamel Saver® Toothpaste exclusively. Patented Enamel Saver is free of SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) and other irritating ingredients. The flavor is mild to prevent irritation of delicate tissues. Squigle® has 36% Xylitol to prevent plaque and cavities better than regular toothpaste. Clinical trials show Squigle prevents gum disease and improves the condition of gum disease sufferers.
  
  
• Don't use mouthwash.
  
  
• Floss at least once a day, before you brush. Use unwaxed floss.
  
  
• Use a small headed, soft bristled brush. Apply Squigle® along the full length of your toothbrush. Brush for 2 minutes. When you are done brushing, gently brush your tongue (especially the back), the inside of your cheeks, and the roof of your mouth. Then rinse.
  
  
• Chew an ultrahigh xylitol gum such as Epic® or Spry®, preferably fruit flavor (not cinnamon or spearmint).
