Product Information - XTAR is a specialized toothpaste for calculus prone patients, hence it is recommended only as a toothpaste for calculus control. Brush teeth thoroughly after each meal or at least twice a day. To minimize swallowing by child, use only pea sized amount. Child’s brushing and rinsing should be under adult supervision. Children under 2 years of age, consult a doctor/dentist. XTAR should be recommended for minimum 8-12 weeks and after which doctor should evaluate the results and continue further treatment.
- Pyrophosphates (crystal growth inhibitor) act as chelating agent and removes calcium from the saliva to form a soluble complex that can be rinsed away with water thereby controlling new calculus buildup.
- Fluoride also inhibits the metabolism of acid-producing bacteria thereby indirectly help in tartar control in addition to controlling cavities.
- The toothpaste cannot dissolve the tartar that has already bonded with the enamel, but it can stop future deposits from forming.
- Recommended dosage/application : As directed by the physician.
- Any calcium phosphate that has not yet bonded to teeth is attracted to the sodium pyrophosphate. When the new compound mixes with water, it is completely dissolved.
