BioMin toothpaste is described as armour for teeth and comes in three options – BioMinF with fluoride, BioMinC is fluoride free and BioMin for Kids strawberry flavour. It strengthens and protects enamel increasing acid resistance and reducing sensitivity by blocking exposed dentine tubules. The unique technology behind BioMin™ F toothpaste provides LOWER Fluoride content with LONG LASTING performance (for up to 12 hours).

The patented technology utilises Fluoride-containing bioactive particles (BioMin® F) and chloride-containing bioactive particles (BioMin® C) The fluoride within BioMin® F is incorporated within the structure of the particles, so fluoride is delivered gradually as these particles dissolves for up to 12 hours. Due to this slow release process, lower overall concentration of Fluoride is required providing greater effectiveness and efficiency (up to 8 times longer than traditional Fluoride toothpastes). BioMin® toothpastes mimic and enhances the action of saliva providing protection and relief to all tooth surfaces.

“BioMin has been described as having a biomimetic action, meaning that it mimics or copies the body’s natural processes. Unlike the soluble fluoride contained in conventional toothpastes, the fluoride is bound within the actual structure of BioMin F. The fluoride in all other toothpastes, even the very high fluoride ones, dissolves and is rinsed away by saliva within an hour or so. In contrast, BioMin is designed to adhere to the teeth, continuously releasing a low, controlled amounts of calcium, fluoride and phosphate ions over 12 hours. These then work within the saliva to produce fluorapatite, depositing it on the tooth’s surface and inside the tiny dentinal tubules.  Over time these become plugged with fluorapatite, preventing the fluid flow inside the tubules which triggers sensitivity. Demineralisation, where the enamel starts to soften, is considered to be the precursor to enamel decay, so it’s important to halt and if possible reverse it. Where fluorapatite is deposited on the teeth, it also works to protect damaged or eroded tooth enamel, replenishing it and strengthening the teeth”.

See image gallery for how low fluoride long impact compares with most fluoride toothpastes. This short video summarises how it works. 

You may have seen the BBC Four Television programme ‘How to Make’ where Biomin was described as Magic for teeth! Find out more about it here.

Biomin is a low abrasive toothpaste – RDA 68 which releases fluoride from the BioActive glass  over 12 hours. Recommended for routine use and can help with managing sensitivity, preventing tooth decay, reducing acid erosion, MIH – molar incisor hypomineralisation, and white spot lesions.

BioMin is vegan

To maximise the benefits of BioMin toothpaste, after brushing hold the paste in your mouth and swish it round the teeth so it reaches as much of the tooth surfaces as possible. Then spit out but don’t rinse your mouth out with water. 

Learn more about each option below.

A new study has confirmed that BioMinF is more effective than other toothpastes tested in reducing sensitivity following dental scaling and root planing (Contemporary Clinical Dentistry, 2018).

BioMinF

75mls for over 7 years old

The study showed that BiominF improves sensitivity on a daily basis but also has an immediate effect in reducing sensitivity straight after scaling (dental professional cleaning).

It contains low levels of Fluoride which provide added protection against the effect of acidic and sugary food and drinks.

How it works – BioMinF adheres to tooth surfaces and slowly dissolves releasing calcium, phosphate and fluoride ions over a period of 8-12 hours. The surface forms acid resistant fluorapatite (tooth mineral) which makes BioMinF more effective than other toothpastes where the active ingredients are washed away and become ineffective less then two hours after brushing.

BioMinF is very effective over night after brushing and at the same time helps reduce tooth decay and promotes healthy tooth structure. Remember to spit out but not rinse after brushing. Clean between teeth BEFORE tooth brushing. More healthy tips for happy teeth can be found https://growingsmiles.co.uk/healthy-tips/

Every time you put acidic food or drink e.g fruit juices, pickles, fizzy drinks, the enamel covering your teeth starts to dissolve (demineralisation). Enamel is the outer coating of the teeth you see in the mouth – it is the hardest substance in the body – harder than bone!

Saliva is full of Calcium and Phosphate to replace lost minerals from demineralisation. If you do not allow this natural process (remineralisation) enough time to heal the tooth surfaces then sensitivity, tooth surface loss (e.g. acid erosion) and/or tooth decay can occur. BiominF provides a slow release of Calcium, Phosphate and Fluoride ions that dissolve into the saliva and protect the teeth for up to 12 hours.

How to use BiominF https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CUt073n5Og

Ingredients

BioMin™ F toothpaste contains the following ingredients;  Glycerin, Silica, PEG 400, Fluoro Calcium Phospho Silicate, Sodium Lauryl Sulphate, Titanium Dioxide, Aroma, Carbomer, Potassium Acesulfame.

Biomin for kids

BioMinF for kids toothpaste is the new kids armour for teeth! 50g Strawberry flavour.

New BioMin F for Kids has been shown to offer outstanding protection to children’s teeth. Based on the same innovative technology as original BioMin F, BioMin F for Kids releases a controlled and continuous supply of fluoride, calcium and phosphate to form a protective barrier on the teeth, strengthening tooth enamel and remineralising initial surface damage.

Key Benefits

  • “Smart technology”. Unique, continuous low level mineral delivery for up to 12 hours after brushing
  • Small particles, big benefits. The majority of BioMin™ particles are small enough to penetrate damaged surfaces of the teeth
  • Low level Fluoride content with OPTIMISED protection
  • Provides teeth with superior protection and resistance to attack from acidic food and drinks
  • Strengthens and protects tooth surfaces.

Brush with BioMin™ F for Kids toothpaste twice daily (before breakfast and last thing at night) to help protect tooth surfaces and prevent cavities and acid erosion.

Use a smear (under 3) or pea sized blob (over 3 years) of Biomin for kids and brush every surface of all teeth. A child needs you to brush for them initially and then will need to be supervised to make sure brushing is thorough.

Encourage children to spit out any excess toothpaste into the sink but don’t rinse with water! (Rinsing washes away the active ingredients of the toothpaste before they have a chance to work). Do not let children eat toothpaste from the tube.

Ingredients

BioMin™ F for Kids toothpaste contains the following ingredients; Glycerin, Silica, PEG 400, Fluoro Calcium Phospho Silicate, Sodium Lauryl Sulphate, Aroma, Carbomer, Potassium Acesulfame. Fluoride concentration is 530μg/g by weight. Fluoride <600ppm when packed

Do not use if you are allergic to any of the ingredients.

Parents or carers should brush their children’s teeth:
• as soon as they erupt
• twice a day
• last thing at night (or before bedtime) and on one other occasion
• with a toothpaste containing at least 1000 ppm fluoride
• using only a smear of toothpaste under 3, over 3 a pea sized blob.

BioMin Technologies Limited was established in 2014 to commercialise the award winning research conducted over the past decade at Queen Mary University London and Imperial College, London. This research and product formation focused on developing bioactive glass materials to help reduce tooth sensitivity, help replace lost mineral from tooth surfaces and protect against tooth decay.

    Already noticing a difference, I’m trying to follow the directions to brush for 2 mins and then swirl for 30 seconds…although sometimes feels easier to do it the other way round!

    • leigh Hunter

      Thank you! 🙂 Delighted this is working for you. Biomin has been a game changer for many. 2 minutes is a lot longer than we think! Then another 30 seconds – well done for using as advised. It’s worth it. Really helpful review. Very many thanks for sharing. 🙂

    Biomin F is an excellent toothpaste; the best I’ve used. The four tubes of toothpaste were well packed and the delivery was fast and efficient.

    I have noticed a slight reduction in sensitivity to hot and cold since using BioMin F and the taste is pleasant. It was recommended by my Hygeinist after I found the cold water made my teeth feel so sensitive.

    A product I’ve been using for a number of years. Proven to be more beneficial than other toothpaste.
    I think it has improved my teeth. Wouldn’t stop using it and highly recommend it.
