Squigle Enamel Saver Toothpaste is Irritant-Free.

Enamel Saver does NOT contain SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) and other irritating ingredients. Squigle Toothpaste was designed to be your Mouth Friend.

It's free of harsh abrasives, stinging flavors, irritating tartar control agents and bleaches, and of course it's free of SLS and other irritating detergents. Research has linked SLS directly to outbreaks of canker sores.

Why Squigle® is the Best Toothpaste for Canker Sore Sufferers:

1. It's free of SLS and other irritating ingredients. For a more complete list of irritating ingredients to avoid, see Protect your Mouth: Avoid Harsh Toothpaste Ingredients.
2. It contains 36% by weight of natural Xylitol - far more than any other toothpaste - to profoundly inhibit the growth of plaque. Plaque is an irritant that triggers canker sores.
3. It can be used by people with canker sores and mouth ulcers because it doesn't cause further pain.
4. It prevents tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath better than your regular toothpaste.
5. It tastes great - you'll love using it. Other SLS-free toothpastes taste weird or don't foam at all.
6. Canker sore sufferers benefit more from Squigle than from any other canker sore toothpaste.

Instructions for Patients with Canker Sores

These instructions are provided as a guide to patients who have been diagnosed by a physician or dentist. These Instructions have been created after hundreds of hours of discussions with patients and physicians. They are not meant to be rigid and unchanging. Of course, we hope they work for you.

This is crucial: Use SQUIGLE® Toothpaste exclusively. Patented SQUIGLE is free of SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) and other irritating ingredients such as cocamidopropyl betaine, tartar control agents, and bleaches. And it has a mild flavor to prevent irritation of delicate tissues.

• If you feel you need to use mouthwash, use 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate (a prescription antimicrobial rinse) twice a day, as needed.
• Floss at least once a day, before you brush. Use unwaxed floss. If your teeth are closely spaced, use Glide® floss. If your ulcers are too painful to use floss, use an oral irrigator.
• If possible, gently brush your tongue, roof of mouth, and inside of cheeks with a soft bristled, small headed brush. This will further reduce the amount of irritating plaque in your mouth.
• No baking soda -- it only makes matters worse.
• No chewing gum, especially no cinnamon or spearmint. One exception (see below). Don't use candy or breath mints, especially cinnamon or spearmint.
• For terrible attacks, try oral cortisone (methyl prednisolone dose pack -- prescription required).
• A short course of oral tetracycline is OK. So is a short course of antifungal therapy or antiviral therapy.
• Take a multivitamin + multimineral daily, after a meal. (Solgar VM-75® is OK). In addition, take 500 mg to 1000 mg vitamin C daily. Get sufficient rest each night.
• Visit an allergist to get tested for food allergies and sensitivities. Then avoid any foods you are allergic to or sensitive to.
• If you get any painful canker sores, they can be treated by applying ORA5® mild cauterizing agent
• If you still persist in getting life-disrupting canker sores, and you do not use tobacco in any form, try chewing a nicotine gum such as Nicorette® (four 2 mg tablets per day -- this is equivalent to smoking one cigarette per day).
