Triple Whitening Toothpaste - Cinnamon Mint

For the bold and spicy, meet the Cinnamon Mint sensation.

Clean teeth and whiten enamel with non-toxic ingredients backed by scientific research and approved by dentists. Gem's high-performance Triple Whitening range gives you a deeper clean and a brighter smile, and contains earth minerals and an oral probiotic, Lactobascillus Salivarus, to keep your mouth's microbiome happy and healthy, while Sodium Bicarbonate and Silica clean and whiten tooth enamel without sensitivity.

Probiotic-rich, non-toxic, Australian-made and the first toothpaste in Australia to contain an oral probiotic (Lactobascillus Salivarus). Every ingredient was carefully selected and is underpinned by scientific research, like Hydroxyapatite a safe and proven remineralising agent. We also use a combination of the naturally powerful Sodium Bicarbonate and Silica to help clean and whiten tooth enamel. 

INGREDIENTS

Calcium Carbonate

Mined from the earth, we use this natural mineral as a mild abrasive to help prevent plaque build-up, remove surface stains and whiten and polish teeth. Unlike abrasives of the past, it offers a gentle clean, without scratching or damaging the tooth’s enamel.

Cellulose Gum

Derived from the cell walls of plants, we use Cellulose Gum as a thickening agent to keep the paste creamy and stop ingredients from separating. This ingredient is regularly used as a food additive and is considered safe for consumption.

Glycerin

Our food-grade Glycerin is derived from vegetable oils and is non-GMO. It works as a natural preservative to prevent the ingredients from separating, while also enhancing the natural mint oil flavour.

Hydrated Silica

This natural material is used to remove surface stains and whiten and polish teeth. Gem uses only the highest quality silica with ultra-fine microscopic particles, designed to safely clean and polish the enamel on your teeth (some imported silica has large abrasive particles that can scratch or damage the enamel).

Hydroxyapatite (Omyadent)

Hydroxyapatite is the main mineral our teeth and bones are made of and is a proven, safe alternative to fluoride. It works by repairing and re-mineralising tooth enamel with calcium and phosphorus, which helps teeth to become harder and stronger, while also whitening and smoothening the tooth’s surface.

Maltodextrin

Naturally derived and made from corn, rice, potato starch or wheat, Maltodextrin is a commonly used, easily-digestible food additive. It can be used to improve the mouth feel of a product, but in our case, it’s simply a minor by-product of the probiotic and only occurs in trace amounts.

Mint Oil & Menthol

Our powerful peppermint flavour comes from pure peppermint (mentha piperta oil) and mint (mentha arvensis leaf oil) essential oils (both derived from natural mint leaves) and a naturally sourced menthol. Combined, these ingredients provide a clean aftertaste and long-lasting fresh breath.

Oral Probiotic (Lactobacillus Salivarius)

This probiotic is an anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory agent. When we nuke our mouths with chemicals, the balance of good and bad bacteria is thrown off. And bad bacteria is a problem; it can destroy the tooth’s enamel, as well as the dentin layer underneath. The inclusion of Lactobacillus Salivarius prevents the build-up of bad bacteria, encourages the good bacteria and helps to establish a healthy oral microbiome.

Silica

This stuff gives Gem’s toothpaste its luxuriously thick consistency. The paste comes out of your mint-green tube with ease, making teeth-brushing effortless, mess-free, and all the more indulgent.

Sodium Menthyl Cocoyl Taurate

This is a sulphate-free, naturally derived alternative to Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS). Derived from coconut, this mild surfactant has very low irritation potential (unlike SLS) and has strong cleansing properties.

Sodium Monofluorophosphate

A powerhouse at preventing tooth decay. Fluoride found in Sodium Monofluorophosphate (SM) helps reduce demineralisation of tooth enamel. This means your teeth stay stronger and for longer. SM also remineralises any weak spots, strengthening precious enamel for better pearly whites.

Sorbitol

The sweetener Sorbitol is naturally derived from corn. Not only does it not cause cavities, it can help reduce dental plaque and acids, while also fighting harmful pathogens found in saliva. As a humectant, it also helps to moisten the mouth.

Stevia Rebaudiana Leaf/Stem Extract

We use this sugar substitute extracted from the leaves of the Stevia Rebaudiana plant, and native to Brazil and Paraguay. As stevia is sugar-free, it does not fuel the plaque bacteria that causes tooth decay. It also helps to remove the bitter notes.

Water

We use pure water to blend ingredients and give our products the right consistency.

Xylitol

This corn-derived sweetener has anti-bacterial properties, is non-cariogenic and doesn’t ferment in your mouth to feed tooth decaying bacteria. Importantly, this has the effect of reducing plaque formation and inhibiting enamel demineralisation. By starving the cavity-causing bacteria, acidity inside your mouth is neutralised and saliva flow increases to healthy levels.
