Livionex - Dental Gel

A few years ago, when my daughter Chiara was 1 or so, I wanted to find a great toothpaste without Fluoride.  There are some people who think Fluoride is a super toxic chemical and some (like the average Dentist) who think it's harmless.  As usual the answer is somewhere in the middle.  The Harvard study shows that definitely in developing brains (i.e. children) Fluoride can have Neurotoxic effects (IQ, learning, etc.).  Clearly it's not something that happens overnight, it's an accumulative affect over time, these are the hardest ones to prove.  In adults, these affects were well known but those were based on a single very high dose (I don't recall seeing repeated low dose research on adults but I'm playing it safe :-)

Anyway, I decide to focus on toothpastes that have no Fluoride, while the kids still have their baby teeth, I don't think having the best toothpaste is a top priority (as it's not cheap, I'll get to that later -- I think for them just brushing and rinsing is already pretty good) so we use this one, Chiara likes the flavor and it has no bad ingredients!

I still needed to find a top notch toothpaste for us to use and of course the kids once they are past the baby teeth stage.  There's many Organic ones with no bad ingredients but my research showed quite a few people reported more cavities and other issues after using them awhile and visiting the Dentist. So after much searching, I was stoked to find a Dental Gel called Livionex, started by a Silicon Valley startup that ignores all the current fads etc. and just focused on solving what's really the core problem, bacteria getting a foothold and building colonies on your teeth, thru years of research and some brilliant chemistry they solved the problem and it has been tested by many researchers.  This Dental Gel works better than Colgate Total which is the leading "popular" toothpaste.

Here's a great article from a well respected Dentist in the Huffington Post, describes the problem most people are facing today and the solution (i.e. Livionex!)...very informative, well written.  Now, one drawback is the price and the fact I have to order from the US, so I'm hoping as the word gets out there and more people buy it, they can lower the price and sell in Canada too!  Oh and we've used it for 2 years or so now, our dental appointments have been quicker than ever since, it def works!
