USER GUIDE OC (Essential) Kit
Floss
Follow flossing with brushing if you have been doing it previously. If you have not previously flossed, please check with your dentist before starting. Wrap the ends of an 18-24 inch piece of floss around your fingers leaving about 2 inches between. Gently glide the floss between your teeth to the gum line. Floss both sides of each tooth thoroughly with a clean section of floss.
Toothpaste / Toothbrush
Place a pea size amount of toothpaste on the toothbrush and brush all surfaces of your teeth in a small circular motion for a minimum of 2 minutes. Brush after meals and before bed daily. No need to rinse your mouth. Rinse your toothbrush with running water for 30 seconds, dry with a paper towel and stand it upright until next use. Review with your doctor or dentist about how often to replace your toothbrush.
Remineralization Gel
End your oral care routine with the remineralization gel. Twist end to dispense product and paint a thin layer of the gel on the teeth using the pen applicator before bed time. Leave on for 10 minutes and then rinse your mouth with water and spit. Do not use the remineralization gel more than once every 24 hours. Do not use more than 14 days consecutively in a month. Take a 7 day break after 14 days of use.
Soothing Mouth Rinse
Rinse your mouth at least 4 times a day after meals and before bed. Do this more often if your mouth is sore, you have thick mucus, or per your cancer care team instructions. Mix the contents of one sachet in 32 ounces ( 4 cups ) water in a covered bottle and shake. Swish around in your mouth, gargle and then spit out. Leave the remaining mix in the covered container and keep at room temperature. Use it throughout the day as needed. Throw away the remainder at the end of each day. Make a fresh batch each day.
Lip Balm
Apply over lips throughout the day as many times as needed. The lip balm is created for external use only.
Dry Mouth Candies
Use the Xylitol candy 3 to 5 times a day, immediately after meals or snacks for maximum benefits. Ideal serving size is 2 pieces. The candies are not suggested for children under the age of 5 as it can be a choking hazard.
