Frequently Asked Questions
+ What is dental gel?
Dental gel is designed to provide relief from feelings of discomfort or irritation in your mouth. It should be applied to your mouth’s soft tissues (that is, to the lips, gums, palate, and the insides of your cheeks)
+ How do you apply oral gel?
We recommend you use our oral gel twice daily, after flossing and brushing, as part of your oral care routine. Squeeze a pea-sized amount of the oral gel onto a clean fingertip, cotton swab, or soft toothbrush, then apply the gel to the outside and inside of your upper and lower gums. Allow the gel to dissolve, and spit out any excess. Do not swallow the gel, and avoid eating or drinking for the next 30 minutes. The gel can also be applied to your tongue or the roof of your mouth.
What are the key ingredients in your dental gel?
Our patented blend of the antioxidants Phloretin and Ferulic Acid works in harmony with your mouth's natural defenses to help calm and revitalize your gums and mouth's soft tissue. You'll also get the benefit of Xylitol, a naturally-derived ingredient that goes straight to the source of decay. It works by actively blocking and "starving" the harmful bacteria most responsible for forming cavities.
When should I apply the dental gel, before or after brushing and rinsing?
Apply a pea-sized amount to both your upper and lower gums in the morning and evening after brushing your teeth and rinsing. For best results, do not eat or drink for 30 minutes after applying AO ProVantage Gel.
Is this safe for use after dental implants, whitening, or orthodontic procedures?
Our dental gel for gums is specifically designed to soothe soft tissue in the oral cavity. The inclusion of powerful antioxidants and soothing essential oils (like Sage and Clove Flower) makes it beneficial for use when gums or soft tissues are irritated. This dental gel can also be used on the tongue for an overall soothing effect.
Is there a difference between AO ProVantage Gel and On-the-Go AO ProVantage Dental Gel?
The formula is the same, the only difference is the size. AO Provantage Gel is 30 ml, and the On-the-Go option is 15 ml.
What does your gum gel do?
The AO ProVantage Dental Gel is a highly concentrated, aqueous gel designed specifically to be applied directly to the soft tissues of your mouth (gums, lips, palate, and cheeks). Its primary purpose is to provide soothing comfort and a healthier oral environment. It supports your mouth's natural defenses by delivering a patented blend of antioxidants, essential oils, and Xylitol. Think relief from mouth burn, dry mouth, irritation from braces, dental implant irritation, post-surgery and post-teeth whitening sensitivity, and more.
Does oral gel help with inflamed gums?
Yes, absolutely. This is one of the main reasons the AO ProVantage Dental Gel is highly recommended by periodontists. The "AO" stands for Antioxidant, and these topically applied antioxidants are known for their anti-inflammatory effects. When applied to the gums, the cool and minty gel instantly soothes irritation, reduces the appearance of inflammation, and promotes the healing of damaged oral tissues.
