PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

LOZI-FLUR delivers a safe, 2.21 mg dose of NaF (each lozenge yields 1.0 mg fluoride ion) in a pleasant-tasting convenient to use, slow dissolving package (8-12 minutes in the mouth) for topical effect. After dissolution, fluoride ion can be expected to remain in the mouth for 30 minutes or more. As LOZI-FLUR and saliva are swallowed, the systemic benefits take over.

Patient compliance has always been difficult. Existing gels, mouthwashes and other out-of-office treatments are messy, require a sink, clumsy speech-altering trays, or need to be brushed on the teeth in addition to regular brushing.

LOZI-FLUR eliminates the need for trays, sinks and additional brushing. As with all supplemental fluoride treatments, LOZI-FLUR can help reduce the incidence of coronal and root caries in your at-risk patients.
