Show Your Teeth Some Valentine's Day Love With BasicBites® Chocolate Flavored Soft Chews
Delicious Chewy Supports Healthy Enamel and Nourishes Good Bacteria on Tooth Surfaces that Helps Maintain a Normal Oral pH
BasicBites Contain Breakthrough Oral Care Technology Developed at Stony Brook University School of Dental Medicine
ROSLYN HEIGHTS, N.Y., Feb. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- This Valentine's Day, Americans will spend over $1.5 billion on candy to express their love. Yet, as our hearts are warmed and our sweet tooth is satisfied, these sugary confections can disrupt our oral equilibrium. New BasicBites® Soft Chews are here to help keep your oral pH in a healthy balance. BasicBites are a seriously delicious oral care breakthrough to be enjoyed year round by children and adults.
Ortek and researchers at Stony Brook University School of Dental Medicine developed BasicBites. These delicious sugar free chocolate flavored chews are designed to mimic saliva's profound and natural benefits. BasicBites contain a patented blend of vital nutrients that nourish the good bacteria on tooth surfaces. These healthy bacteria generate base, or alkali, which helps keep teeth in their existing healthy acid-base (pH) zone. BasicBites also bathe the teeth with calcium, which helps maintain healthy tooth structure.
Two BasicBites a day, one after breakfast and one at bedtime, can be enjoyed by children over six years of age and adults. Recommended by dental professionals, BasicBites are essential for the millions of individuals with diets high in sugars and those who have dry mouth. As an added benefit, BasicBites are an excellent source of calcium.
"The researchers at Stony Brook University solved the puzzle of the protective and natural benefits of saliva," said Mitchell Goldberg, President of Ortek. "The technology in BasicBites works behind the scenes to support healthy teeth. This science is now recognized as one of the biggest breakthroughs in oral care."
BasicBites, 20 calories per piece, are available exclusively from Ortek at its website, www.basicbites.com. Each container of BasicBites is priced at $39.95, and contains 120 soft chews, a two-month supply.
BasicBites can also be seen on our Facebook page, www.facebook.com/BasicBitesByOrtek.
About BasicBites®:
BasicBites are delicious chocolate flavored soft chews. BasicBites contain the saliva-mimicking AlkaGen Technology®, which was developed at Stony Brook University School of Dental Medicine. This super saliva technology consists of two main ingredients – arginine bicarbonate and calcium carbonate. Arginine is a common amino acid found in saliva and is naturally present in many foods. It was discovered that certain healthy bacteria found on tooth surfaces use arginine to generate sustained base or alkali production. This helps keep teeth in the existing normal pH range. Calcium, which is also found in saliva, is available to coat and support healthy tooth structure. The bicarbonate and carbonate ingredients provide additional buffering and support arginine and calcium. Sugar free BasicBites are 20 calories each, contain no artificial sweeteners, are gluten and dairy free, and as an added benefit, they are an excellent source of calcium. Soybean oil is used as a processing aid. Visit www.basicbites.com for additional information.
