What do the ingredients in the powder do during brushing?

The powder’s cleaning action comes from four key components, each contributing a specific benefit during brushing:

• Calcium carbonate – acts as a mild polishing agent, helping to smooth the tooth surface and lift plaque without being overly abrasive.
• Sodium bicarbonate – assists in neutralizing acids and reducing unpleasant mouth odours, leaving a fresher feeling after brushing.
• Peppermint oil – provides a cool, clean sensation that many users associate with thorough cleaning.
• Citrus peel oil – adds a light fruity note that balances the stronger mint taste, making the overall experience more pleasant.

These ingredients work together in the dry powder format, relying on mechanical action rather than chemical agents. The mineral powders physically dislodge plaque, while the oils contribute aroma and a sensory cue of cleanliness. Because there is no water base, the formula stays simple and free from additional thickening agents, which can be appealing for those who prefer a minimalist oral‑care product.
