Dharma Research Ionite-H Home Care Prescription Fluoride Toothpaste, 1.1% NaF, Spearmint is used for prescription-strength caries prevention, remineralization support, and dentinal hypersensitivity relief in high-caries-risk patients who require elevated fluoride concentration above what over-the-counter fluoride toothpaste provides, including patients with xerostomia from medication or systemic disease, patients undergoing or recovering from head and neck radiation therapy, patients with bulimia-related acid erosion, patients on chemotherapy, patients with intolerance to acidic fluoride gel formulations, and patients experiencing dentinal hypersensitivity before or after professional whitening procedures where a neutral pH prescription fluoride toothpaste is the correctly tolerated format. Distinguished from standard 5000 ppm sodium fluoride toothpastes by its exclusive multi-active formula combining 1.1% neutral sodium fluoride with 5% potassium nitrate, tri-calcium phosphate, Xylitol, and Vitamin E in a single dentifrice, Ionite-H delivers simultaneous fluoride caries protection, potassium nitrate nerve desensitization, TCP-enhanced remineralization, Xylitol antibacterial activity, and Vitamin E antioxidant and desensitizing benefit in a single twice-daily brushing application.

Dentists and hygienists prescribing prescription fluoride toothpaste for high-caries-risk patients with concurrent sensitivity, restoration sensitivity concerns, or acid-related enamel challenges find Dharma Research Ionite-H Spearmint the most ingredient-complete prescription fluoride dentifrice for their comprehensive preventive home care protocol. ? Each unit is a single 4.3 oz tube of Ionite-H Home Care Prescription Fluoride Toothpaste in spearmint flavor, providing a standard prescription fluoride toothpaste tube size for patient home use across approximately one month of twice-daily use at the recommended amount per brushing. Thixotropic paste consistency can be applied directly onto a toothbrush for standard twice-daily brushing or dispensed into a custom fluoride tray for extended contact time fluoride tray treatment, giving the clinician flexibility in the home care delivery method based on the patient's compliance capability and fluoride exposure requirements. Non-abrasive formulation is gentle on porcelain veneers, composite restorations, crowns, and bridges, making Ionite-H safe for use across patients with extensive aesthetic and restorative dental work where abrasive toothpastes would scratch and dull restoration surfaces over time. ? Dharma Research Ionite-H works through the combined action of its five active components.

Sodium fluoride at 1.1% concentration delivers 5000 ppm fluoride ion for remineralization of incipient carious lesions and enhanced acid resistance of enamel and exposed root surfaces. Potassium nitrate at 5% penetrates dentinal tubules and depolarizes intra-tubular nerve fibers to reduce the hypersensitivity response to thermal, osmotic, and tactile stimuli. Tri-calcium phosphate provides bioavailable calcium and phosphate ions that support fluoride-assisted remineralization at the tooth surface, enhancing the mineral deposition that fluoride alone initiates.

Xylitol provides caries-preventive benefit through specific inhibition of Streptococcus mutans group bacteria and is safe for diabetics and patients with hyperglycemia. Vitamin E as the only dentifrice on the market to include this ingredient provides antioxidant protection at the mucosal tissue surface and serves as a natural complementary desensitizing agent alongside the potassium nitrate sensitivity mechanism. Neutral pH formulation avoids the acidic pH of stannous fluoride and acidulated phosphate fluoride gels that cause mucosal irritation and enamel surface softening in sensitive patients. ? Hygienists managing xerostomia patients at recall appointments find Ionite-H's neutral sodium fluoride format avoids the acid sensitivity that APF fluoride gel causes in dry-mouth patients whose reduced salivary buffering cannot neutralize acidic fluoride formulations.

Dentists managing post-whitening sensitivity prescribe Ionite-H for its combined potassium nitrate and Vitamin E desensitizing activity that addresses whitening-related sensitivity while simultaneously delivering the fluoride remineralization support that whitened enamel benefits from during the post-whitening period. ? Dharma Research Ionite-H Home Care Prescription Fluoride Toothpaste, 1.1% NaF, Spearmint gives dental practices a prescription-strength neutral sodium fluoride dentifrice with the most comprehensive active ingredient profile in the prescription fluoride toothpaste category, combining 5000 ppm NaF, 5% potassium nitrate, TCP, Xylitol, and Vitamin E in a gluten-free, alcohol-free, dye-free, non-abrasive spearmint paste suited for twice-daily brushing or fluoride tray application across high-risk caries, sensitivity, and acid-challenged patient populations. Prescription only. Must be purchased by a licensed dental professional.
