Icelandic Lichens: tradition and innovation
During an expedition to the Arctic, scientists noticed that local people
had extraordinarily white and healthy teeth, thanks to the custom of
rubbing their teeth with a local lichen. Lichens, which are plant
organisms that draw energy from the sun and live in extreme conditions,
produce natural antibacterial substances to protect themselves. These
substances act against bacteria that are harmful to teeth, leaving the
beneficial oral flora intact.
Following this discovery, BlanX®
created a uniquely effective and protective toothpaste, based on
scientific research and natural tradition. Thanks to 100% natural
Icelandic lichen extract, BlanX® reduces the formation of plaque and
helps prevent stains, guaranteeing a whiter and healthier smile.
There
is no white standard for teeth. Every person has a unique enamel
colour, which can vary from tooth to tooth and be affected by external
or metabolic factors.
BlanX® toothpaste is formulated for
natural, safe whitening that does not damage the enamel. This natural
whitening effect is the result of a combination of active ingredients:
- Icelandic Lichen: with bacteriostatic, anti-plaque and anti-stain properties, and an emollient effect that soothes gums.
- Soft Silicas: a special type of silica with a particle size that enables thorough non-abrasive cleaning.
- Fluoride salts: reinforce the enamel, making it brighter and more compact.
Antibacterial effect
Bacteria produce adhesive substances that form dental plaque. The
exclusive BlanX® formula contains active ingredients with high
bacteriostatic properties that drastically reduce bacteria proliferation
and stop them adhering to the enamel.
BlanX®’s anti-plaque
action, that has been demonstrated in numerous in vitro tests, is
particularly effective against the bacteria that cause cavities, thereby
reducing the risk of this happening.

Non-abrasive
For a whitening toothpaste to be used every day, it must have a high
tolerability level and respect the health of teeth and gums.
BlanX®
toothpastes are formulated with a balanced blend of high-quality
silicas with a specific particle size to offer superb cleaning with the
utmost respect for tooth enamel and a low RDA rating.
