Promised impact on the teeth and how it really is
For the purpose of advertising, distributors of Amway products are making their own adjustments to the official composition and description of the Glister action to increase sales of toothpaste.
They claim that:
- The paste consists of minerals, vitamins, biochemical constituents, capable of regenerating the dentin .

Not everything is so smooth - and who would doubt it?
Experienced dentists and independent experts, commenting on the properties and actions of Glister paste described by the consultants of the product, are unanimous in their opinion and state:
- The composition and operation of this tool are common to and do not differ from anything else. Substances that make up the most simple, with a low degree of activity.
- The motion molecule is a fiction and in nature there is no , not to mention its 36-hour protection of the teeth. Seal small holes in the teeth can not be a single paste. There are tools that can saturate the tooth enamel with calcium. At the same time, they can not eliminate defects and irregularities. But Glister paste even does not apply to such means.
- The frank can not be true for the statement that there is no abrasiveness and zero erasure .The abrasivity of the medium is above average, with an RDA coefficient of 110.
- Chemicals are part of the paste. When used outdoors, they do not cause harm to health, but do not use it inside. No additive to food, it is not and the activity of the brain, as well as the state of memory is not exactly affected.
- The advertising move should consider the statement of high abrasiveness of as a cause of the occurrence of cancer diseases and loss of vision. The goal here is to detract from the attention of customers from toothpastes from other manufacturers with similar effects.
The DDA ratio for paste Glister 110 is quite a lot
The word to the expert
Review of a dentist who carefully studied the toothpaste of Amway Glister and its properties.
Glister Toothpaste refers to a series of oral care products manufactured by AMWAY( USA).The role of the abrasive substance in its composition is performed by aluminum silicate.
Removal of plaque occurs by mechanical polishing, at the same time it whitens teeth. To argue that this sample paste is superior to its qualities, similar products from other manufacturers have no basis.
However, the constant use of pastes, which include abrasives, is harmful to the enamel of the teeth. They reduce its protective properties. In the future, this may result in increased sensitivity of the teeth( hyperesthesia).Without harmful consequences, you can use such funds not more often 1-2 times a week.

Think for yourself, decide for yourself. ..
As an output, you can generalize all of the above. Toothpaste company Amway Glister, of course, has some merits, although slightly exaggerated in the process of promotional activities.
