Question 1

How do you use it?

Accepted Answer

Hi Patty,

Further to our last response to you, here are the directions from the product page:

"Administer twice daily. Shake vigorously before use. Amount per application (approximate):

Under 10lbs.................3-4 drops
11lbs - 40lbs................5-7 drops
Over 40lbs....................8-10 drops

Using dropper, apply directly onto gums. Use only enough to sufficiently coat the gums.

Some people find it useful to apply gently and spread with a fingertip or cotton swab (Q-Tip) if the gums are not excessively inflamed. Be mindful not to cause added discomfort or pain during application as infected or inflamed gums can be extremely sensitive.

Avoid touching the dropper to infected areas to prevent contamination of the product."

As mentioned, it is to be applied directly to the impacted area. Giving it in food or one a treat for digestion would be similar to humans eating toothpaste - not very effective!

Thank you,
Customer Service

Question 2

What color is this supposed to be?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your question the liquid should be a light brown/Yellow color. At times there may be some black precipitate that forms on the inside of the dropper or top of the bottle. The precipitate is absolutely normal and is a result of the concentration of herbs in the liquid.

Question 3

What are the ingredients? The picture only shows the front of the bottle and I want to see what is in it as I want to compare it with other products.

Hi there,

The ingredients in the Healthy Gums are:

1. Calendula flower (Calendula officinalis)*:  The pretty, yellow-orange petals of Calendula flowers have shown antibacterial and antiviral activity. Use to support normal healing of the skin, Calendula also soothes inflamed skin and has been used for gingivitis.
2. Marshmallow root (Althea officinale)*:  The tissues of the mouth and gums are covered in a delicate layer of skin. Extracted Marshmallow root soothes this soft skin when inflamed or red and hastens the healing of those tissues. Marshmallow is high in mucilage content, a constituent that protects mucous membranes from irritation.
3. Goldenseal root (Hydrastis canadensis)*:  Goldenseal is strongly indicated to help maintain a healthy immune function throughout the body. It has been shown to have a direct affect on bacteria and viruses. and by many herbalists, is considered an essential anti-microbial in their dispensary for stubborn immune conditions. We use only cultivated Goldenseal, so as not to threaten this endangered species in the wild.
4. Bayberry root bark (Myrica cerifera)**:  Bayberry is one of the best herbal astringents, meaning that it tones and tightens smooth membranes. It works particularly well for treating the skin throughout the alimentary canal (which includes the tissues inside the mouth and the gums) and has a mild antibacterial property.
5. Chinese Skullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis)†:  Baikal Skullcap, high in flavonoids, has shown antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. Oral preparations are used to reduce inflammation of the membranes inside the mouth.
6. Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra)*:  Also called "sweet root" and the "universal herb", Licorice demonstrates an antibacterial and antiviral affect. Licorice also has a mildly demulcent quality and a natural sweetness.
7. Prickly Ash bark (Zanthoxylum americanum)**:  Used in Native American medicine, the bark of this tree has been called "toothache bark" and possesses astringent qualities.
8. Coptis root (Coptis chinensis)†:  An herb high in berberine, Coptis is considered to have similar properties to Goldenseal. It has particular application with ulceration of mucous membranes.
9. Myrrh gum (Commiphora mol-mol)†:  One of the most well used herbal antiseptics, Myrrh has bacteriostatic and astringent qualities that make it ideal for oral health.
10. Coenzyme Q10.....................................30mg
11. Ascorbyl palmitate (Vitamin C)...........10mg
12. Zinc oxide.............................................0.75mg

Question 4

Will healthy gums help a dogs loose front teeth caused from periodontal?

Accepted Answer

Hello there,

Healthy Gums is designed to help with reducing inflammation on the gums, reducing bacterial build up and improving the odor of their breath. If your dog's loose teeth is causing some irritation, then this may be helpful to provide some relief for that. However, it won't impact the loose teeth otherwise. I hope this answers your question!
