Patients undergoing chemotherapy can find relief with the Natural Dentist

4/2/2013

MADISON, N.J. — The Natural Dentist has launched “Rinse for Relief,” an online resource for proper oral care aimed at cancer patients suffering from mouth sores and other oral ailments, the fourth most common side effect of chemotherapy treatments. The initiative included the unveiling of RinseForRelief.com and a giveaway of one free sample of Healthy Gums Mouth Rinse, an all-natural product that works as an effective daily cleanser and helps prevent and reduce gum bleeding and inflammation.


It is estimated that approximately 650,000 Americans undergo chemotherapy each year. Mouth sores and oral infections are common complications that can compromise health, can affect the ability to eat and to talk, and can lead to serious infections that affect the ability to complete a cancer treatment plan. The Natural Dentist created RinseForRelief.com as an educational reference for patients that provides information about their oral care and offer a potential treatment for the oral side effects they may be experiencing.


Dentists have come to recognize the benefits of The Natural Dentist Healthy Gums Mouth Rinse as an effective, over-the-counter solution for their patients undergoing chemotherapy. “All my patients use the Natural Dentist Healthy Gums Mouth Rinse and I have seen it be effective reducing and preventing mouth sores and bleeding gums associated with chemotherapy and radiation,” said Dr. Susan Calderbank, a practicing dentist and expert on oral care for cancer patients at the University of Pittsburgh.


The Natural Dentist Healthy Gums Mouth Rinse is all-natural and clinically proven to kill germs and reduce gingivitis and bleeding gums, without any alcohol or other harmful ingredients. The mouth rinse was formulated by a dentist and contains a therapeutic concentration of aloe vera, which is known to soothe irritation and reduce mouth inflammation. Containing only natural, healing ingredients, Healthy Gums Mouth Rinse can be used as often as desired by chemotherapy patients to keep their mouths free of infections and mouth sores.


The “Rinse for Relief” initiative was inspired by the personal experiences of two of the company’s founders who had close family members go through chemotherapy treatments. “As the mother of a daughter who suffered from mouth sores during her chemotherapy treatments, all I wanted to do was provide her with relief and comfort. As the maker of a product that actually brought her relief, I want to share this product with every mother, caregiver and patient in the hopes that it will help them as well,” said Kelly Kaplan, President and COO of Revive Personal Products Company, makers of The Natural Dentist line of all-natural oral care products.


“My sister is a cancer survivor and found that the Natural Dentist mouth rinse was the only treatment for mouth problems that satisfied her needs,” said Bill Stern, the founder of the Natural Dentist brand.
