THE TRUTH NO ONE TALKS ABOUT

You started life without harmful oral bacteria.

Babies are born without harmful oral bacteria. That means cavities and gum disease aren't even possible. Then the world got involved and you were passed a bacterial community you've been living with ever since.

THE TRUTH NO ONE TALKS ABOUT

You started life without harmful oral bacteria.

Babies are born without harmful oral bacteria. That means cavities and gum disease aren't even possible. Then the world got involved and you were passed a bacterial community you've been living with ever since.

THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM

Your bacterial profile was inherited, not chosen. Every moment of close contact was passing bacteria to you, the good and the bad. Until now, you'd have them for life.


0-6 MONTHS

6-12 MONTHS

1-5 YEARS

YEARS 5+

Parents & Family

The primary source of bacterial transmission is the mother, but early exposure from family occurs through kissing, shared utensils and food.

Food, Pets & Environment

Solid food introduction creates the first major environmental exposure. Pets, soil, and shared household surfaces start contributing meaningfully.

Friends & Connections

Cavity-causing bacteria transmission peaks during this window through daycare, shared toys, shared food, and close-contact play with other children.

Lifestyle Factors

Bacterial profile is relatively stable. Disruptions can shift it temporarily but the foundational bacterial community tends to persist into adulthood.

THE ROOT CAUSE OF ISSUES

The two bacteria working against your smile.

S. mutans

Cavity-causing bacteria

Causes cavities & decay

May require fillings or root canals

Creates sticky plaque

Builds up and hardens on tooth

Produces enamel-destroying acid

Sensitivity and white spots

P. gingivalis

Periodontal disease-causing bacteria

Causes gum disease

Breaks down gum tissue

Leads to bone density loss

Can lead to tooth loss

Main source of bad breath

Not even mouthwash can fix

BIOFUSE™

Actiavted Nanolipid Technology

Traditional oral care doesn't address the root cause—BioFuse™ does.

Harmful bacteria ELIMINATED

BioFuse™ targets and eliminates the two most common harmful bacteria that cause cavities and periodontal disease by physically disrupting their cell walls.

GOOD BACTERIA PRESERVED

Beneficial bacterial strains that your mouth needs are left untouched, shifting your oral microbiome to a healthier balance.

GOOD BACTERIA PRESERVED

The mechanism of BioFuse™ is able to only target the harmful bacteria so beneficial bacteria you need are left to thrive.

Methodology

Lab Assay

Multi-well plates containing dilute bacterial cultures in saliva

Protocol

Wells were treated with buffer solution, placebo toothpaste, and toothpaste with BioFuse™ for 10 minutes and then measured for live bacteria

Objective

Investigate the efficacy of BioFuse™ in reducing specific cavity and periodontal disease bacteria in saliva

We are committed to conducting rigorous scientific research and sharing it with our customers and are working to publish our research with the help of our trust technical science and testing partners.

Dr. Winter's Story

Near-complete elimination of harmful S. mutans in saliva after 8 days of brushing.

Dr. Winters tested his own saliva over 8 days while brushing with BioFuse™ Oil Matrix and saw near-complete elimination of S. mutans.

Methodology

Participants

Dr. Ben Winters provided his own saliva samples for culture plating over an 8 day period

Protocol

Saliva samples were taken over 8 days whilte brushing with BioFuse™ toothpaste. Samples were plated on Mutans-sanguis agar + Potassium Tellurite and Bacitracin† to monitor growth of S. mutans.

Objective

Investigate the efficacy of BioFuse™ in selectively eliminating cavity-causing bacteria in a saliva sample.

We are committed to conducting rigorous scientific research and sharing it with our customers. We are actively working with our technical team of scientists to publish our research.

Clinical Trial

Clinical Trial

Clinical trial participants brushing with BioFuse™ Oil Matrix had ~50% less bad bacteria after 14 days.

Testing On Good Bacteria

Testing On Good Bacteria

BioFuse™ Oil Matrix shows selective elimination of bad bacteria, while letting the good guys recover.

Saliva samples collected before and after brushing with BioFuse™ Oil Matrix vs. standard toothpaste showed selective elimination of only bad bacteria.

Methodology

Lab Assay

96-well plates of saliva samples supplemented with dilute bacterial culture

Protocol

Saliva samples from before and after brushing with BioFuse™ toothpaste were plated and treated with diluted bacteria culture

Objective

Investigate the efficacy of Mitopure on mitophagy in otherwise healthy middle-aged, overweight and inactive individuals

We are committed to conducting rigorous scientific research and sharing it with our customers, which is why we publish our work in open access, peer-reviewed journals. Read the full results of the study in Cell Reports Medicine.
