Get ready to experience the next level in oral freshness and health – no negative side effects, dry mouth, or burning.

Are you tired of bulky mouthwash bottles, harsh chemicals, and the inconvenience of maintaining a fresh breath on the go? The world of oral hygiene is evolving, and we’re thrilled to announce a revolutionary new product that’s changing the game: Fresmy Mouthwash Tablets! Get ready to experience the next level in oral freshness and health – no negative side effects, dry mouth, or burning.

 

 

At Fresmy, we believe that oral care should be simple, natural, and effective. Our new mouthwash tablets are with natural ingredients, ensuring a non-toxic, alcohol-free, and fluoride-free experience that not only refreshes but actively enhances your oral health.

 

Why Fresmy Mouthwash Tablets are your oral health game-changer

Fresmy Mouthwash Tablets are a compact, powerful, and delightfully minty solution that brings convenience and targeted benefits to your daily routine.

Forget everything you thought you knew about traditional mouthwash. Fresmy Mouthwash Tablets are a compact, powerful, and delightfully minty solution that brings convenience and targeted benefits to your daily routine.

• Convenience Meets Innovation: Imagine carrying your mouthwash with you, effortlessly popping a tablet whenever you need a refresh – be it after a meal at work, before a meeting, or simply when you’re far from home. Fresmy tablets are travel-friendly and practical, making them the ultimate solution for on-the-go oral care. No leaky caps, no bulky bottles!
• Naturally Effective for a Healthier Smile: Fresmy Mouthwash Tablets are not just about fresh breath; they’re about building a stronger, healthier foundation for your teeth and gums. We’ve carefully selected best ingredients to deliver a comprehensive oral health solution:
• • Hydroxyapatite (HAp): Your Enamel’s Natural Ally. At the heart of Fresmy lies Hydroxyapatite (HAp), a naturally occurring mineral that forms the primary component of your tooth enamel and bone. This incredible ingredient actively works to remineralize tooth enamel, helping to repair microscopic lesions and restore the tooth’s surface. What does this mean for you? Reduced tooth sensitivity and stronger teeth that are more resistant to decay. It’s like giving your teeth a natural shield, rebuilding them from within.
  • Xylitol: The Sweet Defender Against Cavities. Another powerhouse ingredient in Fresmy is Xylitol (82%). More than just a natural sweetener, xylitol plays a crucial role in preventing cavities and significantly improving overall oral health. How does it work? Xylitol effectively reduces the growth of harmful bacteria in the mouth that cause plaque and cavities. It also helps to balance pH levels, creating an environment where beneficial bacteria can thrive while harmful ones struggle to survive. The result? Not only does xylitol contribute to incredibly fresh breath, but it actively supports stronger, healthier teeth.
  • Beyond the Basics: Postbiotics and Vitamin B12 for Optimal Oral Health. Fresmy goes a step further by including postbiotics, which work to support oral health by creating a balanced oral microbiome. We’ve also added Cyanocobalamin (Vitamin B12), an essential vitamin for healthy gums and overall mouth wellness.

 

 

What you won’t find in Fresmy Mouthwash Tablets (and why that’s a good thing!):

Our dedication to natural and safe oral care means we’ve consciously excluded ingredients that can be detrimental to your health or simply unnecessary. Fresmy Mouthwash Tablets are:

• Alcohol-free
• Free from artificial colors
• Fluoride-free
• Non-toxic
• Gluten-free
• Vegan

Good to know: The mouthwash tablets are safe if accidentally swallowed. This makes them perfectly suitable for children who can already chew and rinse.

 

How to use mouthwash tablets that truly refresh

Using Fresmy Mouthwash Tablets is incredibly simple and extremely convenient:

1. Chew the tablet:Gently chew one tablet until it starts to dissolve.
2. Take a sip of water or use your saliva:Once the tablet begins to break down, take a small sip of water or simply use your saliva to activate the mouthwash.
3. Swirl for 30 seconds and spit out the excess:Swish the solution vigorously around your mouth for at least 30 seconds to ensure all active ingredients reach every corner, then simply spit out the excess.

Tip! Fresmy Mouthwash Tablets are perfect for anytime use – after meals, before a meeting, or whenever you need a quick, cool refresh. They are the ultimate solution for both home and on-the-go oral care.

 

Allow the active ingredients to work!

After using the mouthwash tablets, you shouldn’t eat or drink for at least 30 minutes so that the active ingredients can take effect and all beneficial components can do their job.

 

 

Step into a fresher, healthier future with Fresmy!

Fresmy Mouthwash Tablets are more than just a new product; they’re a commitment to a healthier, more convenient, and natural approach to oral hygiene. Embrace the power of natural oral care, enjoy the long-lasting minty fresh breath, and build stronger, healthier teeth with every use.

Sweet peach-flavored toothpaste tablets for kids

 These sweet peach-flavored tablets contain a reduced amount of menthol, making them more pleasant for young children compared

Fresmy has developed and launched natural toothpaste tablets specifically designed for children. These sweet peach-flavored tablets contain a reduced amount of menthol, making them more pleasant for young children compared to our other stronger flavors. This innovation is a relief for parents, as there’s no longer a need to worry about half the toothpaste tube being squeezed into the sink or children eating toothpaste. Our significant advantage over traditional toothpaste is that all ingredients are natural, and accidental swallowing of a tablet does not harm a child’s health. While we don’t recommend consuming the tablets as candy, they are crunchy and taste like treats.

 

Natural ingredients and effective protection for teeth

Our toothpaste tablets contain xylitol and hydroxyapatite—a natural alternative to fluoride—that strengthens and restores tooth enamel, reduces sensitivity, and ensures gentle yet effective oral care for growing teeth. Additionally, we’ve enriched the tablets with probiotics to help maintain a balanced pH level in the mouth and support beneficial bacteria.

 

An environmentally friendly alternative to traditional toothpaste

Using toothpaste tablets is an excellent way to teach children how products and their production can be environmentally friendly. Traditional toothpaste contains about 40% water, which is essentially a waste of natural resources. Our tablets are water-free, with everything necessary contained in a small tablet. Parents no longer need to worry about applying exactly a pea-sized amount of paste to the toothbrush, as one of our tablets is precisely measured for a single brushing session. Moreover, Fresmy toothpaste tablets are packaged in eco-friendly materials, reducing concerns about microplastic consumption.

 

 

Toothpaste tablets as a solution to children’s oral hygiene problems

We see that the number of toothpaste tablet users is increasing daily, and people appreciate our product. This reassures us that parents are eager to provide high-quality, natural products for their young children. Currently, Estonia faces a significant issue with children’s oral hygiene. Early dental problems often persist into adulthood. We believe that an exciting product like toothpaste tablets can introduce a playful element to oral care, making it easier for parents to encourage their children to brush their teeth.

 

How to use toothpaste tablets?

Using toothpaste tablets is simple and engaging for kids: chew the tablet, brush with a toothbrush, watch as it magically foams, then spit out the foam. We recommend not rinsing the mouth afterward, allowing the ingredients to have a prolonged effect on the teeth.

Hydr-… oxy-… apatite. What is it?

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite, predominantly found in our bones and teeth.

HAp is a natural alternative for fluoride that works differently but as well as fluoride in preventing dental decay. If fluoride creates a protective layer on enamel then hydroxyapatite acts as a filler, by restoring minute cracks and scratches on tooth surface.

 

 

Remineralization

Tooth enamel is constantly attacked by acids from bacteria and foods – a process known as demineralization. Saliva normally counteracts this by replenishing minerals, but if the amount of saliva secretion becomes inadequate, due to poor health, or due to excessive consumption of acidic foods, demineralization is prolonged, and remineralization by the saliva cannot keep up, making teeth more vulnerable to decay.

The most effective way to restore missing minerals is to replace them directly. Hydroxyapatite is missing, we replace it with Hydroxyapatite!

 

History of HAp

In 1972, a NASA scientist patented a precursor to hydroxyapatite for tooth repair. This innovation was driven by the need to address bone loss, a significant health concern for astronauts during a prolonged stay in zero gravity.

In 1974, a Japanese businessman, while exploring potential business opportunities, came across this NASA patent. After extensive research and testing, he launched the world’s first hydroxyapatite-based toothpaste in 1980 to treat dentin hypersensitivity and for caries prevention.

It was not until 2006 that the first toothpaste containing HAp as an alternative to fluoride was launched in Europe.

Over the years, HAp has become extremely popular in the natural health world, with countless brands releasing their own hydroxyapatite oral care products. Therefore also a number of systematic reviews and meta-analyses have been published on the use of hydroxyapatite in preventing oral health problems, proving its multiple benefits.

Benefits of hydroxyapatite:

• Natural remineralization: hydroxyapatite helps in the remineralization process, making it effective in strengthening teeth.
• Biocompatibility: HAp binds chemically to bone but is non-toxic and does not cause inflammation, reducing the risk of adverse reactions.
• Non-toxic: hydroxyapatite is natural and safe for long-term use.
• Reduction of dental hypersensitivity: HAp acts as a filler, by restoring minute cracks and scratches, thus reducing tooth sensitivity.
• Natural whitening: the mineral crystals in hydroxyapatite reflect light, creating a whitening effect that makes your smile look brighter and healthier without harsh abrasives or bleaching agents.
• Promotes a healthy oral microbiome: HAp inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria, reduces plaque formation, and balances the pH level in your mouth

What is nano-hydroxyapatite?

Nano (smaller) refers to the size of the hydroxyapatite particles. Logically we would assume that nano-sized particles should be more effective at remineralizing teeth because of their smaller size but…. 

The last few years there have been concerns about the potential side effects of using nano-particles in the mouth. To ensure the full safety of nanoparticles for human health, based on the European Commission’s directive, nHAp particles must be at least 100 nanometres long and not needle-like. Therefore, if we use these kinds of nanoparticles in cosmetic products, we risk that these particles penetrate the cells of the human body and cause genetic damage. 

While research on nanoparticles is still ongoing, the European Union has accepted regulation (no 2024/858) with restrictions for nano-hydroxyapatite use in oral care in March 2024.

Fortunately, HAp does not necessarily have to be in the form of nanoparticles. It is also sufficient if the HAp is biomimetic. Biomimetic means that the synthesized material has chemical-physical properties that match those of the material found in the human body. 

Taking all this into consideration, Fresmy has chosen biomimetic hydroxyapatite (that is not in the form of nanoparticles) in our toothpaste tablets, so our users’ teeth would benefit from this ingredient’s awesome properties.

 

When is hydroxyapatite a better choice?

If you are sensitive to fluoride

If you are sensitive to fluoride, using hydroxyapatite toothpaste tablets is a wise choice. The lack of fluoride reduces the risk of adverse reactions, making it an effective and safe alternative for maintaining oral hygiene. 

If you are concerned that your children accidentally / intentionally swallowing fluoride toothpaste

For parents, hydroxyapatite provides peace of mind. Unlike fluoride, hydroxyapatite is non-toxic and safe if ingested, making it an excellent option for young children. This ensures your child’s oral hygiene routine is both effective and safe.

If you are pregnant

Pregnant women may consider switching to hydroxyapatite toothpaste to avoid potential fluoride exposure risks. 

If you have concerns about your oral microbiome

Fluoride can sometimes disrupt the bacterial balance in the mouth, but hydroxyapatite helps support a healthy oral environment. It works without disturbing the beneficial bacteria.

If you live in areas with fluoridated water or water with a high natural fluoride content

Fluoride has long been known to be a very toxic substance, so you do not want to risk potential fluoride overexposure. To avoid it, it would be a good idea to consider switching to hydroxyapatite-based oral care. For example, there are still many areas in the USA where tap water is fluoridated. Higher natural fluoride levels have been measured also in western and central Estonia.

If you prefer a natural alternative

Hydroxyapatite is an excellent choice for individuals seeking a more natural oral hygiene product. 

 

While fluoride has been a cornerstone of dental care for decades, hydroxyapatite offers a natural and equally effective alternative. Both fluoride and hydroxyapatite are scientifically proven to reverse dental decay—why not choose the less toxic one? 

For those uncertain about which option to choose, it’s always best to consult with a dental professional to determine the most suitable solution for your specific situation.

Why didn’t my package of toothpaste tablets arrive in the mailbox?

We offer our customers in Estonia a convenient way to order toothpaste tablets directly to their mailbox. However, there may be occasions when the convenient service you have chosen turns out to be an annoying and time-consuming journey to the post office. But why is that? What are the reasons why the package of toothpaste tablets you ordered hasn’t reached you?

Whether you’re making a one-time purchase, are a regular subscriber, or are starting to subscribe, as long as your order contains no more than 2 paper packs of toothpaste tablets, you can have your shipment delivered to your mailbox. It’s definitely a convenient way to save time as you don’t have to go to the parcel machine.

However, before you order your toothpaste tablets in the mailbox, you should check that it meets the requirements of the Estonian Post.

If you are installing a new mailbox or already have one, we recommend you check the standard terms and conditions of AS Eesti Post’s Universal Postal Service and the requirements laid down in the Postal Act.

For more details see HERE.

 

One of the most important things to remember is that the mailbox must ensure the preservation of the mail and the owner or landlord of the building or apartment is responsible for its upkeep.

If necessary, make changes or inform the cooperative of the apartment building or, in the case of rent, the owner of the property. Depending on whether you live in a private house, a block of flats or a terraced house, the types of mailbox also vary.

If you live in a private house, terraced house or semi-detached house, you may prefer a top-fill mailbox. In high-traffic areas, it is also advisable to lock the mailbox, as this ensures that the mail is kept safe. Be sure to place the mailbox outside the fence, if possible at the end of the driveway, and make sure that your pet (especially your dog) does not endanger the postman.

If you live in a block of apartments, make sure that the cooperative has installed compliant mailboxes before you order toothpaste tablets in your mailbox. Many old apartment blocks still have mailboxes that were installed when the building was first built.

Mailbox requirements

• Minimum dimensions of the mailbox – 25x35x6 cm. 
• Minimum dimensions of the opening of the mailbox – 2×23 cm.

Fresmy toothpaste tablets will be sent in an envelope as a max letter, measuring 2x14x24cm. Therefore, if your mailbox meets the minimum requirements of the Estonian Post, you should have no problems receiving your package and do not need to make a trip to the post office.

 

If you have decided to order your toothpaste tablets in a mailbox:

• Make sure your mailbox meets the requirements;
• At the time of ordering, be sure to enter a correct and accurate postal address;
• Empty your mailbox regularly. As our package is quite large, keep the mailbox empty of periodicals to fit our package;
• If you’ve done all you can and you’re waiting for toothpaste tablets in your mailbox but they still haven’t arrived, make sure there’s no notification of arrival at the post office among the periodicals or advertising leaflets. It’s possible that, despite everything, the package didn’t fit in the mailbox;
• AS Eesti Post does not provide a tracking code for letters. Therefore, once we have handed it over to the postman, unfortunately we cannot track it!

 

If you had problems receiving your toothpaste tablets from the mailbox and had to follow it to the post office, we recommend that you change your delivery method to parcel delivery.
