I looked up the ingredients in the 'BioXtra' products and they sound helpful for oral hygiene and for maintaining a moist mouth.

Perioextra also eludes to the same benefits but I did not find their list of ingredients directly on their site.

My husband will soon need a less irritating toothpaste and a moisturizing gel, from what I have read on this post BioExtra seams like the best option for now. Any experience with this product or any other suggestions are welcome.

So glad I found out about the downgrade in bioteen ingredients before buying the product. I have been informing the staff at the hospital about the change as they are unaware. I will keep them informed of better options so they can refer these to their patients.

You guys Rock! Sophie
