創新與研究

Dr. Wolff 的研究

我們的牙齒不斷地受到大量侵害,包括酸性食物和飲品,而且每天因咀嚼、刷牙和無意識的磨牙所產生的壓力,亦會令牙齒受損。結果,牙齒便會出現微細小孔,琺瑯質亦變得越來越薄。今天,這些牙齒問題已相當普遍,為了避免牙痛和接受收費高昂的牙科治療,我們需要進一步研究創新的牙科護理產品。 您可在這裡了解有關創新活性成份仿天然琺瑯質微粒(hydroxyapatite/BioHAP)的研究和其功效的更多資訊,並在我們的地圖上查看Dr. Wolff 的研究網絡。

牙齒侵蝕:一個常見的問題

歐洲的研究顯示,幾乎三分之一的人口都面對牙齒侵蝕問題¹,而且一般人難以察覺。有汽飲品或汽水、柑橘類水果或果汁中的酸性物質,都會耗損琺瑯質並導致侵蝕,令到琺瑯質被分解。

琺瑯質會變得越來越薄和透明。日積月累下,由於具有保護作用的琺瑯質流失(特別在齦緣(牙齦邊緣)),因而令牙齒的外觀開始缺乏光澤,同時在咬蘋果或喝冷水時會產生痛楚。

創新和有效的口腔護理概念:在刷牙時重新形成一層琺瑯質,從此告別琺瑯質耗損

我們能否阻止琺瑯質自然耗損?雖然人體無法自行修復已流失的琺瑯質,可是科學家已運用仿生學原理,重新製造一種與人類琺瑯質非常相似的仿天然琺瑯質微粒(Hydroxyapatite/BioHAP)。就如真正的琺瑯質一樣,這種物質是由 hydroxyapatite 組成,亦即是Bioniq® 修復產品所含有的活性成份。刷牙時,仿天然琺瑯質微粒(Hydroxyapatite/BioHAP)能在牙齒上積聚,而不會被磨損。

仿天然琺瑯質微粒 (hydroxyapaptite/BioHAP) 成份能在牙齒表面上積聚,防止琺瑯質被酸性物質侵害,從而保護牙齒免受耗損。這種成份能穿透微細小孔縫並修復孔洞區域。恆常使用,琺瑯質便能得到妥善的保護,變得光滑、堅固和耐用。

Hydroxyapatite 如何發揮保護牙齒的功效

Hydroxyapatite 在保護牙齒上的背後原理已得到臨床驗證,能為我們的口腔健康帶來多種好處:

  • Hydroxyapatite 能在牙齒上形成一層保護層,保護牙齒免受酸性物質侵蝕。
  • 當細菌的酸性物質侵害牙齒時, hydroxyapatite 會釋放出鈣質,保護牙齒以免脫礦。
  • Hydroxyapatite 能減少細菌黏附在牙齒表面,以及減低牙菌膜形成。
  • Hydroxyapatite 能防止因牙頸外露而引起的牙齒敏感。
  • Hydroxyapatite 能修復琺瑯質(重新再礦化),防止蛀牙。
  • Hydroxyapatite 能積聚在牙齒上,使牙齒更顯亮白。

我們的口腔護理產品含有 20% 仿天然琺瑯質微粒(Hydroxyapatite/BioHAP),能夠保持牙齒健康。
