Dr. Heff's Patient Profiles

  • Dry Mouth

    Patients with a dry mouth often turn to sweets or mints for comfort, which can put teeth at risk. Dr. Heff's are sugar free with a neutral pH, and a tooth-friendly alternative to sugary confectionery, for those dry mouth moments.

  • Higher Risk of Caries

    For those at higher risk of caries, Dr. Heff's can be a great addition to daily routine. Sweetened with xylitol instead of sugar, which contributes to the maintenance of tooth mineralisation. To be used alongside, not instead of, the patient's normal fluoride regime.

  • Aligner Wearers

    Sugar free and dissolvable, Dr. Heff's are suitable for use while aligners are in. They freshen breath, won't make the mouth acidic, and are a tooth-friendly alternative to chewing gum.

  • Head & Neck Cancer

    Many patients who have had head and neck radiotherapy are advised to avoid sugar and acidic foods. Dr. Heff's are sugar free with a neutral pH, so they can be a tooth-friendly option for patients. Patients should follow the advice of their oncology and restorative dental team.

Research

Dr. Heff's have been studied in laboratory research at the University of Illinois Chicago College of Dentistry (Caries Research, 2018), the University of Zurich, the University of Birmingham and the University of Portsmouth, and certified Toothfriendly following in-vivo plaque pH testing. 

We are also collaborating with the University of Portsmouth on independent research into how Dr. Heff's interacts with the oral microbiome. Full references and study summaries are in our Clinical Rationale document.
