Phthalimidoperoxycaproicacid (PAP)
PAP whitens teeth by oxidizing stains and lightening the overall tooth colour. It works by entering through the enamel layer and altering and breaking down the molecules that hold colour, the smaller the molecule the lighter the colour. PAP does not release free radicals when it oxidizes stains, making it much safer than Hydrogen peroxide for you to use to whiten your teeth.
Hydroxyapatite
Hydroxyapatite (HA)is a major component and an essential ingredient of teeth, giving them the rigidity. Hydroxyapatite makes up bone mineral and the matrix of teeth.
As an active ingredient in PAP+ formula, it rebuilds the protective layer of the teeth, and replaces lost minerals from the tooth surface.
Potassium Citrate
Helps relieve pre-existing sensitivity, and provides long-term protection from external stimuli that cause discomfort. Potassium is an ingredient that is clinically proven to reduce dentin hypersensitivity.
Potassium ions can travel into exposed dentin tubules from the tooth surface to reach internal nerves. Build-up of potassium ions over time helps desensitize nerves in the tooth pulp, making them irresponsive to sensitivity stimuli.
