I am one of those people who have had to have a tooth removed here and there over the years, not because of decay, but because of problems with my gums.  It seems to be genetic as other members in the family have had similar problems.
Basically, no matter how much I cleaned my teeth, bacteria would penetrate between my teeth and gums, inflaming the gums and eroding the bone that supports the teeth. Apart from very expensive visits to gum specialists (who still did not offer a cure), I had to take control of the situation as best as I could. 
While searching the internet, I stumbled upon the website about Denta-Med.  It seemed to be the answer to my problem, because the nanotechnology could “boost and prolong” the effectiveness of the gel’s active ingredients.  To me, this meant more of a chance to battle the harmful bacteria.
I have been using Denta-Med for about 10 months now and my gums have definitely improved and do not inflame.  I have always had problems with my gums, mostly in my upper mouth.
During my last visit to the Dentist, the Dentist said that my gums had improved (particularly my lower mouth) and stated that I would probably keep those teeth for the rest of my life, she said that she could not have said that before.
Even in the worst problem area between two of my upper teeth, things have definitely improved and I certainly don’t get the regular swelling anymore.
I would recommend Denta-Med to anyone with similar problems, as now I do not fear the occasional abscess anymore causing my face to swell up.
Thank you so much for producing such a great product!!! A.K. Burns Beach, W.A.

After reading about Denta-Med and talking via email to Erin I decided to give it a try. 
 
I have Sjogren's syndrome and have been plagued with dry mouth and mouth ulcers for several years. I would sometimes have 3 to 4 large ulcers at any one time, and regularly resorted to a steroid paste. 
I have used a reputable toothpaste, mouth wash and gels specifically for dry mouth for several years but still the mouth ulcers come.
 
I have used Denta-Med for 12 weeks and have noticed a remarkable improvement in the comfort of my mouth as far as the dry mouth goes---but what amazes me more is the reduction of mouth ulcers I have had. I am not saying that I haven't had any mouth ulcers but they have been dramatically reduced and I have not once, since using Denta-Med, used the steroid mouth ulcer treatment. I find if I have an ulcer I treat it with a dab of Denta-Med in addition of using Denta-Med as a toothpaste twice daily.
 
The bottom line is that I have found a dramatic improvement with dry mouth and an even more dramatic improvement with recurring mouth ulcers.
I highly recommend this product and thank you, thank you for making this product available. V.K, Qld

Also, two of my friends who have suffered from cancer have both said Denta-Med gel was the only thing that made their mouth’s feel comfortable and clean. They too, had tried everything that was available at the pharmacies and supermarkets, but only Denta-Med worked.   

Thank you Dr. Shanahan, it’s the best product for the mouth, whatever your health circumstances are.”

"...for the past 25 years I have had dry mouth and have also had a metal taste in my mouth. Now after using Denta-Med gel that taste has finally gone and I no longer have dry mouth. It is a miracle. 
Thank you very much for your product." E.S, Victoria

"...I would like to say that I don't know what I'd do without it.  I have suffered from mouth ulcers for a lot of my 34 years of life and now, while I do still get them, the frequency is less and so too are they less severe.  Thanks for producing a product that I definitely have to say has improved my life as a whole."

Dear Sir/Madam,
I have used Denta-Med and have found it the only thing that cured my sore tongue. I have tried everything & have been to doctors, specialists, naturopaths & no one could cure it or even knew what I had! But finally after a trip to Perth I found a chemist who prescribed Denta-Med & I am grateful and wish to thank you & I have passed on my find to the local doctor and friends…Mrs.J.W, Vic.

        Honestly I must say, after spending hundreds of dollars on mouthwashes,toothpastes, mints, and sprays which did not work for me.  My mouth no longer has the metallic taste, it now feel and smell clean for the entire day.  I am finally cured from (CBB).  Again thank you for curing the most embarrassing hygiene problem in the most economical way you have done an outstanding job!    MGH -Washington, D.C.

Further treatment, radiotherapy to the neck area followed immediately and this left me with the residual after effects of damaging the enamel to all of my teeth, damage to taste buds, and saliva glands, causing me to suffer for nearly 7 years with persistent and painful ulcers to the mouth, cheeks, and tongue.
Mouth washes 4 times a day, gum shields with fluoride gel, artificial saliva sprays and various liquids and lozenges, to such failed to make any impression to these ulcers, resulting in years of eating very bland foods and lukewarm liquids.

A few weeks ago I was asked by the Doctors in radiotherapy if I would like to use a sample tube of a new gel (Denta-Med) that they had on hand at the Hospital.

I agreed but must admit I was not at all confident that it would help me with my ulcers. However, I cleaned my teeth after lunch and then applied the gel with a small soft toothbrush as recommended to all the soft tissue of the mouth and gums. Within an hour my mouth felt unfamiliarly clean and fresh. I kept this routine for several days after each meal, and especially at night.

Lo and behold, within a week almost every ulcer had disappeared, and my mouth, at night, usually so dry that I would awake to spray my mouth with artificial saliva was no longer a problem. It remained moist, not wet and I was able to enjoy undisturbed sleep, for the first time in years.

My mouth now has only one small persistent ulcer on the side of my tongue which I believe is mostly caused by rubbing against rough tooth enamel. I would like to thank you and your company for producing this very effective gel, and I am sure thousands of people will eventually use it and receive
the same relief that I experienced. I will unreservedly recommend your (Denta-Med) gel to any person suffering with ulcers and gum troubles.

I would like to thank you for introducing me to your product Denta-Med. Since it has now been a month I feel that you should know just how beneficial it has been to me, as you know I am on a clinical trial at Royal Brisbane Hospital for throat cancer which as has left me with some severe side effects one of them being dry mouth and general mouth disorders, not an easy thing to put up with ,I have had discomfort from the radiation treatment for almost nine years now and have tried to address these issues with many products, none of them worked satisfactorily.

However since following your advice I have definitely noticed an improvement to my oral hygiene plus my dry mouth and and throat do definitely seem to have improved dramatically, Denta-Med, it would appear to me has been able to address the issue of dry mouth by forming a physical barrier which somehow gives me the ability to not have to use copious amounts of water, I still have dry mouth which unfortunately is permanent but I definitely do not have the irritation and get comfort from using your product.

I am no dentist, however my dentist on my last visit which was 2 days ago was very impressed with my oral hygiene and my gums and in his own words said ” I don’t know what your doing but whatever it is keep it up” I told him about Denta-Med and he said he would look into it as he treats a number of patients with dry mouth. Having said that, it also has been very helpful to not only myself but my family, as I now have some comfort which is stress relieving which in turn has been good for all of us.

Patrick, I cannot thank you enough for developing this product it has changed my life and my general self esteem has also improved along with the obvious beneficial oral health issues.I will continue to use Denta-Med and have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone in similar circumstances,as I stated previously I have tried for nine years and Denta-Med is by far the best product that I have been able to use. Kind Regards with many thanks,

I must first let you know a little about my history which I believe is very applicable. I was born with a cleft lip and palate which has always been the bane of my life and something I have had to come to terms with, I have an identical twin sister and there have always been comparisons made between us, both by ourselves and other people. I guess it was these comparisons and striving for sameness that led me to a surgeon to have the first of many operations both oral and cranio-facial.

Subsequently there were many visits to periodontists, orthodontists, prosthodontists, and plastic surgeons. Nobody would touch me or even look at me with a so called "dirty mouth". I had always thought that I looked after and cleaned my teeth well, until I met my prosthodontist. This therefore meant endless teeth scrubbing and flossing. Eventually I reached an acceptable standard and was operated on in the Royal Adelaide Hospital in 1979, and 1980, and later in Perth in 1983. I was then fitted with an appliance with teeth that has become part of my life.

The only dilemma that this reality presented was that it was not a permanent fixture and that it covered my entire hard palate. This was further compromised by the fact that I became pregnant (after I married in 1987) and during this pregnancy became very susceptible to gingivitis. I was forever cleaning my teeth and if I so much as missed out one cleaning session, that I would suffer the consequences.

I went on a quest then to find something that could combat the evil gingivitis at all times. At the same time I needed to feel confident enough about the product to use it regularly and that it would the affected part on the path of reform.

It was suggested to me by a friend that I use an oral gel (Denta-Med), and what a terrific result I had in such a short time! It was certainly worth the wait. I really believe that this oral gel (Denta-Med) deserves a very high profile in the field of dentistry. I not only use it as a normal toothpaste, but also as a gel under my appliance after I have brushed my teeth. The best thing about it is if that if I do miss a brushing or I am eating on the run I feel sure the gel (Denta-Med) is attacking the plaque.

AP Gel (Denta-Med) has been used for 3 years in this home. Audits have revealed AP Gel (Denta-Med) has been effective in maintaining a very satisfactory oral health standard but in many cases markedly improved the oral health status of our residents.
Director of Nursing, FB Nursing Home, WA

I have been using Denta-Med gel regularly since Dr. Shanahan first introduced this product...during this time I have not had any trouble with gingival tissues, never get mouth ulcers (I used often to suffer these) and never get a sore throat. I am very pleased with these results and have no hesitation in recommending the gel to all my friends. Yours sincerely, H.M, Nedlands, WA. 

Before your lecture in Bunbury 8 or so years ago I started using the AP gel (Denta-Med) with spectacular results.
At first I used it 3 times a day, just to make sure, as I was still cleaning my teeth many times a day.
However, about 2 months later I stopped the excessive cleaning, and my breath was not waking me up at night. People were not taking a step back when I spoke. I felt I could even breathe normally when attending my patients instead of holding my breath, then turning away to exhale.
After about 12 months -ever cautious - I reduced my use of the Gel to twice a day, but I really could have done it much earlier, I think.
Two years ago the root cause was diagnosed as food sensitivity. Since eliminating the problem foods from my diet I use the Gel once a day as a prophylactic.

At the time of your first lecture in Bunbury I nursed in aged care and the nursing home bought some of the gel (Denta-Med) for 2 of our residents whose dental problems caused them distress.

One, Mrs W, had had recurrent mouth ulcers most of her life and became unable and unwilling to tolerate dentures. She was "fed up". We used the Gel for her oral hygiene, and after a week por so persuaded her to give her teeth another try, using a dob of Gel on the palate of her dentures as well as cleaning her oral cavity with it. I don't recall her having much problem thereafter.

Another lady, Mrs L, was from admission reluctant to allow oral care. Obviously it was too painful. She had teeth that were almost black. She was seen by a dentist, but it was deemed by him and the family that treatment would be too stressful for her(she was very disorientated and confused) She had a strong faecal odour to her breath which was occasionallty treated successfully with Flagyl, but once the course was completed the odour would return. Nothing we did would moderate it. We decided to try the (Denta-Med ) gel. Because she refused to open her mouth for oral care, we used to put a little (Denta-Med) gel on a spoon and offer it to her. She had a habit of rolling food around her mouth and this she did with the (Denta-Med ) gel too.

A few weeks later she allowed us to clean her mouth with some gel on gauze, and a few weeks after we were able to use a soft toothbrush.

The faecal odour diminished and finally went after about six months and Mrs L changed from being an angry worried looking lady to being a happy person who laughed readily. She even opened her mouth spontaneously when she saw the toothbrush. The teeth too lost a lot of their discoloration. I felt at the time this was one of our major achievements in oral care, but really all credit must go to you.

One more success story. Our grandson, Matthew, wore bands on his teeth for 2 years. He was meticulous about cleaning them as per instructions, but was repeatedly in trouble from the orthodontist for his failure to clean them properly. I gave him one of my tubes of Oral Gel (Denta-Med), and from then on all was well. I asked him to tell the ortho what he was using but being shy I'm not sure he did. You can tell what a difference this has made to my life personally and professionally. Thanking you so much.
