How is Oasis® different from regular mouthwash products?
Oasis® Mouthwash and Mouth Spray are specially formulated to moisten and lubricate dry mouth.1
Is Oasis "sticky" like some other artificial saliva products?
The unique TriHydra Technology™ found in Oasis means the product offers a "smooth mouth" feel while it moisturizes the mouth, locks in moisture, and protects from dryness.1
Why does Oasis offer both a mouthwash and a mouth spray?
Convenience and relief. Oasis comes in both a mouthwash and a mouth spray to assist with your patients' daily "dry mouth sufferer" needs. Oasis® Mouthwash in the 16 oz bottle was designed for use in the morning and before bed. And the discreet 1 oz. Oasis® Mouth Spray is small enough for your patients to keep in a purse or briefcase, for fast relief of dry mouth and throat during the day or on the bedside table for quick relief when waking up at night.1
What is the "TriHydra Technology" in Oasis?
TriHydra™ Technology is the special formula found in Oasis that blends different polymers, humectants and water for optimum moisture, to provide lasting relief and a smooth mouth feel. The TriHydra Technology is comprised of two hydrophilic polymers-- xanthum gum and carboxymethylcellulose-- trap water and hold it within a polymer network. Then glycerine is used to coat the mucosal surface and help reduce moisture loss.1
Will Oasis damage the enamel on my patients' teeth?
Where lower pH products have been shown to soften enamel, with erosion potential increasing as pH decreases, Oasis is safe for tooth enamel. So you can recommend it with confidence.2,3
Does Oasis contain any alcohol?
Oasis is alcohol free, gentle, and does not contain known allergens.1
Does Oasis contain any sugar?
Oasis is sugar free and safe to recommend for all your patients with dry mouth discomfort.1
What is the flavor of Oasis?
Oasis Mouthwash and Mouth Spray both have a pleasantly mild mint flavor.1
How long can my patients expect the dry mouth relief found in Oasis to last?
Oasis Mouthwash and Mouth Spray help manage dry mouth symptoms for up to 2 hours.1
How often can Oasis be used?
Oasis Moisturizing Mouthwash is for use once in the morning and once at night, like a regular mouthwash, to keep the mouth moist and fresh. Oasis Mouth Spray offers relief during the day or for quick relief when waking at night, and can be used as required for up to a maximum of 30 times or 60 sprays per day.1
Where can my patients buy Oasis?
Oasis products are sold over-the-counter and are available at pharmacies and food stores nationwide.
