Fluoride Treatments

I've heard that many fluoride treatments and other pastes and such that dentists use during a cleaning contain gluten. I contacted my dentist and found out that he uses Ziroxide Premiere. I then called the company to find out if it is gluten free. They claim that it is gluten free, although I'm still unsure if they know that gluten is listed as other things besides "gluten" on an ingredient label.

What brands do your dentists use that are gluten free? And can anyone confirm that this is gluten free? Are most brands gluten free?

Thanks.

Well, you won't have to worry about it in fluoride treatments, if you avoid the fluoride to begin with, which is a potent nerve toxin, and something to avoid at all cost to begin with. It has been linked to lower average intelligence in fluoridated communities, mottled teeth, autoimmune diseases, Alzheimers, thyroid problems like goiter and a host of other problems. Here is a link to some interesting info on fluoride.

Sorry, I can't remember which "brand" my dentist uses. I did contact the company and I had the ingredient list in front of me (dentist provided). They also informed me that it was gluten-free. I have had my teeth cleaned several times and have not had a issue.

I got severely glutened on the topical anesthetic which the dentist used prior to the needle. Now I forego the topical and just take the needle. I WAS SO BAD THAT MY HUSBAND HAD TO WRITE THE CHECK FOR ME

and practically carried me out of the office. I never went back to him, he said he had other Celiacs but never checked the label. I've never heard of anyone else having a reaction like this.

When I went to the dentist they checked the ingredients for me. There was only one suspicious thing...it said Contains a thickener. And gluten is often used for a thickener. So they just cleaned my teeth with Crest, which is gluten-free.

      Years of testing - no real answers

      Welcome to the forum, @Kiwifruit! Were you on a reduced gluten diet when those blood tests or the biopsies were done?

      Years of testing - no real answers

      By Kiwifruit · Posted

      Hi everyone. I have a history of GI issues (gas, diarrhoea, pain, fatigue). In 2018 I had a a blood test that returned “weak positive” for Celiac (I don’t have access to this result) and in early 2018 I had an endoscopy. The dr said by appearance he believed it would be Celiac but biopsy said no. 2022 I had another blood test with results: Anti TTG IgA: 27 units (norm 0-20) high IgA: 0.9 g/l (norm 0.8 - 4.0) Endomysial antibodies: neg I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy and had the same abnormal appearance but negative biopsies. All my dissachrides were low so I was referred on to a dietitian. I am still struggling with all my GI issues but now with nausea, brain fog and weakness/joint pain even following the low disaccharide diet with enzymes. I’m now pondering my previous results and see that all 3 low disaccharides can also be an indicator of Celiac. I’m struggling and so confused and wondering if anyone has any guidance or advice for me? Thank you

      Is this safe for someone with celiac disease?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @RMJ and unfortunately different celiacs have different trigger levels for gluten, and some celiacs have little or no symptoms at all when exposed to gluten.
