Natural Support for Teeth, Gums & Oral Health

Oral health affects far more than just your smile. Teeth and gums respond daily to diet, stress, habits and dental treatment, and when balance is disrupted it can lead to sensitivity, enamel wear, plaque build-up and discomfort. Natural dental remedies can support oral health alongside brushing, flossing and professional dental care.

Key highlights (quick read)

• Oral health plays a vital role in overall wellbeing, comfort and confidence
• Teeth and gums are living tissue that respond to daily habits and dental stress
• Enamel erosion, plaque build-up and sensitivity often develop gradually over time
• Tooth enamel cannot regenerate once damaged, making protection especially important
• Natural dental remedies can support oral health before, during and after dental challenges when used alongside good dental care

Good oral health isn’t just about a bright smile

Teeth and gums are living tissue, constantly responding to what we eat and drink, how we care for our mouths, stress levels, dental treatments and everyday wear and tear. When something’s out of balance, it often shows up as tooth sensitivity, discomfort, plaque build-up, weakened enamel or slower recovery after dental procedures.

Our Dental & Oral Health range is designed to support the body’s natural healing processes before, during and after dental challenges, using gentle, natural remedies that work alongside good dental hygiene and professional care.

Whether you’re looking to protect tooth enamel, manage plaque, support recovery after an extraction, ease toothache, navigate orthodontic treatment, or address habits like nail biting that impact oral health, this collection offers targeted support for common dental concerns.

Why tooth enamel matters (and why it needs support)

Tooth enamel is the hard, protective outer layer of your teeth. Everyday factors can slowly weaken enamel over time, and once it’s damaged, the body can’t regenerate it in the same way as it does other tissue. In many cases, it’s everyday habits that quietly contribute to enamel wear, such as:

• Acidic foods and drinks (including citrus and fizzy drinks)
• Frequent snacking or sipping throughout the day
• Teeth grinding or clenching
• Braces and orthodontic appliances
• Age-related wear
• Acid reflux or dry mouth
• Poor mineral absorption

As enamel thins, teeth can become more sensitive, more vulnerable to decay, and less resilient overall. Supporting enamel health is about protecting what you have, strengthening resistance, and reducing further breakdown.

Tooth Enamel Plus: Support for weakened, sensitive or at-risk enamel

Tooth Enamel Plus is formulated to support the strength and resilience of tooth enamel, particularly when teeth are feeling sensitive, worn, or vulnerable. It’s often used by people who experience:

• Tooth sensitivity to hot, cold or sweet foods
• Early signs of enamel wear
• Increased risk of erosion due to diet or lifestyle
• Ongoing dental stress (grinding, braces, frequent treatments)

This remedy focuses on supporting the body’s ability to maintain mineral balance and protect the integrity of the tooth surface, making it a good option for long-term oral health support.

Plaque Plus: Support for plaque build-up and gum health

Plaque is a normal part of oral biology, but when it builds up too quickly or isn’t managed well, it can irritate gums and contribute to longer-term dental issues.

Our Plaque Plus remedy is designed to support healthy oral balance and is commonly used alongside regular brushing and flossing to help manage:

• Persistent plaque build-up
• Gum tenderness or irritation
• Areas that are difficult to clean thoroughly
• General oral hygiene challenges

It’s an easy-to-use and supportive option for those wanting to stay proactive about gum and tooth health.

Toothache Plus: Natural support for dental pain and discomfort

Toothache Plus provides targeted support when dental discomfort flares up - whether it’s sensitivity, inflammation, or to help manage pain while waiting for a dental appointment.

People often use this remedy for:

• Sudden toothache
• Ongoing dental sensitivity
• Discomfort linked to decay or dental stress
• Support alongside professional dental treatment

This professionally formulated natural remedy is designed to support the body when dental pain or sensitivity occurs. Instead of masking symptoms, it helps calm the body’s response to discomfort, offering gentle support while the mouth recovers. It’s suitable for use alongside dental care and is a practical remedy to have on hand for those moments when dental discomfort catches you by surprise.

Dental First Aid: Short-term support for minor dental pain

Dental First Aid has been part of our range for some time and continues to be a go-to for quick, short-term support for minor dental pain caused by a broken or cracked tooth, nerve inflammation, decay, injury or root canal.

It’s best suited for:

• Temporary discomfort
• Mild dental irritation
• Situations where immediate relief is needed

Tooth Extraction Support: Recovery support after dental procedures

Dental treatment doesn’t end when you leave the clinic. Tooth Extraction Support is a professionally formulated natural remedy designed to support the body during the recovery phase following tooth extractions and invasive dental procedures.

It’s particularly helpful for people having wisdom teeth removed, and is commonly used to support:

• Healing after tooth removal, including wisdom teeth
• Tissue repair and recovery
• Swelling and post-procedure discomfort
• Overall recovery and resilience during the healing phase

Many people choose to start this remedy shortly before a planned extraction and continue using it afterwards to support the body through the recovery process.

Brace Face: Support for braces, orthodontics and mouth irritation

Braces and orthodontic appliances can place ongoing pressure on teeth, jaws, gums and soft tissue - particularly after adjustments or tightening appointments, when discomfort can flare up. Our Brace Face remedy is designed to support comfort and oral balance during orthodontic treatment, helping the mouth settle as teeth shift and adapt.

It’s often chosen to help support:

• Tender or irritated gums following adjustments
• Jaw soreness caused by brackets, wires or aligners
• Ongoing pressure and sensitivity in the teeth
• General discomfort during orthodontic treatment

A helpful option for both teens and adults navigating long-term orthodontic care, especially during periods of increased sensitivity after tightening.

Biting Nails: Support for the behavioural drivers behind nail biting

Nail biting isn’t just a habit - it can also impact oral health. Repeated biting places ongoing pressure on the teeth and jaw, which over time can contribute to enamel wear, increased sensitivity, and even teeth shifting or misalignment.

Common approaches like bitter nail coatings, barriers or constant reminders to stop can help short-term, they don’t address the underlying drivers behind nail biting which is often linked to stress, anxiety, nervous energy or subconscious coping mechanisms. That’s why for many people, the compulsion is stronger than the deterrent.

Our Nail Biting Stop remedy is formulated to support the behavioural and psychogenic factors behind nail biting, rather than simply trying to stop the action itself. It’s designed for people who want gentle, natural support that works with the body and mind to address the patterns that keep the behaviour going.

This remedy complements mindset and habit-change strategies, making it a supportive option for both adults and children who find  this repetitive behaviour difficult to overcome.

We gave this remedy to Tom, the 18-year-old son of a Hippo HQ team member, who had tried everything to stop biting his nails, with no success. After six weeks on this remedy he told his Mum “it’s amazing, I just don’t feel like biting my nails anymore!”

Using dental remedies alongside good oral care

Our range of dental and oral care remedies are designed to work alongside, not replace, good dental hygiene and professional care. Regular brushing, flossing, dental check-ups and a balanced diet remain essential.

Think of this range as extra support - helping your body respond better to everyday dental stress, recover more effectively, and maintain long-term oral health.

Finding the right support

Everyone’s oral health journey is different. Some people want the ongoing support of tooth enamel protection or plaque management while others have more short-term needs around managing discomfort or supporting recovery after treatment.

If you’re unsure which remedy best suits your situation, our team is always happy to help guide you toward the right option. Because when it comes to oral health, small, consistent support can make a big difference over time.
