Major toothpaste manufacturers have been making toothpaste for over one hundred years.  The world of oral disease has significantly changed in this time period,  especially the last 25 years.  Yet, these large companies continue to make and sell the same toothpaste with the primary preventive ingredient of fluoride.  Amazing isn't it.  

Large toothpaste companies make toothpaste for the masses, not for small market populations, which have risen significantly in the last 25 years.  Frankly,  these large companies are very happy with their increase in sales only because the population has risen in adults 21 years of age and older.   In the same time period tooth decay has and will continue to grow unless better oral care products are specifically for young children especially those with special needs. The SOLUTION is XYLITOL which has been used in Scandinavia since the mid 1970's. 

Using Fluoride ALONE has been scientifically proven to decrease tooth decay and improve oral health br 24%.  Using XYLITOL daily at some has bee scientifically PROVEN to decrease tooth decay and improve oral health by 72%.  Fluoride is old technology and XYLITOL is the latest technology.   You should make THE BEST CHOICE for the health of your mouth.  

You should be using Dr Branams Xylitol toothpaste and gel at home daily if you have any of the following:

•Infant or toddlers 1 year of age or older 
•Children 6 years of age or younger 
•Children of any age with many cavities 
•A parent who has multiple cavities 
•Parents who see a dentist less than once a year or never see a dentist 
•Parents who do not brush at bedtime 
•Parents who put the  baby to bed with bottle of milk or juice or breast-feed In the middle of the night 
•Parents who take their children to a General dentist.....no a pediatric 
dentist 
•Families who have a history of high rates of tooth decay 
•Parents of children with special needs, autism, Down Syndrome,  Cerebral Palsy,  or are Wheelchair bound 

I have been able to reduce the need for extensive and expensive dental treatment by 60 % in my own pediatric  dental practice over the last 12 years.  The answer is using Dr Branams Xylitol toothpaste and gel DAILY AT HOME.  Obviously,  my goal is to improve the oral health and lower tooth decay in the entire family.  The key is to have parents  use these products themselves and introduce them to their infants and other children. 

I truly hope that this truthful and accurate information is helpful and beneficial. 

FOR BETTER ORAL HEALTH FOR YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY.

TikTok and Instagram have been criticized for some of their posts, which are considered misinformation and for entertainment purposes.   On the other hand, many people are posting accurate and educational information.  I am a contributor to the later information.   

Having interviewed thousands of parents in my pediatric dental practice, I am amazed at the misinformation and poor advice many of my patients have received.   This inaccurate advice not only comes from friends,  family,  coworkers, and the internet,  but it also comes from medical and dental professionals.   I find this appalling.   

My goal is to give my parents, patients,  and the general public TRUTHFUL AND ACCURATE  information based upon my 45 years of experience and scientific articles that I have found true.  I produce posts on TikTok and Instagram because I have learned that this generation of parents often go to these sites for their information.   

My information is not entertaining or exciting, but it is TRUTHFUL and BENEFICIAL to improve oral and dental health.   I encourage you to follow me on one or both sites and recommend the same to your friends and family.   

Yours for the best oral health,  
Dr Steve Branam 

I want people to be better acquainted with me and my story to begin focusing on preventing tooth decay in families,  especially those with young children.   This transition occurred over the last 16 years of my 40-year professional dental career.    
I am Dr Steve Branam,  a pediatric dentist trained and educated to provide mainstream dental care for patients.  I was taught to drill, fill, repair, or extract infected and decayed teeth. FORTY YEARS AGO,  childhood tooth decay was a significant problem,  and it has increased to become a SEVERE problem and continues to increase.  I realized that tooth decay is a public health issue.  Tooth decay is prevented at home, NOT in the dental office.   Preventing tooth decay does not benefit dentists, but prevention benefits the general public.  

Preventing tooth decay occurs over time and will benefit children and families today and generations to follow.  I had watched tooth decay rise in my pediatric dental practice.  Using Fluoride ALONE  has FAILED, even though it has been the recommended preventive agent by mainstream dentists for over 60 years.  I decided to find a better substance to reduce tooth decay and oral bacteria.   I have been successful in finding that ingredient, which is XYLITOL.  It has been used in Scandinavia for over 50 years to reduce tooth decay, and the American Dental Association has known its benefits since the mid-1970s.   

I committed to becoming a more holistic dentist focused on preventing and minimizing the need for extensive, expensive mainstream dental treatment.  I aim to benefit my patients and the general public, especially those who do not seek regular dental care.   

I spent time, energy, and money developing the Dr Branam Xylitol toothpaste and gel.   They have been clinically tested and proven to be safe and effective.  They are new technology that reduces the BACTERIA, which causes tooth decay and gum disease.   Using these products AT HOME DAILY will improve your entire family's dental and general health today and for the next generation.   

The use of Dr Branam Xylitol products by my patients has allowed me to provide less mainstream treatment.  This gives me more time to treat more patients with less tooth decay.   My patients and parents appreciate having better oral health and spending less time and money in my office.  

Yours for better and less expensive dental care.​
