Ben and Claire kick start this episode with a game called Mint or SuppleMint. Can Claire guess which mint product is actually a supplement for biofilm control? The duo then talk about how it can help as an adjunct to help with treatment of Xerostomia and biofilm management for per patients and those at risk of caries. The wonderful ingredients that benefit our patients include green tea, xylitol, peppermint oil and calcium phosphate.

Claire refers to the study carried out in Malawi (not Malaysia as Claire says in the pod- insert eye roll) which can be found at https://doi.org/10.0116/j.ajog.2021.12.015

The Agony Aunt and Agony Uncle this week is about a hygienist who gets paid hourly who works out that they make approx 10% of what they bring in for the practice. They ask- "is this fair"? Here Claire and Bens opinions on this.
