Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about your oral care? You're in the right place!

Our FAQ section covers everything you need to know about Vernam’s science-backed formulas, natural ingredients, and how they protect your teeth and gums. Explore below to find answers and discover why Vernam is the future of oral care.

Why do my teeth feel sensitive?

Sensitivity occurs when the enamel layer weakens, or gums recede, exposing the inner dentin layer. This makes teeth more vulnerable to temperature changes and certain foods. Vernam toothpaste is designed to strengthen enamel and reduce sensitivity with the power of Bio-Hydroxyapatite (Bio-HAp).

Can brushing too hard damage my teeth?

Yes, aggressive brushing can wear down enamel and irritate gums, leading to sensitivity over time. Using a soft-bristled toothbrush and brushing with Vernam’s enamel-repairing formula can help prevent further damage.

How does Vernam toothpaste help with sensitivity?

Our toothpaste contains Bio-HAp, a natural enamel-repairing ingredient, which works by filling microscopic gaps in enamel and shielding exposed nerves. Regular use helps rebuild tooth strength and provide lasting relief.

What can I do to help my sensitive teeth?

Using a toothpaste specifically formulated for sensitive teeth, like Vernam's All In One Toothpaste, can provide relief when used consistently. Additionally, adopting gentle brushing techniques and consulting with your dentist can help manage sensitivity effectively.

Can Vernam be used alongside dental treatments for sensitivity?

Yes, Vernam toothpaste can complement professional dental treatments. However, it's advisable to consult with your dentist to ensure compatibility with specific treatments.

What makes Vernam different from regular sensitivity toothpaste?

Unlike conventional sensitivity toothpastes that may use fluoride, Vernam utilizes Bio-HAp, a naturally occurring mineral that not only reduces sensitivity but also aids in enamel remineralization and overall oral health.

Is Vernam safe for long-term use on sensitive teeth?

Yes, Vernam All-In-One toothpaste is designed for daily, long-term use. Its natural ingredients, including Bio-HAp, provide ongoing protection against sensitivity without harmful chemicals.

Are there specific foods or drinks I should avoid to reduce tooth sensitivity?

Yes, to minimize tooth sensitivity, it's advisable to limit the intake of acidic foods and beverages such as citrus fruits, tomatoes, wine, and carbonated drinks. These can erode enamel over time, increasing sensitivity.

How does stress contribute to tooth sensitivity?

Stress can lead to teeth grinding (bruxism), which wears down enamel and exposes dentin, leading to increased sensitivity. Managing stress through relaxation techniques can help reduce this risk.

How does Vernam protect my teeth?

Vernam actively restores and defends your teeth:

Repairs Enamel – Bio-HAp fills microscopic cracks and reinforces tooth structure.

Shields Against Sensitivity – Forms a protective layer overdentin, blocking pain triggers.

How does Vernam protect my teeth on a deeper level?

Is Vernam toothpaste safe for long-term use?

Yes! Unlike harsh chemical-based toothpaste, Vernam uses naturally derived remineralizing agents, making it completely safe and effective for everyday use.

Yes, the natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory ingredients in Vernam toothpaste can assist in managing early signs of gum disease by reducing plaque and soothing gum inflammation.

Does Vernam work instantly or over time?

While some benefits like fresh breath are immediate, other effects such as enamel remineralization and sensitivity reduction develop over consistent use, typically within a few weeks.

Why does Vernam combine Ayurvedic ingredients with modern science?
