New Oral Rinse Demonstrates Superior Gingivitis Protection in Saliva Environment
ioRinse Ultra has shown complete elimination of gingivitis-causing bacteria within 30 seconds in saliva-inclusive testing, addressing a critical gap in traditional oral rinse evaluation that could transform daily oral care routines.

As consumers increasingly focus on whole-body wellness, oral care is undergoing a major transformation with new scientific insights revealing that not all oral rinses deliver the same results. Research shows significant variability in how different formulations affect bacteria, plaque, and the oral microbiome, with differences in active ingredients, delivery mechanisms, and interactions with saliva dramatically influencing performance and outcomes.
Recent research suggests that many traditional antiseptic rinses are neutralized by salivary proteins, meaning simple laboratory efficacy testing does not reflect what actually occurs in the mouth because it does not account for saliva's neutralizing effect. Herb Moskowitz, DDS, Chairman of ioTech International, highlights the company's powerful new oral rinse designed to help eradicate pathogens that can cause gingivitis, noting that ioRinse Ultra is a non-staining, pleasant-tasting, long-lasting oral rinse that is safe to use.
Moskowitz emphasized the importance of daily oral care habits for long-term overall health, stating that at-home oral hygiene is essential for maintaining periodontal health with oral rinsing being a crucial part of that care. He explained that what sets ioRinse Ultra apart from other antiseptic rinses is its effectiveness in the presence of human saliva, citing results from recent testing where ioRinse Ultra and six other dentist-recommended rinses were evaluated for their ability to eliminate two bacterial strains known to cause gingivitis.
Within the 30-second testing window, ioRinse Ultra completely destroyed these bacteria and was the only rinse to do so, with testing conducted in the presence of fresh human saliva. As awareness of the oral-systemic health connection grows, choosing the right oral rinse is no longer a minor decision but a foundational step in overall health. ioTech's award-winning rinse and other products are available at the company's website and leading dental offices.
