Interesting company! Are there any commercial oral care products with arginine in them? What’s your opinion on the toothpaste with lysine supplements and the oral probiotics for gum care?
RE: oral probiotics, there is some promising evidence of oral probiotics in improving oral health. We wrote a guide [3] based on the available research that might be helpful.
For lysine, we're still looking into the evidence, but we're excited to see more innovation and research into oral care product ingredients that work with the oral microbiome.

Also, any health concerns with consuming xylitol?
