Features of the line
Amway has been producing health and beauty products for 50 years. A recent update was the oral hygiene line. Glister is a brand of products for daily oral and dental care, which has a significant preventive effect. Amway products can prevent diseases of the mouth, teeth, and gums.
- Toothpaste;
- concentrating rinse liquid;
- air freshener in spray form;
- dental floss;
- children's toothbrush;
- universal brushes.
The complex was tested not only by dentists, but also by representatives of other fields of medicine. Products from the Glister line are often prescribed for the prevention and treatment of nasopharyngeal diseases. The line has a quality mark from the Russian Dental Association. The “Seal of Approval” confirms the safety of the product.
Glister Rinse Liquid
The line includes a special mouthwash. It is sold in 50 ml bottles. Like most Amway products, the liquid is a concentrate. The mouthwash is a thick, dark green liquid. It has a pronounced menthol smell and contains a small amount of alcohol. To prepare the solution, you need to spray the liquid into the cap and dilute with water.
It is worth noting that the product is economical: the bottle is enough for one hundred rinses (6 liters of solution). You can take the jar on the road or to work, because it is equipped with a dispenser and a measuring cup-cap. It is recommended to use the liquid twice a day immediately after brushing your teeth.
The therapeutic effect of Amway products has been proven in practical medicine, so the mouthwash is prescribed not only for prevention purposes, but also for the treatment of diseases of the mouth and teeth.
Rinse liquid is recommended for the following conditions:
- initial stage of caries;
- inflammation of the gums;
- plaque;
- damage to the mucosa;
- halitosis (bad breath).
Contraindications:
- critical thinning of enamel;
- violation of the integrity of the enamel;
- mucosal erosion;
- hyperesthesia (tooth sensitivity);
- age up to 12 years;
- individual sensitivity to components.
The rinse solution from the Glister line is even more effective in combating plaque than toothpaste. There is a significant medicinal effect: the liquid has helped many people relieve the symptoms of periodontal disease. After rinsing, a persistent pleasant taste remains in the mouth. Fresh breath lasts all day.
Composition of the solution
- Poloxamer-407. One of the few substances that can destroy hard dental plaque.
- Cetylpyridinium chloride. Powerful anti-inflammatory, antiseptic effect. Thanks to it, the solution is able to destroy pathogenic microflora.
- Glycerin ensures the creation of an invisible protective film on the teeth.
- Ethyl alcohol enhances the effects of other components and promotes their instant penetration into tissues.
- Polysorbate-20. An emulsifier that gives a light cleansing effect.
- Saccharin is used to improve taste.
- Menthol is refreshing and has a slight anesthetic effect.
For prevention, the liquid is used twice a day. Morning and evening brushing of teeth, supplemented by rinsing the mouth, meet all hygiene requirements. Such solutions are widely used in dentistry, gynecology and other areas of medicine. Dentists recommend rinse for the treatment of periodontal disease, gingivitis, caries and scurvy.
The components of the product are of plant origin. The solution contains antiseptic additives and is therefore capable of destroying harmful microorganisms. Brushing your teeth, supplemented by rinsing, will be many times more effective. Products from the Glister line help reduce bleeding gums, break down tartar, and plaque.
The exceptional effectiveness of the rinse aid in the fight against caries is noted. The Russian Dental Association distinguishes Glister mouthwash among others. This proves the effectiveness and safety of Amway products.
Benefits of liquid
- Strengthening oral and dental health. After just a month of using the product, you can notice its anti-inflammatory effect.
- Breakdown of dental plaque. It is noteworthy that Glister liquid copes with this task faster than its analogues.
- Solution concentration. Thanks to the richness of the product, it lasts for a long time.
- Fresh breath. They note the persistence of a pleasant odor in the mouth even with severe halitosis.
- Quick impact. The effect of the drug is noted already during the first rinse.
- Depth of impact. The active components of the solution can penetrate deep into the tissue and strengthen dentin.
- Loosening of dental stones. The influence of the active components of the liquid contributes to the destruction of solid deposits, as well as their careful removal without damaging the enamel.
- Accelerated recovery. Promotes the regeneration of damaged areas of the mucosa.
How to use
For rinsing, the liquid obtained from five injections is enough, but it is recommended to start with one. This will allow you to notice side effects and stop using the product if necessary. There is a mark on the measuring cup that shows the required amount of water. Reducing or increasing the dose will reduce the effectiveness of the rinse aid. The rinsing procedure should take a minute. The product should not be swallowed.
With regular use, you can notice the following results:
- disappearance of hard plaque;
- no recurrence of inflammation;
- persistent fresh breath;
- comfortable feeling in the mouth throughout the day.
The indisputable advantage of the design is the ability to dose the product.
Glister toothpaste
Among a huge number of different products, this paste stands out due to its unique gentle effectiveness. Glister toothpaste is a concentrate, so a small volume (literally half a pea) is enough for one teeth cleaning.
Some people report good results when brushing their teeth with a dry brush. The composition of the paste is selected so as to eliminate the need to wet the brush and rinse your mouth. It takes 3-5 minutes to completely clean all teeth.
The company produces only two versions of toothpaste, which differ only in size. For everyday use there is a tube of 200 g, and for travel there is a compact package of 75 g. Many people are dissatisfied with the modest choice, because Amway produces only one flavor of toothpaste, but this allows you to carefully and efficiently develop the product without wasting money on analogues.
Glister toothpaste does not contain components that can destroy enamel, in particular calcium carbonate and bicarbonate. However, this does not mean that the product has no effect on the teeth. The polishing effect is visible even after the first use.
Paste composition
- Water;
- sorbitol;
- silica;
- glycerol;
- propylene glycol;
- sodium lauryl sulfate;
- xylitol;
- carboxymethylcellulose;
- PEG-8;
- xanthan gum;
- sodium fluoride;
- saccharin;
- methylparaben;
- propylparaben.
The advantage of Amway paste is gentle but effective cleansing, while analogues provoke cracking of the enamel. For the first two months, tooth enamel will actively absorb the components of the paste, so during this period sensitivity to cold and hot may appear.
If you use half a pea of paste, one tube is enough for one person for a whole year. But many doubt the effectiveness of cleansing with such a small amount of product, so they use more than just enhance the already pronounced effect on the teeth.
Amway specialists recommend using Glister paste in combination with their brushes. The paste does not destroy dental tissue, but rather strengthens them and maintains healthy gums.
Few oral care products can effectively remove even mild bacterial plaque. Glister toothpaste destroys tartar. The toothpaste itself does not erase the enamel, but if you regularly clean your teeth immediately after eating, you can damage their coating. Experts allow you to rinse your mouth and brush your teeth half an hour after eating.
Pasta capabilities
- removing soft plaque;
- destruction of dental stones;
- strengthening enamel;
- removing stains from tobacco and coloring drinks;
- teeth whitening;
- freshening breath;
- prevention of inflammation;
- relief of toothache.
Glister toothpaste is considered universal. It is suitable for those who want to whiten their teeth and who need protection against caries. In terms of effectiveness and composition, Glister toothpaste is equal to a kilogram of regular product, so the high cost of the product is completely justified.
Since the product is concentrated and used in small doses, one tube of paste can last almost a whole year. To realize the scale of the savings, it is enough to remember the number of pastes that you buy over the course of twelve months.
Refreshing spray
Calorie-free spray Glister has a mint flavor with menthol. The principle of its action is similar to tonics and means for masking alcohol intoxication.
Composition of the freshener spray:
- alcohol denatured alcohol;
- water;
- glycerol;
- flavorings;
- isobutane;
- saccharin;
- menthol.
The spray effectively combats bad breath in cases of liver dysfunction. One injection is enough to normalize the acid-base balance and destroy most bacteria. One bottle of Glister spray can replace 50 packs of chewing gum.
We must not forget about the therapeutic effect of the drug. It is often prescribed as an additional treatment for laryngitis, sore throat and throat discomfort. In some cases, the spray can stop a sore throat at the initial stage and instantly relieve pain. The product is recommended for sore throats in children, since it does not contain antibiotics.
During the cold season, the spray helps maintain the health of the vocal cords. It effectively relieves tension from the throat and softens the negative effects of transitional seasonal phenomena.
How to use
The method of use is very simple, just spray 2-3 times from the bottle into the measuring cap, then add plain water. The result is a liquid that you use to rinse your mouth. Can be used as a gargle for a sore throat or to prevent a viral infection.
It has helped me more than once with pain or a sore throat; after rinsing it felt much better. With the help of concentrated liquid, you can easily get rid of bad symptoms. It disinfects the oral cavity, killing all pathogenic bacteria, and leaves behind a feeling of freshness, cleanliness and a minty smell.
Dental floss
Most people prefer to limit themselves to brushing, but dental floss can penetrate hard-to-reach places and make oral hygiene complete. Any dentist will confirm that only an integrated approach ensures healthy teeth and gums. The Amway line has a unique floss in stock.
Flossing daily prevents tartar buildup more effectively than brushing. Floss cleans the interdental spaces, the space between braces and dentures. The main advantage of dental floss is safety. Floss does not injure the enamel and gums, but if the thread breaks, the mucous membrane may be damaged. Floss from Amway has a pleasant mint taste that easily freshens breath.
Advantages of Glister dental floss:
- simplicity, convenience;
- complete cleansing;
- access to interdental space;
- safety;
- antibacterial.
Usually people experience difficulties only when flossing for the first time. One procedure requires 40 cm of thread. Its ends are wound around the fingers so that it is between the index and thumb. The floss is carefully inserted into the interdental space, moving back and forth, wrapping the floss around the tooth. As you go, you need to change the angle to capture all the deposits. Near the gums you should act carefully.
Key Features and Benefits
Huge economic benefit, one bottle will last for 6-12 months. Considering that the shelf life of the rinse aid is 3 years, and if you do not use it often, it may last you for a long period.
pros
The positive effects of this product include:
- Has effective properties;
- Has a pleasant minty smell;
- Convenient to store and use.
Minuses
What I didn't like was:
- Nothing is said about the product being hypoallergenic;
- Intolerance to the smell of menthol or alcohol-containing substances.
Toothbrushes for adults and children
At first glance, the Glister toothbrush is no different from hundreds of others. The fibers are made from semi-synthetic bristles and piles, with each hair including proteins and biopolymers. The bristles for the brushes are soldered using gene welding technology.
The set contains four brushes of different colors. Stains on the bristles and handle help monitor the condition of your teeth. Initially, the spots have a standard size and color, but as you use the brush, they can decrease or increase, lighten or darken.
The growth of the spot signals the development of the disease and the need to increase the amount of paste. Reduction of the spot indicates the effectiveness of the prevention. An unchanged spot indicates no changes. Lightening the stain until it completely disappears is a reason to change your toothbrush. If lightening occurs very quickly, you need to urgently make an appointment with a dentist. There may be serious violations.
Glister toothbrushes have been tested for strength and safety. The bristles are securely soldered into the frame, which prevents them from falling out and getting into the dental canals and salivary gland ducts. Amway products are optimal in terms of rigidity.
Children's brushes are designed for baby teeth. They help to take good care of your child's teeth, and the soft rounded bristles provide gentle, effective cleansing of the oral cavity. The wide handle of the brush fits well in the baby's palm.
Regular purchase of low-quality toothpastes ends up being more expensive than one tube of Amway, and Glister mouthwash can replace up to five bottles of regular solution. The Amway company offers a complete hygiene complex designed for teeth, gums, and oral mucosa.

Must take: very smart toothbrush Glister Smart Sonic
The superpower of this gadget is that it not only helps to effectively clean, whiten, polish and carefully care for, including sensitive teeth and gums. It TEACHES how to brush your teeth correctly, monitors the quality of brushing in real time and HELPES correct mistakes.
And this is how it works:
— the Glister Smart Sonic brush has 5 cleaning modes for different needs;
— it carries out up to 35,000 movements per minute;
— owners of the brush have access to an application that allows them to control the quality and duration of teeth brushing;
— there is a built-in timer for cleaning duration;
— the nozzle replacement indicator signals its wear;
— the brush is reliably protected from water getting inside (high level of water protection IPX7);
— works up to 4 weeks without recharging.
You can brush your teeth using one of the five modes mentioned above:
Clean - Cleaning
In this mode, the brush makes 34,800 movements per minute. It effectively removes food debris and plaque, prevents the formation of caries and helps restore the natural shade of teeth.
White - Whitening
In this mode, the brush removes tobacco, coffee and other stains from tooth enamel.
Polish - Polishing
This mode allows you to give your smile exceptional shine and your teeth smoothness.
Soft - Delicate cleaning
The brush gently removes plaque, not only cleaning your teeth, but also caring for your gums. Suitable for people with sensitive teeth and gums.
Sensitive - Increased sensitivity
Moving slowly (28,200 strokes per minute), the brush gently cares for sensitive gums and tooth enamel.
But the main assistant in the fight for the perfect smile will be the Glister Smart mobile application. By synchronizing with an electric brush, it helps to monitor the quality of your teeth cleaning and improve the results achieved day after day. After entering data about the condition of your teeth, the degree of their whiteness, bad habits and eating preferences, the application gives individual recommendations for brushing your teeth and helps you choose one of 5 brush operating modes. Using the application, you can set the desired duration of brushing your teeth - from 1.5 to 3 minutes.
In addition, during the cleaning process, Glister Smart determines the position of the toothbrush and shows which part of the oral cavity needs to be cleaned and how. The app also alerts you which areas have been missed and need additional cleaning.
Dentists recommend changing the head of your electric brush every three months—the mobile app will definitely remind you of this. Additionally, the row of bright blue bristles in the center of the head will change color and turn pale after 3 months.
However, we should not forget that oral care should be comprehensive. For better results, you can use Glister oral care products together with an electric brush: toothpaste, dental floss and concentrated mouthwash.
