FAQ

There are so many mouthwashes and oral rinses. What’s different about BEAM?

PEP+ BEAM is the first oral rinse on the market that incorporates the power of our two restorative peptides AGRP and DBP to deliver real results. This innovative rinse is formulated to rejuvenate oral tissue, reduce redness and puffiness, fortify enamel, and calm sensitivity. It has a smooth, mint mouth-feel and absolutely no harsh chemicals - no alcohol, no numbing agents, and nothing that will stain your teeth.

What are peptides and why are they useful?  

Peptides are short protein chains of amino acids that affect important functions in our bodies and have already been used successfully in facial care products. In our BEAM oral rinse, peptides support oral health by promoting the natural restoration of tissues and teeth, soothing irritated areas, and maintaining a healthy balance of the oral microbiome. Their small size allows them to penetrate more effectively and target specific concerns.

What are AGRP and DBP?

AGRP and DBP are advanced peptides patented by Pomelo Biosciences for their powerful restorative properties. They are produced in a state-of-the-art, certified manufacturing facility. We have conducted extensive laboratory and customer studies to confirm their effectiveness.  Those customers have had overwhelmingly positive feedback and testify to BEAM’s restorative effects.

What does it mean to rejuvenate oral tissue?  Don’t other mouth rinses do the same thing?

While many mouth rinses claim to promote oral health, they often rely on harsh chemicals like alcohol, chlorhexidine, and iodine. These ingredients indiscriminately kill good and bad mouth bacteria, leading to an imbalance in the oral microbiome, as well as may cause anti-microbial resistance. These chemicals also cause side effects such as burning, tooth stains, and mouth dryness.  

PEP+ BEAM Oral Rinse is different. It is specifically formulated with peptides that actively rejuvenate oral tissue by promoting natural oral tissue growth, reducing redness, and soothing sensitivity—without the harsh side effects. The other ingredients such as xylitol, mint essential oil, and calcium chloride complement the peptides to work while soothing oral problems and supports the mouth’s natural ability to heal for healthier, stronger tissue and teeth.

Why do I need to swish and rinse for at least 5 minutes with PEP+ BEAM? Other mouthwash directions say to swish for much shorter times, like 30 seconds, before spitting.

Common rinses have antiseptic and antibacterial ingredients that are effective within a short time for reducing bacteria and germs in the mouth. By contrast, the health-promoting peptides in PEP+ BEAM need time to be fully absorbed into your oral mucosa, gums, and teeth, and the longer you swish, the more effective it will be. In addition, as you swish BEAM, the use-as-directed 10 mL amount of rinse will be slowly diluted since your mouth will continue to produce saliva over those 5 minutes. 

Some customers have reported creative and fun routines where they used PEP+ BEAM rinse while showering as a way to save time.

I’ve heard that PEP+ BEAM Oral Rinse can reduce pain from oral or mouth canker sores?

While everyone’s experience may vary, our customers have reported significant relief from oral discomfort and swelling even after a single use of PEP+ BEAM. No anesthetics like benzocaine, no numbing. PEP+ BEAM oral rinse is designed to support your mouth’s natural healing process without numbing your mouth or tongue. We encourage you to try it for yourself and share your experience—your feedback helps us continually improve our products.

How long does it take for PEP+ BEAM oral rinse to relieve my symptoms?

Relief times can vary depending on the severity of your individual oral health concerns. Some customers have reported noticeable results within a day for acute, short-term concerns. For best results, use PEP+ BEAM oral rinse twice daily and continue for 2-4 weeks. For ongoing or severe issues, we recommend consulting your dentist to ensure the product is suitable for your specific needs.

My mouth is very sensitive to irritating flavors.  Can I still use your PEP+ BEAM oral rinse?

Yes, PEP+ BEAM oral rinse is designed to be gentle on sensitive mouths. It features a light mint flavor and a patented alcohol-free, peptide-based formula to provide effective protection without the irritation commonly associated with numerous traditional mouth rinses.

If you are concerned about flavor sensitivity, you can dilute the rinse by mixing a capful of PEP+ BEAM oral rinse with a capful of clean water. This should help reduce any potential irritation while still providing effective results.

What happens if I accidentally swallow a mouthful of the PEP+ BEAM oral rinse?  

If you accidentally swallow a mouthful of PEP+ BEAM oral rinse, there is generally no cause for concern. The ingredients are carefully selected to be safe for oral use, and peptides are typically well-tolerated even when ingested in small amounts. However, if you experience any unusual symptoms or have concerns, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider or contacting your local poison control center for further guidance.

Can my children use PEP+ BEAM oral rinse?

Yes, PEP+ BEAM oral rinse is safe for children when used as directed, under supervision (typically aged 8 and older). If accidental ingestion occurs and your child experiences any discomfort, consult a healthcare professional or contact your local poison control center.
