How to Take ProDentim: One Tablet, Chewed Slowly
To take ProDentim, the sales page says to slowly chew one tablet every morning. The label images print no directions of their own. A tub of 30 soft tablets lasts 30 days at that pace. Keep your brushing routine, and ask a dentist or pharmacist about anything the page leaves out.

How to take ProDentim each day?
Take one soft tablet in the morning and chew it slowly. That is the whole routine the sales page gives (ProDentim sales page).
The tablet is meant to be chewed, not swallowed whole. The sales page also calls it a "dissolvable candy", so it is built to break down in the mouth.
The front of the tub says "30 Soft Tablets". One a day makes a tub last 30 days, and that sum is ours, since the page leaves its day-supply figures blank.
Pick a fixed spot in the morning, such as the kitchen counter, so the habit is easy to repeat. A tub in view is harder to forget than one in a cupboard.
- 01
Read the tub first
The label front shows 30 soft tablets. The images supplied print no panel or directions, so read the panel and any warnings on your own tub before the first tablet.
- 02
One tablet, chewed slowly
The sales page says to slowly chew a tablet every morning. It does not say how long to wait before eating, drinking or brushing, so keep it simple and steady.
- 03
Keep the basics
Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, clean between your teeth daily and see your dentist. The tablet sits on top of that routine, never in place of it.
- 04
Check in before day 60
The guarantee runs 60 days. Around week six, decide with your dentist whether to keep going or ask for your money back.
What do the tub and the label say about directions?
They say nothing. The label images show the front only, with no directions, no warnings and no Supplement Facts panel.
So the one-a-day chew rests on the sales page alone. Your own tub may carry more print than the images do. Read it before the first tablet, and follow it if it differs.

What should you do before the first tablet?
Check the tub, then check yourself. Look for the seal, read any print on the label and note the lot code.
Then ask whether a probiotic suits you. NIH ODS and NCCIH advise asking a clinician first if you are seriously ill, have weak immunity or take antibiotics (NIH ODS, Probiotics (HP)) (NCCIH, Probiotics: Usefulness & Safety).
The same goes if you are pregnant, nursing or giving it to a child. Our side effects page lists the signs that mean you should stop and call a clinician.
Check the cap and the seal when the tub arrives. If anything looks opened or damaged, contact the order desk at +1 (302) 200-3480 before you use it. Keep the packing slip, because the refund steps ask for it (ProDentim refund and contact pages).
What if you miss a morning?
Skip the missed one and carry on the next morning. The sales page gives no catch-up rule.
Do not double up to make up for it. No source we found says that more tablets work better, and the amounts per tablet are not printed.
A missed tablet also leaves a spare one at the end. The count simply runs out a day later, so a tub covers a little over 30 mornings.
How does the tablet fit with brushing and flossing?
It sits beside them and never replaces them. Brush twice a day for two minutes with fluoride toothpaste (ADA MouthHealthy, Brushing Your Teeth).
Clean between your teeth once a day (ADA MouthHealthy, Flossing). See your dentist on the schedule they give you, and keep taking any prescribed medicine exactly as directed.
The sales page does not say whether to chew before or after brushing. Our posts on that question and on timing go through the sensible options. The main routine page is the how to use ProDentim guide.
FAQ01
How to take ProDentim: quick answers
Should I swallow a ProDentim tablet whole or chew it?
Chew it. The sales page says to slowly chew one tablet every morning, and it calls the tablet a "dissolvable candy". The label images print no directions, so follow any print on your own tub if it says something else.
Can children take ProDentim the same way?
We found no children's directions on the label images or the sales page. Ask a pediatrician or dentist before giving any probiotic to a child, and see our kids, pets and pregnancy guide.
Do I need water with the tablet?
The sales page does not say. Because the tablet is chewed and breaks down in the mouth, water is not obviously needed, but that is our reading, not a printed rule. Ask your pharmacist if you are unsure.
How long should I chew the tablet?
The sales page says only to chew slowly and gives no number of seconds. A soft tablet that is designed to dissolve will break down as you chew it. Stop and ask a clinician if it causes mouth pain or an allergic reaction.
