GUM Paroex Toothpaste

GUM Paroex is a specialized dental care product line focused on plaque control and gum health. The GUM brand, short for 'Gentle Uman Mouth', was originally founded in the United States by Dr. John O. Butler in Chicago during the 1920s. He pioneered the design of professional-grade toothbrushes and dental aids.

In 1988, the brand was acquired by Sunstar, a prominent Japanese conglomerate specializing in health and oral care. Today, GUM products like Paroex are developed through international research and development. While the parent company is headquartered in Japan and the brand has its roots in the USA, much of the toothpaste production for the European market is centered in Spain. Sunstar operates as a global leader in oral hygiene, maintaining a strong focus on the link between oral health and overall body wellness.
