Dentyne Classic

The original Dentyne was a cinnamon flavored breath-freshening gum which contained sugar. Dentyne Classic was removed from American and Canadian markets in 2006, and was eventually relaunched, only to be removed from markets again in 2019.

Dentyne Ice

A sugarless gum available in several flavors, all "intense" mints. Currently available flavors include "Peppermint", "Arctic Chill", "Spearmint", "Shiver Mint", "Vanilla Frost", "Cool Frost", "Wild Winter", "Intense", and "Mint Medley". Dentyne Ice gum should not be confused with

Dentyne Ice mints
.

Outside of the U.S., products available include additional flavors and are packaged differently. In the Southeast Asia markets, for instance, the Dentyne Ice package carries nine gum pellets instead of twelve, and is available in such flavors as "Mentholyptus" (extremely strong, similar to coughdrop mint flavor), "Midnight Mint", (a version of "Arctic Chill"), and Cherry (similar to a cherry mouthwash flavor.)

Dentyne Fire

Dentyne Fire "Spicy Cinnamon" is a cinnamon-flavored sugarless gum. Dentyne Fire gum should not be confused with

Dentyne Fire mints
. Spicy Cinnamon is the flavor most similar to the original Dentyne Gum.

Dentyne Pure

Dentyne recently introduced Dentyne Pure, which claims to neutralize bad breath odors caused by bacteria and food.

Dentyne Tango

Dentyne Tango "Mixed Berry" comes in purple packaging and is fruit-flavored, not mint.

Dentyne Shine

A new Dentyne spinoff product, Dentyne Shine was introduced in Canada for 2009 as the Dentyne version of Trident White whitening gum.

Dentyne Mints

Dentyne Mints are a brand of

breath mint manufactured by Cadbury Adams, a division of Cadbury-Schweppes
. The mints are produced in two flavors: Ice (mint flavored) and Fire (cinnamon flavored). The form is a white (Dentyne Ice Mints) or red (Dentyne Fire Mints) pillow shape (slightly rounded square with rounded top and bottom). The mints are plain, with no printing or embossing.

Dentyne Mints are packed in a plastic box in the form of a rectangular solid with corners slightly rounded (along the X and Y axes only). Along the top of the top is a square hole with a sliding cover. Sliding this cover away from the hole allows access to the mints. The box uses no hinges. 50 mints are contained in each package.
