Product Use
Gingivitis should not be ignored. Corsodyl Treatment Mouthwash is an intensive treatment that’s clinically proven to help treat the early signs of gum disease, (gingivitis). It’s important to act fast to treat the symptoms of gingivitis, like bleeding, red or swollen gums. This can help stop it from developing into the irreversible second stage of gum disease, periodontitis, which can, eventually, cause tooth loss.
It is designed to be used as a short-term solution alongside a good daily oral care routine. You may also use it to help gums heal after dental surgery.
Instructions
Adults: thoroughly rinse the mouth for about 1 minute with 10ml twice daily. For gingivitis, use for one month. For ulcers and oral candidal infections, use for 48 hours after the infection has cleared. Children: should only be used on the advice of a medical professional.
Cautions
Because of the way chlorhexidine forms a protective layer across the teeth and gums to help prevent new plaque from forming, some temporary discolouration can occur on the teeth and tongue.
In the majority of cases this can be removed by brushing, and will disappear once the treatment has stopped.
Discolouration usually occurs when certain foods and drinks such as tea, coffee and red wine are consumed within an hour of using the mouthwash. Other sources such as beer and cigarettes cause staining but are not associated with chlorhexidine digluconate in Corsodyl.
