The Curasept Gel Toothpaste 0.12% Chlorhex – 75ml (ADS712) is a specialized, non-staining, and SLS-free toothpaste designed to treat gum inflammation and prevent plaque build-up.
Product Details & Key Features
- Active Ingredient: Contains 0.12% Chlorhexidine Digluconate, a powerful antibacterial agent that adheres to the gums and teeth for up to 12 hours, providing prolonged protection against harmful bacteria associated with gum disease.
- Anti-Discolouration System (ADS): Features a patented, clinically tested Anti-Discolouration System that minimizes the common side effects of chlorhexidine use, such as the formation of brown or yellow stains on the teeth, gums, or tongue.
- SLS-Free Formulation: The gel is free from Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS), a common foaming agent in most toothpastes that can deactivate chlorhexidine’s efficacy and potentially irritate oral mucosa.
- Other Benefits: It is also alcohol-free (minimizing irritation and dry mouth) and contains xylitol, a natural sweetener that inhibits the growth of bacteria that cause tooth decay.
- Recommended Use: Ideal for patients with orthodontic appliances, gum irritation (gingivitis, periodontitis), or for use as a supplement to Curasept ADS mouthwashes, typically for a period of up to one month.
