Treatment Information
Overview
Corsodyl 1% W/W dental gel is designed to treat gum problems in your mouth efficiently and immediately. It is an effective medication to cure and prevent gum disorders like bleeding, swollen and red gums.
Corsodyl dental gel is clinically recommended in the fight against the first form of gum disease known as gingivitis. If gingivitis is not treated in the first stage, it may get into the second form of gum disease known as periodontitis, which may result in tooth decay.
Corsodyl 1% W/W dental gel contains an active component of 1% Chlorhexidine Digluconate which acts instantly to eliminate the plaque-causing bacteria within 30 seconds. It also builds a protective antibacterial barrier covering the gums and teeth that lasts for 12 hours and prevents plaque formation.
Directions
The effect of corsodyl dental gel can be reduced with toothpastes; therefore, avoid using this gel soon after brushing. At least wait for 10 to 15 minutes after brushing.
Take a small amount of gel on the tip of your finger and apply on the sore areas for at least one minute twice a day. Continuous use is recommended for 2 days unless complete healing has been achieved. Always seek advice from your doctor before using Corsodyl Dental Gel.
