FAQs
Is this a normal mouthwash?
No. It is a medicated oral treatment for pain and inflammation, not a daily fresh-breath mouthwash.
Can I use it after dental treatment?
It may be suitable for short-term discomfort after dental work, but follow the label and ask for advice if symptoms are severe or persistent.
When should I seek help?
Seek dental, medical or pharmacy advice if pain, swelling, fever, ulcers or throat symptoms are severe, persistent or worsening.
