Benefits of Fogum Dental Gel

Treatment of Mouth infection
Whenever there is an overgrowth of microorganisms in our mouth, which are otherwise normally present, it can lead to unpleasant symptoms of mouth infection like ulcers, bad breath, swollen gums, unpleasant taste changes, sensitivity of teeth to hot or cold food/liquid, etc. Fogum Gel kills and prevents the growth of these microorganisms, thereby relieving these symptoms. It also makes teeth stronger and prevents dental cavities. This medicine helps restore your self-confidence and makes you feel better. Practice good oral hygiene, like brushing twice daily and rinsing with antiseptic mouthwash 2-3 times a day, to avoid mouth infections in the future.

Side effects of Fogum Dental Gel

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How to use Fogum Dental Gel

Check the label for directions before use. Gently apply the gel to the affected area inside your mouth. Refrain from eating or drinking immediately after applying the gel.

How Fogum Dental Gel works

Fogum Gel is a combination of two medicines: Chlorhexidine Gluconate and Metronidazole. Chlorhexidine Gluconate is an antiseptic and disinfectant. It works by binding to the surface of teeth, inner cheeks, and gums. This kills the infectious microorganisms that cause gum disease, tartar, and other mouth infections. Metronidazole is an antibiotic that kills bacteria and other infectious microorganisms by damaging the DNA.

  • Fogum Gel is given for the treatment of mouth infection and its associated symptoms such as ulcers and swelling in the gums.
  • Avoid eating, drinking, or brushing your teeth just after using this medication.
  • Do not use Fogum Gel if you have deep oral ulcers or throat infections.
  • Stop using this medicine and inform your doctor if any irritation occurs.
  • If symptoms persist for more than seven days, consult your doctor.
  • Along with using Fogum Gel maintain good oral hygiene by brushing your teeth twice daily with a soft-bristle brush.
