Colgate PerioGard Elixir Clorexidina is an advanced antibacterial mouthwash that provides intensive protection for gums. Suitable for adults, this alcohol-free solution is specifically formulated to combat dental plaque and support oral health during sensitive periods.
What is Colgate PerioGard Elixir Clorexidina?
Colgate PerioGard is a clinical-grade oral rinse containing Chlorhexidine, an antiseptic gold standard for reducing bacterial load in the mouth. This 300ml elixir is designed for short-term intensive use to manage plaque control and gum inflammation.
What are the benefits?
Antibacterial Protection: Chlorhexidine helps reduce the formation of dental plaque and bacteria.
Gum Health: Specifically aids in the prevention of gingivitis and gum sensitivity.
Alcohol-Free: Provides a gentle rinsing experience without the stinging sensation of alcohol.
Clinical Precision: Supports healing after dental procedures or professional hygiene treatments.
How does it work?
The 0.12% Chlorhexidine digluconate formula binds to oral tissues and dental surfaces, releasing its antibacterial effect gradually over several hours. This mechanism creates a protective shield that inhibits the colonisation of plaque-forming bacteria. By reducing the bacterial count, Colgate PerioGard Elixir helps the gums recover from irritation and prevents further inflammation.
