Composition of the drug
Each component included in the drug is characterized by a distinctive therapeutic effect. Mexidol (active substance) is a powerful antioxidant that quickly stops inflammatory processes and prevents the risk of infection of the soft tissues of the mouth with pathogenic microorganisms. The main component is also characterized by wound healing and immunomodulatory effects.
Another important ingredient in the drug is xylitol, which protects teeth from carious destruction. The substance also normalizes the acid-base balance in the mouth and prevents the active reproduction of pathogenic flora. Mexidol is considered a safe drug due to the moderate concentration of active substances in its composition.
The main difference between the paste and other oral care products is the absence of fluoride and chlorhexidine, which in some cases have a negative effect on the condition of the soft tissues of the mouth and enamel.
Fluoride is especially dangerous for people living in regions with high concentrations of the chemical element. For them, pastes can cause the formation of tartar, yellowing of the enamel or irreversible changes in the structure of the teeth
Therapeutic effect of the drug
The main component of Mexidol paste is used as an antioxidant, membrane protector, and antihypoxant.

Consumer Reviews
Milena, 31. I have been using Mexidol Dent Complex paste for 7 years as prescribed by a doctor. It has therapeutic and prophylactic purposes and has a whole range of therapeutic properties: anti-inflammatory, regenerating, immunomodulatory. After using the drug, bacterial plaque does not appear on the teeth for a long time. In addition, I can always rest assured that my breath will be fresh. The only nuance that the manufacturer of the product did not take into account is the lack of advertising. It produces 5 effective lines of toothpastes, but few consumers know about them.
Svetlana, 19 years old. I have been using Mexidil Sensitive paste for a long time and have no intention of changing it to any other drug. In addition to the paste, I also started using the Mexidol series mouthwash. I cannot confirm the magical effect of the products described on the manufacturer’s website, but the pastes really differ from the advertised oral care products. First of all, this is due to the feeling of smooth enamel and clean teeth throughout the day.
Sergey, 36 years old. I decided to try Mexidol Professional paste. I can’t say that the enamel is significantly whitened, but bacterial plaque after hygiene procedures is removed for a long time and does not appear even in the evening. I believe that high-quality teeth whitening can only be done with the help of dentists and no dental care products can cope with this problem.
