Why is periodontitis dangerous?

Periodontal tissues include not only the gums, but also the surface layer of the tooth root, the ligamentous apparatus, and the bone walls of the socket. All these tissues perform support-retaining, shock-absorbing, trophic, nutritional, and barrier functions. Inflammation of periodontal tissues provokes disruption of the intergingival junction, which causes loosening and tooth loss.

If not treated in a timely manner, periodontitis can lead to intoxication of the body, and, consequently, diseases of the cardiovascular system, infection of bone tissue, and the development of osteomyelitis.

Instructions for use

1. Initially, you should remove the protective cap from the bottle and apply 1-2 presses until the foam appears.
2. Then it is recommended to wipe your hands with a damp cloth to remove dust and other dirt from them.
3. Shake the bottle.
4. Place the “spout” of the dispenser into the oral cavity and make 2 to 4 presses. The bottle should be held vertically. The amount of foam in the mouth should be enough to perform a high-quality “cleaning”.
5. Carry out manipulations similar to rinsing your teeth with water for 5 seconds. The product should also be “strained” between the teeth.
6. Spit out the remaining foam.
7. Close the bottle with a protective cap.

It is recommended to carry out manipulations after each meal. No additional use of a toothbrush or rinsing the mouth with water is required (rinsing the mouth with water, on the contrary, can reduce the effectiveness of the foam).
