FAQs

Hexisol Mint Flavour Mouth Wash belongs to the class of medication called oral antiseptic and disinfectant agents used to treat mouth infections, mouth ulcers and gum disease/inflammation (gingivitis).

Hexisol Mint Flavour Mouth Wash  works by destroying the bacteria that cause gum disease, tartar, and other illnesses in the mouth. As a result, it aids in the maintenance of proper dental and oral hygiene.

Gum disease is caused by plaque build-up on the teeth. Plaque is a bacterial-infested sticky substance. Some bacteria in plaque are harmless, but others are hazardous to your gums' health. Plaque builds up on your teeth and hurts your gums if you do not brush them. This might result in redness, bleeding, oedema, and pain.

After using Hexisol Mint Flavour Mouth Wash , avoid eating, drinking, or brushing your teeth for 30-60minutes.

Although you are meant to swish and spit mouthwash, consuming a mouthful is not harmful. If you consume a high amount, you may get alcohol and/or fluoride toxicity. In such instances, go to the nearest hospital immediately.

Read labels carefully and follow the recommendations for use, being sure not to exceed the suggested amount or frequency.

Don't eat or drink for at least 30 minutes after using Hexisol Mint Flavour Mouth Wash . This allows the active compounds time to activate without being rinsed away.
