About Hox Mouth Wash

Hox Mouth Wash belongs to the group of topical antiseptics with antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties. It is used to relieve mouth irritation that may occur due to canker sores or gum infection (gingivitis). Gingivitis is an inflammation of your gums. Canker sores are small mouth ulcers and shallow lesions that develop in the inner lining of your mouth.

Hox Mouth Wash contains ‘’Hydrogen Peroxide’’ that functions by producing destructive free radicals of oxygen that attack the pathogen’s cell membrane and DNA and thus destroy the pathogen and arrest the progression of the disease.

Hox Mouth Wash is available as a gel and mouthwash. Use it as per the instructions given on the pack. Hox Mouth Wash may cause certain common side effects like irritation, unusual or unpleasant taste in your mouth, dry mouth, and staining of teeth. These side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve with time. However, you should seek medical attention if these side effects are persistent.

Hox Mouth Wash should be avoided if you are allergic to it or any of its contents.

Medicinal Benefits

Hox Mouth Wash is an 'antiseptic' primarily used to treat infections in the mouth, including gingivitis (gum inflammation), dental plaque, denture stomatitis and thrush occurring due to certain harmful microbes like yeast and bacteria.

It effectively kills harmful microorganisms in the mouth that causes dental cavities and relieves mouth irritation caused by gum infections or mouth ulcers and hence, is used as a mouth rinse.
