An integral part of daily oral hygiene is brushing your teeth with a brush and toothpaste twice a day.
However, in addition to the use of these products, many dentists insist on the need for regular use of rinses .
Doctors call Parodontax one of the best mouthwashes , a solution intended for the treatment and prevention of gum disease.
Operating principle
Reference! When Parodontax medicinal rinse gets into the oral cavity, the active components of the antiseptic have a detrimental effect on the membrane of harmful bacteria.
This helps remove them from the teeth, gums and inside of the cheeks .
The active ingredients also create a barrier that prevents the development of pathological processes, help thoroughly clean teeth from plaque and strengthen gums.
Using mouthwash alone is not enough to cleanse your mouth.
Without first brushing your teeth, the product will not be able to eliminate inflammatory processes, but will only mask the problem by removing external signs.
Rinse aid composition
Stay up to date! Parodontax antiseptic solutions contain the following components:
- Chlorhexidine is a drug that has antibacterial and disinfectant properties. Chlorhexidine is active against certain strains of bacteria, viruses and yeast. But it is not recommended for long-term use, as it can cause an unpleasant odor and irritation of the mucous membranes and gums. For this reason, the rinse aid should be used for no more than 21 days.
- Sodium fluoride – has a detrimental effect on pathogenic microorganisms, prevents the formation of tartar and effectively protects enamel from destruction.
- Propylparaben and methylparaben - cause the death of pathogens that contribute to the development of caries, and are considered the most harmless of all parabens.
- Sodium saccharinate is a safe artificial sweetener approved for use in all food products.
- Propylene glycol is an organic compound used as a solvent.
- Eugenol is a substance obtained from essential oils with a pronounced clove aroma.
- Castor oil is a natural anti-inflammatory that can eliminate bleeding gums.
- Sorbitol is a sweetener added to give the solution a pleasant sweet taste.
It is worth noting! A feature of Parodontax therapeutic and prophylactic rinses is the absence of alcohol, which dries out and irritates the oral mucosa.

Feedback about use
Below are some customer reviews. If you have something to say, leave your feedback in the comments below the article, it will be useful to our readers.
I have been using Parodontax Classic mouthwash for three years in courses on the advice of a dentist.
The liquid copes well with plaque, reduces bleeding and reduces inflammation. During the procedure, the product burns the gums a little, especially the inflamed areas, but the discomfort quickly passes.
After rinsing, an unobtrusive menthol taste remains in the mouth, which disappears after 5 minutes, the breath becomes fresh, and the teeth are perfectly clean.
In addition to toothpaste and floss, I always use mouthwash. Due to problems with gums, I periodically buy Parodontax Extra to treat inflammatory diseases.
An excellent product that completely eliminates swelling and bleeding. It cannot be used for prevention, as my doctor said.
The taste is not the most pleasant for me, but if you consider this rinse as a medicinal product, then you can tolerate it a little.
Treatment of periodontitis with rinses
Mouth rinses, of course, cannot replace brushing your teeth. However, properly selected high-quality drugs have antimicrobial, antiseptic and antibacterial effects and can quickly relieve unpleasant symptoms of inflammation and heal tissue.
An excellent assistant in the treatment of periodontitis, even in advanced stages, is the unique two-component mouthwash ASEPTA ACTIVE. This combined action product provides instant antiseptic, soothing, antimicrobial effects.
The only rinse with a combination of chlorhexidine + benzydamine, ASEPTA ACTIVE, for the treatment of inflammatory periodontal diseases reduces gum inflammation by 41% and reduces bleeding by 43%.
The use of rinses for periodontitis allows not only to relieve inflammation, but also to prevent further destruction of the periodontium, improve blood circulation in the tissues, and also suppress opportunistic microflora of the oral cavity.

Natural rinses
Decoctions and infusions of medicinal herbs and plants will be excellent helpers in the fight against periodontitis at home. For a therapeutic effect, you should rinse your mouth with fresh infusions up to 4-6 times a day. Here are the most popular recipes.
- Walnut leaves.
Pour 2 teaspoons of leaves into a glass of boiling water, leave for an hour, strain. You should rinse your mouth with the resulting warm infusion up to 6 times a day. - Oak bark
, linden blossom. 20 grams of dry plants should be poured with 1 glass of boiling water and left for 1 hour. You should rinse your mouth with the resulting mixture up to 4 times a day. - Blackberry leaves
, St. John's wort. To create a decoction, pour 3 tablespoons of the dry collection with 1 cup of boiling water and leave the mixture for 2 hours. Then the mixture should be strained, poured into a thermos and rinsed with the resulting warm mixture twice a day. - Calamus root.
To create this very effective rinse, add 0.5 liters of vodka to 100 grams of calamus root and leave the mixture for 2 weeks. Pour 20 grams of propolis into another container and also add 0.5 liters of vodka. The mixture of these two components is infused for two weeks; the resulting composition should be rinsed in the mouth for 2-3 minutes for a month. - Pine rinse.
To prepare it, add 2 tablespoons of washed pine needles to two glasses of water. The infusion should be brought to a boil and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. The decoction should be filtered from the remaining pine needles and used 3 times a day.
Compotes made from cranberries, lingonberries, raspberries, and rose hips will help saturate your gums with useful components and strengthen them. They can also be used to rinse your mouth (up to 4 times a day) or drink in concentrated form in the morning on an empty stomach for 2-3 weeks.
It is important to rinse your mouth with periodontitis with compositions at room temperature. Too cold or hot mouthwash causes cracks in tooth enamel and mucous membranes.
So, now you know which rinses will be effective for periodontitis. Take care of your gums and remember: it is impossible to cure periodontitis solely with rinses. The disease requires careful attention and comprehensive treatment prescribed by an experienced dentist.
