Overview Hexidine Mouth Wash

Hexidine oral rinse treats gum inflammation by eliminating harmful oral bacteria responsible for swelling, tartar buildup, and halitosis. This promotes healing and cleanses the affected area. Always adhere to your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration; complete the entire course even if symptoms improve. Refrain from eating, drinking, or smoking for at least 30 minutes post-rinse. While generally safe with minimal side effects, temporary tooth staining, hard plaque formation, or altered taste may occur. Report any persistent or bothersome side effects to your physician. Although unlikely to interact with other medications, consult your doctor prior to use, especially if you have a history of allergic reactions to similar products.
