The trusted choice for Healthier Gums
Powered by 0.2% Chlorhexidine1
Parodontax® 0.2% Chlorhexidine Mouthwash delivers intensive antimicrobial plaque control through the proven efficacy of 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate. At this concentration, chlorhexidine exerts rapid broad-spectrum bactericidal activity by disrupting bacterial cell membranes and reducing the viability of plaque biofilm bacteria within seconds of rinsing. Its effectiveness against the microorganisms associated with plaque accumulation and gingival inflammation has established 0.2% chlorhexidine as the gold standard adjunct in management of gingivitis and periodontal care. 8,9,10
Following rinsing, chlorhexidine adsorbs on to oral tissues & tooth surfaces, creating a reservoir of active antimicrobial agent that is gradually released over time. This provides up to 12 hours of sustained antimicrobial activity, helping suppress bacterial recolonisation between brushing episodes. For patients with gingival inflammation, periodontal disease, or those recovering from dental procedures, twice-daily use offers prolonged biofilm control and supports improved gum health when enhanced plaque management is required. 8,9,10
Not all chlorhexidine formulations are the same
In a 5-week randomised study, chlorhexidine 0.2% w/v Mouthwash was more effective at inhibiting plaque growth when compared with another commercial 0.2% chlorhexidine solution with an anti-staining agent.2
