Tips for choosing a rinse aid
If the product is chosen to prevent the appearance of carious formations, then it is better to choose a rinse aid, the main active ingredient of which is amino fluoride or sodium fluoride. In this case, the concentration of fluorine in the solution should not be less than 250 ppm, otherwise the substance will not have the desired effect.
The mouthwash should be used several times a day for one minute at a time. If you purchase a rinse with fluoride, then an excellent addition to it will be toothpaste with calcium, which should be used before using the product: the anti-carious effect in this case will be maximum.
If the composition contains antiseptics (for example, chlorhexidine or others), then you can use this product for a couple of weeks, but no more. By ignoring this recommendation, you can provoke the development of dysbacteriosis and develop an unpleasant odor that will appear after you stop using the product. Rinses with antiseptics in their composition are justified in the treatment of gum diseases (for example, periodontitis or gingivitis), but only after removal of deposits by a doctor.
Mouthwashes with herbal ingredients can be used on an ongoing basis as a prophylactic to prevent gum inflammation.
Some of these products contain alcohol: children under 6 years of age and people driving a car should use this product with caution.

Consumer Reviews
An excellent combination of price and quality, natural composition and effectiveness - these components have brought the Forest Balsam mouthwash great popularity among the population.
Let's see what consumers say:
Ekaterina Plotnik, 39 years old.
My husband had terrible gum problems. This is likely due to the fact that he is a heavy smoker.
Every morning, while brushing his teeth, he spat out bloody saliva. On the advice of the dentist, we bought “Forest Balm” from the “For Bleeding Gums” series and it really helped.
Already on the third use, the husband noted that the gums practically did not bleed. Moreover, its enamel became a little lighter. Now we use the rinse and toothpaste “Forest Balsam” with the whole family.
Elena Gordeychik, 31 years old.
I can’t imagine my morning without a cup of strong black coffee, and my lunch without a big glass of latte.
Unfortunately, my addiction to coffee drinks also affected the condition of the enamel - my teeth became noticeably yellower.
Having secured a whitening toothpaste, I began to look for a suitable rinse and my choice fell on “Triple Effect Whitening” from “Forest Balm”.
I was seduced by the natural and harmless composition. The mouthwash works well - my teeth actually became several shades whiter, and there was practically no plaque left.
I think I will continue to use it even after the whitening course.
Need to use
Incorrect and insufficient oral hygiene leads to the formation of microbial plaque. It consists of accumulations of food debris and bacteria. In the early stages, plaque is soft and can be easily removed with a brush, but if it is not removed, it begins to adhere more tightly to the tooth enamel, gradually turning into tartar.
Deposition of the latter has a negative effect on the gums and causes tissue infections. As a result, microcirculation in the vessels is disrupted and the dentogingival junction is destroyed. Subsequently, a harmless plaque leads to progressive pathological changes - inflammatory processes in bone tissue.
To prevent the development of pathologies, proper oral care should be provided, which includes the following points:
- Cleaning teeth from plaque with a toothbrush daily;
- The use of aids for oral hygiene, including mouthwash;
- Influence the superficial tissues of the gums using massage (gently stroking with a soft toothbrush on the outer side of the gums for three minutes for each jaw).
If the first symptoms appear, as well as to prevent dental plaque, you must take into account the dentist’s recommendations for additional and thorough oral care.
You need to rinse your mouth with auxiliary hygiene products from Forest Balm after each mechanical cleaning of your teeth.
, throughout the course. This will improve the microbiological condition of the oral cavity. Thanks to their properties, the products will complement the effect of regular toothpaste, which means they will improve the microflora of the mouth.
