Stomatofit - instructions and application

Stomatofit: properties and composition of the drug

Stomatophyte is obtained from plants using ethyl alcohol at a concentration of 70%. The rinse contains oak bark, arnica, chamomile flowers, sage, mint, thyme, calamus rhizomes.

The mouthwash is available in bottles of 50 and 100 ml. The liquid has a characteristic brown tint and is often opalescent. Sediment may form from the herbs, which can be easily removed by shaking.

Mechanism of action

The components of the rinse have astringent, tanning and anti-inflammatory properties. Plant components soften and soothe the inflamed oral mucosa, reduce the activity of leukocytes.

Oak bark and essential oils also have antiseptic properties and reduce the amount of pathogenic microflora and fungi. Clinical studies have shown the effectiveness of chamomile and sage against a wide range of microorganisms, as well as fungi of the genus Candida.

Indications for use

Stomatophyte is used for inflammation of various etiologies and localizations:

• inflammation of the gums in various stages of the process,
• serous or purulent periodontitis,
• inflammatory processes of tongue tissues,
• periodontal disease,
• weakness of blood vessels in the mucous membrane and bleeding gums,
• pathology caused by the introduction of parasites and the consequences of sexually transmitted diseases,
• candidiasis of the mucous membrane.

Contraindications

• Hypersensitivity to any component of the drug.
• Age up to 12 years.

Application diagram

Before use, shake the rinse aid to remove sediment. Then 5 ml of the product is diluted in 40-50 ml of boiled water at room temperature. Rinse the mouth for at least 30 seconds 3-4 times a day. The drug is prescribed for 10 days, the course can be extended.

Disadvantages of the product

The rinse has a good anti-inflammatory effect, but is not used independently. The drug is prescribed for complex treatment after preliminary sanitation of the oral cavity and removal of tartar.

It is undesirable to use the drug for more than two weeks due to the alcohol it contains. Ethyl alcohol has an irritating effect and dries out the mucous membrane. This leads to a decrease in saliva production and a change in the acidity of the oral cavity. A decrease in acidity leads to dysbiosis and aggravation of the inflammatory process. It is not recommended to use Stomatofit as a prophylactic agent between exacerbations of chronic oral diseases.

Stomatofit Fresh

The product is additionally used after dental hygiene. The plant components of the drug prevent the development of inflammation and slow down the growth of pathogenic bacteria, and tanning agents promote the healing of minor injuries. In addition, the rinse does not contain alcohol or artificial antiseptics, so it can be used continuously as an additional hygiene product.

Composition and properties of components:

• Sodium fluoride slows down the development of carious lesions and helps increase the thickness of the enamel; in addition, this component has antiseptic properties.
• Essential oils, especially sage and thyme oils, have anti-inflammatory and emollient properties. Peppermint oil and menthol mask the unpleasant odor.
• Xylitol allows you to balance the content of acids and alkalis in the oral cavity, which reduces the rate of reproduction of pathogenic bacteria and the likelihood of dental caries.

Directions for use: rinse your mouth after brushing for 30-60 seconds. After rinsing, it is advisable not to drink for about an hour. The greatest benefit will come from simultaneous use of pastes with added calcium. The combination of sodium fluoride and calcium-containing paste makes it possible to double the anti-caries effect of the mouthwash.

The product is contraindicated for children under 14 years of age.

The price of the rinse aid is 130 rubles.

Stomatofit Fresh for children

The drug is intended for use after the age of 6 years. The product does not contain dyes or other components that Stomatofit Fresh for adults contains as stabilizers.

The composition of the product is similar to Stomatofit Fresh:

• Sodium fluoride 227 ppm protects tooth enamel from caries and helps reduce the number of pathogenic microorganisms.
• Xylitol helps bring the pH of the oral cavity back to normal, which also helps slow down the growth of bacteria and reduces the amount of plaque.
• Essential oils have an anti-inflammatory effect, and menthol freshens breath.

Directions for use: rinse the mouth 1-2 times a day after brushing your teeth with calcium-containing pastes. Using a measuring cap, measure out 5-10 ml of the product and rinse the mouth for 1 minute. After the procedure, do not drink or eat for 1 hour. In addition, it is not advisable to rinse your mouth with water after using Stomatofit Fresh.

Reviews from experts about the children's mouthwash from the Stomatofit line are positive. During use, make sure that the child does not swallow the rinse aid. The price of the product is about 125 rubles.

Rinse aid “Stomatofit Fresh” –

Stomatofit Fresh is a mouth rinse solution that helps strengthen teeth and gums and give fresh breath.
Can be used in adults and children over 14 years of age. The drug does not contain alcohol, so it is safe for motorists, pregnant and lactating women. For Stomatofit Fresh, the price in pharmacies starts from 130 rubles per 250 ml bottle. The composition of this rinse is very different from previous products in the Stomatofit line of drugs. The composition is broader, but the concentration of medicinal plant extracts here is much lower, which, in principle, makes this drug only a means for the prevention of gum inflammation (but not for treatment), as well as for giving freshness to the oral cavity + strengthening teeth with fluoride.

Composition and release form –

Composition analysis - essential oils, castor oil, thymol have an anti-inflammatory effect. Sodium fluoride strengthens tooth enamel, and xylitol normalizes the acidity of the oral cavity, which ultimately results in an anti-caries effect. In addition, essential oils and menthol help temporarily mask the appearance of bad breath (halitosis).

Directions for use and dosage: rinse your mouth 2 times a day for 1 minute. Does not require dilution with water. Take about 10 ml of the drug into your mouth (rinse for 1 minute, without spitting). Do not swallow. After rinsing, do not rinse your mouth with water. An important point is that you need to use the mouthwash only after brushing your teeth (and during the period of using the mouthwash, it is best to use toothpastes with calcium, without fluoride).

Stomatofit Fresh: reviews

Decent composition, attractive price. Does not contain chemical antiseptics, antibiotics, alcohol, making it suitable for constant use. Sodium fluoride strengthens tooth enamel well and prevents the formation of caries. The anti-caries effect will be higher if you use toothpaste with calcium rather than fluoride before rinsing your mouth.

Essential oils will freshen your breath and also have an anti-inflammatory effect on the oral mucosa, which is important for preventing exacerbation of chronic gum inflammation. Stomatofit Fresh is more suitable as a means for strengthening teeth, creating freshness in the oral cavity, and also for preventing gum inflammation. But the drug is not suitable for the treatment of gum inflammation, because... contains too small concentrations of anti-inflammatory components, which also do not have a noticeable antiseptic effect.
