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.
