Forest balm is a Russian brand of teeth and gum care products. The brand belongs to the Kalina concern, which is one of the leading manufacturers of cosmetic and therapeutic products on the domestic market. And in fairness, it is worth noting that the company’s products are generally very loved by domestic consumers, which is confirmed not only by various awards and bonuses (which today, in general, not everyone trusts), but most importantly, by positive reviews of the products.

And for the people, Forest Balm toothpaste is, first of all, a remedy for gum disease. Surely you remember its green packaging, which has become very recognizable, and almost a real national symbol of the brand. The reason for this popularity is very simple: the paste really works. And when a person who has been suffering from bleeding gums for years begins to use it and just a few days later realizes that he no longer spits blood into the sink when brushing his teeth as usual, then this effect speaks in favor of Forest Balm better than any advertising.

It should, however, be borne in mind that today there is a whole set of Forest Balm toothpastes of different types on sale, so before purchasing it will be very useful to first understand how they, in fact, differ from each other, and which option is better to choose. in your case.

It is worth noting that all types of Forest Balm toothpastes contain natural ingredients, and are often recommended by dentists to prevent gum problems.

At the same time, the manufacturer additionally notes the following advantages:

Safety for human health - any Forest Balsam toothpaste maintains the balance of the natural microflora of the oral cavity. This is very important, since, for example, some toothpastes contain such strong antiseptics that not only pathogenic microorganisms are destroyed, but also completely natural ones, which can subsequently lead to the development of oral candidiasis (a disease caused by fungi - essentially the same thrush, only in the mouth).
Comprehensive oral care - even despite the specific focus and specific properties of each product, they all care for the gums, prevent the development of caries and have an antimicrobial effect.
Naturalness - as noted above, any Forest Balsam toothpaste includes natural ingredients (herbal extracts) obtained from natural raw materials. This could be considered a simple advertising ploy (the desire for naturalness is now in fashion), if it did not work so well.
Affordable price - the domestic manufacturer also made sure that a high-quality product could be purchased by people with almost any income.
A large assortment - today there are nine types of Forest Balsam pastes on sale. This point may initially create some confusion, since not everyone immediately understands which paste is best to choose, what the composition of each option is, etc. We'll talk about this in more detail below.

According to reviews from consumers and dentists, the use of Forest Balsam toothpastes can indeed significantly reduce the risk of developing periodontal diseases, neutralize the effect of pathogenic bacteria and, in general, significantly improve the condition of diseased gums. Moreover, these natural toothpastes today are often included in a set of treatment procedures for various periodontal diseases.

Review
“...No matter how they promote various imported products to me, I recommend Forest Balm toothpaste to my patients, since I use it myself and know for sure that it works. And I know that the price is affordable even for pensioners. For mild gum bleeding, I prescribe the combined use of it and mouthwash twice a day, and for severe bleeding, I advise using the mouthwash after every meal during the day. I’ve been working for so many years and my patients are happy.”
