Mainly
due to the presence of bacteria plaque the gums may present
inflammation symptoms such as tumefaction, bleeding,
pain. These symptoms may be efficiently treated by means
of persistent brushing with GINGIVIT, a toothpaste specially
formulated for gums weakened by the periodontal disease.
The active principles of GINGIVIT are Aluminum Lactate at
1%, and 2, 4, 4, trichloride-2-hydroxy-definil-ether (triclosan)
at 0,2%. The first one belongs to the astringent category,
and acts precipitating the proteins. It has a low penetrability
when locally applied, maintaining its action on the cellular
surface and on the interstitial spaces. The astringent action
is accompanied by tissue contraction and crumpling. The cementing
substance of the capillary endothelium gets hard so the pathological
transcapillary movement of plasmatic proteins decreases,
thus reducing the edema, transudation and local inflammation.
Triclosan is a broad spectrum antibacterial agent with action
over gram positive bacteria such as streptococcus, clostridium,
lactobacillus and styphylococcus, even over those stumps
resistant to penicillin and meticillin, and gram negative
bacteria like E. coli, Haemophilus, klebsiellas, and salmonellas,
among others; it also has a strong action against fungus
like candida, aspergillus, microsporum and more.
It also has anti-inflammatory properties by acting as inhibitor
of the prostaglandins synthesis.
Slight but frequent hemorrhages of affected gums are controlled
by the styptic action of GINGIVIT, which coagulates the blood,
plugs the capillaries, reduces inflammation and maintains
free from bacterial attack the affected region. Each brushing
with GINGIVIT constitutes and antiseptic oral rinse of great
help.
Due to the tetrasodium pyrophosphate present in its formula,
GINGIVIT acts dissolving the tartar and eliminating the bacterial
plaque, therefore, it attacks the primary cause of the problem.
Daily brushing with GINGIVIT progressively cleans the plaque,
eliminating inflammation and improving buccal cavity general
condition. GINGIVIT also has the exact quantity of sodium
phosphate monofluoride to rapidly and effectively strengthen
the dental enamel against the action of acids causing cavities. |
