For Gingivitis "I have been in so much pain and discomfort. I have a problem of serious dry mouth and perhaps Sjogren's. My tongue was always sore and burning and my gums hurt. My dentist gave me this to try and it has been the greatest thing. It didn't give me an unpleasant taste or anything. Just less pain and fresh mouth."

For Periodontitis "Chlorhexidine gluconate 0.12% oral rinse should also be dispensed in half pint bottles as a pint bottle is way too much for patients to use after many dental surgeries. After having dental surgery above an implant of tooth #30 due to an infection & deep pockets, I was instructed to apply 1/2 once twice a day for two weeks to the surgical site with dental sponges provided by my dentist. Following the directions I used 14 ounces out of 32 ounces leaving 28 ounces that I cannot use. Dispensing more than a half pint was: ~ wasteful, ~ costs twice as what is needed, ~ & using or disposing of what is left Is harmful to myself & our environment Dispensing 2x of what is needed is irresponsible & adds to our countries ever rising medical costs"

For Mucositis "I had my teeth pulled and dentures put in right away in December. They are taking their time healing and hurt. Peridex helped me tremendously. My dentist prescribed it. I still have a little an I'm going to call them and get some more prescribed. I tell everyone Peridex and Benzodent are my best friends right now. Lol"

"It was prescribed to help me get gingivitis under control until I can open my mouth wide enough to get a proper cleaning done. I also have very sore jaw muscles from clenching my teeth at night. I find the Peridex flavour much to strong and it makes rinsing my mouth very painful the entire time. People with serious problems in their mouths need mild flavours in the tooth pastes and rinses."
