"Every time I bite my cheeks -- which happens fairly often as I am a clumsy chewer -- the injury turns into a painful ulcer lasting a week. I would typically spend about half of my month with them. Aggressive rinsing with other forms of mouthwash could sometimes help a bit. Chlorhexidine gluconate is extremely effective at preventing and healing these ulcers. I can simply use one dose after an injury and never have a problem. If I ignore one long enough to form a small ulcer, two doses a day apart will immediately reverse its course toward healing. Now I never have to live with that mouth pain. I have experienced no side effects."

Chlorhexidine topical "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, and I'm going to call them and get some more prescribed. I tell everyone Peridex and Benzodent are my best friends right now. Lol."

Chlorhexidine topical "I was getting sores in my mouth (bad ones). The Periogard worked quickly, and I use it twice a day. If I forget, my tongue gets sore, and I rinse immediately! It is the most fabulous thing I have found."
