Corsodyl Dental Gel (50g)

Product Summary

Corsodyl Dental Gel contains 1% Chlorhexidine Digluconate. The active ingredient, chlorhexidine digluconate, acts rapidly (within 30 seconds) to kill the bacteria that cause plaque.

It also forms a protective antibacterial layer over the teeth and gums to prevent plaque build-up for up to 12 hours.
