- Biotène Moisturising Gel 50g
Biotène Moisturising Gel is specially formulated for people experiencing dry mouth, also known as xerostomia.
Dry mouth occurs when there is not enough saliva to keep the mouth comfortably moist. It can cause symptoms such as a persistent dry or sticky feeling, discomfort and difficulties with speaking or swallowing.
Biotène contains a mouth-moisturising system that refreshes and moistens oral tissues, helping soothe and protect a dry mouth against discomfort while supporting a healthy oral environment.
The gel can be particularly convenient when longer-lasting moisturisation is wanted, including before bedtime or when dry-mouth symptoms occur during the night.
To use, place approximately 1–2cm of gel directly onto the tongue and spread thoroughly around the inside of the mouth.
Use as often as required.
Biotène Moisturising Gel is sugar free and alcohol free.
Always follow the directions on the packaging. If dry-mouth symptoms persist, speak to a dentist, pharmacist or doctor as persistent dry mouth may have an underlying cause.
