Product introduction
Stolin Gum Astringent is a topical oral care liquid meant to be dabbed onto troubled gum tissue rather than swallowed. It combines an astringent agent with two antiseptic compounds to calm irritated gums and support the mouth's natural healing response. The formulation is commonly reached for when gums feel tender, swollen, or prone to bleeding during brushing. Because it acts locally at the site of application, it is used as a supportive measure alongside regular dental care rather than as a standalone treatment for underlying gum disease.
Storage: Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Keep the bottle away from direct light and out of reach of children.
