Parodontax is a brand of toothpaste and oral hygiene products that is specifically formulated to help prevent and treat gingivitis and periodontitis. It is known for its unique formulation that includes mineral salts and herbal extracts, which are designed to reduce bleeding gums and improve overall gum health.

History[edit | edit source]

Parodontax was first introduced in 1937 in Germany. The brand was developed by a German dentist who sought to create a toothpaste that could effectively address gum disease, which was a common problem among his patients. Over the years, Parodontax has expanded its product line and is now available in many countries around the world.

Formulation[edit | edit source]

Parodontax toothpaste is distinguished by its high concentration of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), which helps to neutralize acids in the mouth and remove plaque. The toothpaste also contains herbal extracts such as chamomile, echinacea, myrrh, ratanhia, and sage, which have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.
