A 12-hour, alcohol-free mouthwash for bad breath and sensitive teeth
CB12 Sensitive Gums Mouthwash is a 3-in-1, alcohol-free mouthwash that fights the root cause of bad breath for up to 12 hours while also helping with tooth sensitivity. Its core complex of zinc acetate and chlorhexidine diacetate neutralises the volatile sulphur compounds that cause bad breath, arginine helps reduce sensitivity, and sodium fluoride strengthens enamel, all in a soft mint flavour.
How it works
Zinc acetate and chlorhexidine diacetate work together to neutralise the compounds responsible for bad breath at the source, rather than just masking odour with mint. Arginine and fluoride add a sensitivity and enamel-care benefit on top.
Who it suits
- Anyone managing bad breath and sensitive teeth together
- People who want a 12-hour, alcohol-free mouthwash
- Daily oral-care routines, morning and evening
- Adults and children aged 12 and over
Worth knowing before you buy: this mouthwash is recommended from age 12; do not swallow, and stop use if you notice sensitivity to any of the ingredients.
