About Lidocam Oral Rinse Mouthwash 120 ml

Lidocam Oral Rinse Mouthwash 120 ml is a combination medicine used to treat gingivitis, mouth ulcers and mouth infections. Gingivitis is gum inflammation caused by bacteria; if left untreated, it can lead to periodontitis (gum infection that damages gums and can destroy the jawbone); this can cause the gum to separate from teeth, leading to loss of teeth. Mouth ulcers, also known as canker sores, are small, painful lesions that develop in the mouth or gums' base. Mouth infections occur due to the overgrowth of bacteria in the mouth.

Lidocam Oral Rinse Mouthwash 120 ml contains Benzoxonium chloride and lidocaine. Benzoxonium chloride is an antiseptic that suppresses the growth of microorganisms in the mouth, thus preventing infections. Lidocaine provides numbing effects and helps in reducing pain sensation.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Choose foods high in protein. Examples of protein-rich soft foods include ground meats, eggs, cottage cheese, yoghurt, custard, beans, lentils, and smoothies.
  • Consume modest, regular meals. It may be easier for you to consume fewer portions at a time.
  • Drink through a straw. This can assist in moving foods past the unpleasant sores in your mouth.
  • Every day, drink at least 8-10 eight-ounce glasses of water. Drink fluids in between meals.
  • Citrus fruits and juices, salty or spicy foods, and acidic foods like tomatoes are all things to avoid if you have mouth sores.
  • Do not consume carbonated or caffeinated beverages, beer, wine, liquor, or any other sort of alcohol.
  • Avoid alcohol. Alcohol can irritate the mouth.
  • Hot foods can induce tongue and throat irritation.
  • Maintain good oral hygiene. Rinse your mouth numerous times every day.
  • Use alcohol-free mouthwash. A painful mouth is exacerbated by alcohol.
  • Use a toothbrush with gentle bristles.
  • Avoid smoking cigars and using tobacco products.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Gingivitis: Gingivitis is periodontal or gum disease with swollen and bleeding gums, which can be caused due to various bacteria; if left untreated can lead to periodontitis and, eventually, loss of teeth. Its signs and symptoms include bleeding from gums, swollen gums, a loose tooth and sometimes foul oral smell.

Mouth ulcers: Mouth ulcers, also known as canker sores, are small, painful lesions that develop in the mouth or at the base of the gums. These can make you uncomfortable while eating, drinking, and talking. Mouth ulcers usually heal within a few weeks and are not contagious. People with a family history of canker sores are more likely to develop mouth ulcers. Minor mouth injury from dental work or hard brushing, acidic foods, lack of essential vitamins, dental braces, emotional stress, and viral, bacterial or fungal infections could be a cause of developing mouth ulcers.

Mouth infections: Mouth infections occur due to the overgrowth of bacteria in the mouth. Symptoms include swollen gums, bad breath, teeth sensitivity, and unpleasant taste changes.
