FAQs

Senzof Mouthwash belongs to the class of 'anti-cavity agents,' primarily used to prevent dental cavities.
Senzof Mouthwash contains Sodium fluoride, which strengthens tooth enamel. It prevents cavity formation by making the enamel resistant to decay caused by acids and bacteria.
Bacteria, food, acid, and saliva combine in the mouth to form a sticky substance called plaque. The acid in plaque damages the teeth' enamel, leading to cavities. Cavities are caused by various factors, such as bacteria in the mouth, sugary drinks, frequent snacking, and not cleaning the teeth well.
Before using $ name, it is recommended that you inform your doctor if you are suffering from kidney problems, joint pains, stomach ulcers, or mouth problems, such as discolouration of the teeth, mouth sores, or mucositis.
Calcium, magnesium, and aluminium may interfere with sodium fluoride's absorption. Hence, it is better to maintain an hour gap between sodium fluoride formulations and dairy products (milk, yoghurt), antacids, laxatives, and vitamins/minerals.
