A novel and organic innovation to aid oral home care.

Using a patented method, the natural occurring sugar-content of the lingonberry juice has been reduced by fermentation to a safe level for oral use and does not contain additives. Due to its organic nature, it may also be swallowed. Fermented lingonberry mouthwash protects the oral mucosa from environmental and oxidative stress and is beneficial for oral health. It prevents inflammation of the gums and assists the healing of gum disease. It also reduces the symptoms caused by mouth dryness by increasing saliva secretion.
