Pharmacodynamics.
Maraslavin® is a combination of rosin preparations for dental stagnation in dentistry. It has antiseptic, disinfectant, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, astringent, local anesthetic and regenerative effects. When the drug is locally infused into the kidney, hyperemia of the soft tissues is prevented and exudation is promoted. The presence of ammonium chloride in a hypertonic concentration leads to a decrease in exudation, the removal of toxic substances from periodontal guts, and stimulates renal processes. As a result of the fibrous action, the course of treatment prevents an increase in collagen fibrils and their strengthening, meaning a decrease in swelling and bleeding. Regular use of the drug Maraslavin® after complete removal of tartar and root surface removal removes the unpleasant odor from the mouth. The drug reduces sensitivity in case of exposed teeth and lowers the pH of acidic acid, acting bacteriostatically on the fusospirilous microflora of the oral cavity.

- with prolonged use, gum bleeding decreases, the mucous membrane becomes denser and adheres better to the cervical area of the teeth.
The drug relieves gum inflammation well
“When I had bad breath, I first tried to remove it with different pastes and rinses. Nothing really helped. I thought there was something wrong with my stomach, and then I went to the dentist and it turned out that it was all about deposits under the gums. I didn't even notice them in the mirror. We diagnosed the initial stage of periodontitis. I underwent ultrasonic cleaning and was prescribed rinsing with Maraslavin. After about a week, a little less, your gums began to look much better. The smell is completely gone."
Yuri, from correspondence on the forum www.32top.ru
Rinsing with the solution protects against further spread of infection, helps to reduce gum pockets and level the gum level. "Maraslavin" also prevents the appearance of pathological mobility of teeth and their loss.
Reviews
Vladimir Fedorovich, Moscow. As an experienced dentist, I have been prescribing Maraslavin to my patients for quite some time. I consider the local remedy especially valuable for the treatment of chronic periodontal disease with purulent exudate. Therapy helps prevent surgery.
Yuri, Vladivostok. I had bad breath, I struggled with the problem for a long time, I used expensive toothpastes and magic elixirs for rinsing, but there was no effect. And then the dentist discovered periodontal disease. Therapy with Maraslavin saved me not only from bad breath, but also from tooth mobility. Thanks to the author of the wonderful remedy, and to the dentist for the correct treatment.
Katerina, Novosibirsk. After removing the tartar, the doctor prescribed rinsing with Maraslavin three times a day. I bought one bottle for the course, it was enough, but I had to suffer from the terrible taste of the solution, I remembered it for a long time. However, this is a small price to pay for recovery.
Oleg, Peter. I became friends with Maraslavin during the eruption of my wisdom teeth. To reduce pain and inflammation, the dentist prescribed rinses for me. I diluted the suspension in water according to the instructions and rinsed my mouth after eating. I had to put up with the unpleasant smell, but the treatment was short-lived. Now I use the product for preventive purposes so that my gums no longer become inflamed.

In what cases are rinses prescribed - indications for use
The drug is prescribed for various pathological processes in the gums and periodontal tissues - inflammatory and destructive in nature. Among the main indications, experts identify stomatitis, gingivitis, periodontitis and periodontal disease. Let's consider some clinical cases of using the composition for periodontal disease.
Hemorrhagic form of periodontal disease
Characteristic signs of this form are severe bleeding of the gums, their swelling and soreness. Over time, the disease causes tooth mobility. Against the background of its development, shallow gingival pockets with subgingival deposits and a slight release of exudate are formed. In this case, rinsing with Maraslavin has the following effect:
- reduce pain,
- reduce swelling,
- stop bleeding.
The product relieves swelling and bleeding.
The solution helps to restore a tight fit of the gums to the cervical area of the teeth, as well as significantly reduce gum pockets and prevent the appearance of purulent processes.
Periodontal disease, including pyorrhea
With the purulent form of periodontal disease, a large number of pockets appear at once, filled with purulent exudate and hardened deposits. After starting to use the solution, the intensity of the discharge of purulent masses initially increases, but then the therapy leads to its decrease until the pathological process is completely eliminated.
The drug also helps with periodontal disease
How is the treatment carried out?
As mentioned above, a solution for gum inflammation and for antibacterial treatment of mucous membranes is prescribed for various pathological conditions. In this case, the product is indicated both for independent use at home and for therapeutic procedures in a dental clinic.

Instructions for professional therapy at the dentist
When a dentist performs a procedure, he acts according to the following scheme:
- first, the doctor performs mechanical treatment of the supra- and subgingival area throughout the entire dentition,
- then the specialist places special tampons, previously soaked with a medicinal solution, into the cleaned alveolar pockets. Such lotions are left on for literally 5 minutes, after which they are replaced with new ones. As part of one procedure, 5-6 inserts are usually made - this ensures deep penetration of the active ingredients of the drug into the soft tissues,
- At the end of the session, the tampons are left inside the pockets for another day. These lotions should not be touched with your hands. The doctor schedules a second visit the next day,
- at the next session, the specialist carefully removes the tampons, cleans the pockets of newly formed stone and repeats 5-6 packs of tampons soaked in Maraslavin. The last batch is again left for a day - you will have to visit the dentist the next day, since it is not recommended to remove the lotions yourself.
The specialist moistens the tampon with the drug and places it in the periodontal pocket.
The duration of the course does not exceed 3 months. Over the entire period, at least 17-20 manipulations should be performed. Six months after completing the course, you must visit the specialist again to evaluate the results of the therapy. If necessary, the course is re-assigned.

It is recommended for the patient to be enriched with vitamins and supplemented with vitamins A and C.

Adverse reactions are possible if the outflow of purulent masses from the alveolar cavity is impaired.
