Bonjela Cool Mint Gel – 15g

Bonjela Cool Mint Gel is an oral gel used to relieve the pain and discomfort of common mouth ulcers, cold sores, sore gums, and denture irritation. It provides soothing relief directly at the site of discomfort in the mouth.

How It Works

Bonjela Cool Mint Gel contains choline salicylate, which is a mild pain reliever that works by reducing inflammation and easing soreness when applied to the affected area in the mouth. It also contains cetalkonium chloride, an antiseptic that helps to prevent infection at the site of the ulcer or sore. Together, these ingredients provide fast-acting, targeted relief.
