GUM® RED-COTE® Tablets - Easy Plaque Detection with Disclosing Tablets

Removing plaque is essential for a healthy mouth, and has positive benefits for overall health. But plaque is usually virtually invisible!

Tasty and easy-to-use, GUM RED-COTE Plaque Disclosing Tablets highlight plaque on tooth surfaces and help identify areas that need extra brushing and flossing attention. And are actually very easy to use: rinse your mouth with water. Then chew a cherry-flavoured tablet for 30 seconds, spit out and rinse again with water.
The tablet turns any plaque build-up on the teeth red, making it easy to spot. Then brush or floss these areas until teeth are fully clean.
