All about toothpastes "Forest Balsam"

Not a single day is unthinkable without toothpaste, therefore choosing it, searching for the best composition and optimal properties are quite understandable activities. It happens that you have to switch from familiar brands to other products. And in the search for manufacturers, domestic brands with a competitive product, for example, Forest Balsam, can also be considered.

Any toothpaste is dense homogeneous jelly-like mass, consisting of fluorine, flavorings, and also an abrasive. This is the base of any paste. It is needed to soften the friction of the brush on the teeth, because in fact it is the brush that dominates the cleaning process. But if there was no paste, the brush would chip off, deform the enamel of the teeth. Of course, it's not just about cleaning. The paste helps to heal the gums, fight bad breath, etc.

Lesnoy Balsam is one of the most famous brands of this sanitary and hygienic product on the Russian market.... It is engaged in the production of prophylactic and therapeutic toothpastes, mouth rinses, and also produces brushes for adults and adolescents.

The basis of Lesnoy Balsam products is herbal decoction, which is patented by the company. It is created from extracts of coniferous extracts, as well as herbal ingredients that have pronounced antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. The product passed more than one test before it appeared on store shelves.

The brand produces two types of toothpastes: natural and chemical. Natural ones are suitable for children who are not yet 7 years old.Nevertheless, babies can inadvertently swallow the paste, which is why it is a natural product that is recommended to them. The composition of such a paste is softer both for the body and for the teeth. For example, children's pasta "Forest balsam", recommended for use by children two years of age and older, almost half consists of aloe juice, and also contains magnolia extract. There is no fluoride in natural paste, as it can hypothetically act as an allergen.

Chemical pastes, which are used by most people on the planet, have, in addition to the cleaning effect, additional functions: whitening, fighting caries, gum therapy, etc. The main component of a chemical type of paste is fluoride, it is they who protect the enamel from caries.

The main fluorides in the paste are sodium and amine. Also in the composition of the hygienic product - protective enzymes, they enhance the properties of natural human saliva, help protect the oral cavity from bacteria. As a result, they act as a prevention of dental calculus.

Also in the paste "Forest Balsam" there is an abrasive element, without which it would be difficult to qualitatively remove plaque and remove food residues. Usually, either silicon dioxide or calcium carbonate is added to the composition as an abrasive.

An indispensable component of modern pasta is therapeutic and prophylactic inclusions. These are oils and plant extracts that moisturize, heal, and promote regeneration. For example, in the sample "Triple effect" chamomile extract suppressing the activity of bacteria is used, as well as sea buckthorn oil, which has a soothing effect on the gums.

Among the essential elements of a chemical-type paste are preservative additives that can prolong the life of the product. Flavors add a pleasant taste to the paste and mask halitosis. Essential oils are considered to be the most common flavoring agents for Forest Balsam.

It is wiser to ask your dentist what exactly to use as the best toothpaste. And this is not for determining the brand, but for choosing the type of paste recommended for use.

We will find out to whom which composition is shown.

• for each "Forest Balsam" product, you can pick up a rinse aid in the kit, which enhances the effect of the main product;
• in recent years, the product line has been replenished with samples with ingredients that help restore enamel, and Forest Balsam has enough such proposals;

There is a lot of information on thematic forums about pastes, rinses, brushes, threads and other products that preserve dental health.

Here are the most frequent statements about Lesnoy Balsam products:

• the brand has a wide range, some names have never been heard of before, and they are no worse than popular Western brands;
• pleases with a coniferous aroma with interesting notes, it is recommended to everyone who is tired of mint and lemon in taste;
• baby paste that changes color during foaming is just TOP, children run to the bathroom and thoroughly clean their teeth;
• a charcoal-based product is a new word in bleaching, at least for the mass user;
• the prices are pleasant, you can buy a product for the whole family and not leave all the money in the store;
• stylish packaging pleases the eye.

Negative reviews, which, of course, also exist, do not have such a generalizing character. Someone can not stand the coniferous aroma, to someone it seemed uneconomical expenditure of funds. But after all, not all people know how to properly brush their teeth - and squeeze the paste onto the brush with a generous layer (as in advertising of the 90s), and after all, a small fragment of the composition is enough for cleaning, which increases when mixed with water. Therefore, some claims cannot be called objective.
