About Lidocam Sugar Free Chewable Tablet 15's

Lidocam Sugar Free Chewable Tablet 15's is a combination medicine used to treat gingivitis, mouth ulcers and mouth infections. Gingivitis is gum inflammation caused by bacteria; if left untreated, it can lead to periodontitis (gum infection that damages gums and can destroy the jawbone); this can cause the gum to separate from teeth leading to loss of teeth. Mouth ulcers, also known as canker sores, are small, painful lesions that develop in the mouth or gums' base. Mouth infections occur due to the overgrowth of bacteria in the mouth.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Gingivitis: Gingivitis is periodontal or gum disease with swollen and bleeding gums, which can be caused due to various bacteria; if left untreated can lead to periodontitis and, eventually, loss of teeth. Its signs and symptoms include bleeding from gums, swollen gums, a loose tooth and sometimes foul oral smell.

Mouth ulcers: Mouth ulcers, also known as canker sores, are small, painful lesions that develop in the mouth or at the base of the gums. These can make you uncomfortable while eating, drinking, and talking. Mouth ulcers usually heal within a few weeks and are not contagious. People with a family history of canker sores are more likely to develop mouth ulcers. Minor mouth injury from dental work or hard brushing, acidic foods, lack of essential vitamins, dental braces, emotional stress, and viral, bacterial or fungal infections could be a cause of developing mouth ulcers.

Mouth infections: Mouth infections occur due to the overgrowth of bacteria in the mouth. Symptoms include swollen gums, bad breath, teeth sensitivity, and unpleasant taste changes.
