About Gumex Liquid
Gumex is an antiseptic, astringent gum paint from Pharmadent Remedies. It combines iodine, tannic acid and soothing oils such as clove, menthol and thymol.
It is made for people with inflamed, swollen or bleeding gums and mouth ulcers. Vets sometimes suggest a gum paint for pets with mild gum inflammation, alongside dental cleaning. Red, bleeding gums and bad breath in pets often mean dental disease, which needs a vet check.
