Reviews
Natalya, 21 years old: A friend recommended Karavaev balm to me when my son was very capricious due to teething. I was a little scared to use drugs containing lidocaine, but this natural composition fully met my expectations. The baby calmed down immediately after applying Vitaon to his gums, and we finally slept peacefully throughout the night.
Yulia, 27 years old: I constantly get herpetic sores in my mouth, especially after a cold or severe hypothermia, when my immunity sharply decreases. I didn’t want to use chemical ointments often, so I bought Vitaon at the pharmacy and started preparing a solution for rinsing. It disinfects the oral cavity well, and after using it, ulcers from burst blisters heal much faster.
Nina Petrovna, 54 years old: Because of wearing dentures, my gum mucosa regularly became inflamed, turned red and bled. On the advice of a pharmacist, I bought Karavaev balm at the pharmacy. The first week I made lotions using it in its pure form, then I began to regularly rinse my mouth, diluting the product with boiled water. For 4 months now, my gums have not been bleeding, and there is no bacterial plaque at the roots of my teeth, I am happy with the result. I will continue to use this natural remedy.
