GUM® RED-COTE® Tablets | Plaque Disclosing Tablets

Provide patients with a simple solution to the problem of locating virtually invisible plaque build-up and identifying areas that need additional brushing and flossing.

GUM RED-COTE Tablets highlight bacterial plaque on tooth surfaces, making it easy to pinpoint areas that need more attention.

Usage instructions: Rinse mouth with water, then chew the tablet for 30 seconds and spit out and rinse again with water. The plaque disclosing tablet will turn plaque red, making it easy to see which parts of the teeth need extra cleaning. You can then brush or floss these areas until the teeth are fully clean.
