GUM® RED-COTE® Tablets

Getting rid of plaque is really important. This helps keep your mouth healthy, which in turn can have positive benefits for your overall health. But as plaque is usually virtually invisible, it’s not always easy to spot. The good news is that there’s an easy way to find out which parts of your teeth need more brushing or flossing!

Tasty and easy-to-use, GUM RED-COTE Plaque Disclosing Tablets highlight plaque on tooth surfaces.  How it works? Brush your teeth and rinse your mouth with water, then chew one of the cherry-flavored tablets for 30 seconds without swallowing.

The tablet will turn any plaque build-up on the teeth red, making it very easy to spot. You can then brush or floss these areas until the teeth are fully clean.
