  • The efficacy of the drug is attributed to the presence of two antibacterial components:

    a) Metronidazole possesses antibacterial action against anaerobic bacteria implicated in periodontal diseases: Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, Fusobacterium fusiformis, Wolinella recta, Eikenella corrodens, Borrelia vincenti, Bacteroides melaninogenicus, Selenomonas spp.

    b) Chlorhexidine is an antiseptic and antimicrobial agent effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria (Treponema spp., Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Trichomonas spp., Chlamydia spp., Ureaplasma spp., Bacteroides fragilis). Some strains of Pseudomonas spp., Proteus spp. are weakly sensitive to the drug, as well as acid-resistant forms of bacteria and bacterial spores. It does not disturb the functional activity of lactobacilli.

    Upon local application, Metrogyl Dental Gum Gel is practically non-absorbable.
