Herbal Mouthwash with Lime Peel Essential Oil (Citrus aurantifolia)

📝Brief Description & Innovation Novelty Value

This innovation presents a natural herbal mouthwash formula (Lime Mint Mouthwash) that utilizes essential oil from lime (Citrus aurantifolia) fruit peel. It was created as a safe alternative to replace chemical/synthetic mouthwashes on the market, which risk eroding oral cavity tissues if used long-term. Produced through standardized hydrodistillation techniques, this herbal formula is proven effective in fighting oral cavity bacteria that cause cavities (caries) while naturally alleviating gum inflammation (gingivitis). It has passed physical stability tests, temperature resistance tests, and sensory taste tests preferred by consumers.

🌟Benefits for Society & Healthcare System

Supports the maintenance of dental and oral cavity health, eradicates plaque-forming and cavity-causing germs, soothes and relieves gum inflammation, and provides natural fresh breath without carcinogenic preservatives.

🔬Product Specifications & Dosage Form
