IGLU Gel is specially formulated with bio-adhesive technology. This is what makes it stick fast over the ulcer, locking in the active ingredients to soothe the pain and fight infection, while creating a lasting shield around and over the sore to protect it from further irritation. This triple action effect helps speed up the healing process.
What are Mouth Ulcers & how does IGLU work?
Mouth ulcers are painful sores that appear in the mouth. Although they're uncomfortable, they're usually harmless and most clear up by themselves within a week or two. IGLU gel when applied to an ulcer sticks to the area and provide a protective shield around the mouth Ulcer.
