Routine Gargling Starting Now, to Avoid Respiratory Infections

"Dream - Ramadan is right in front of us, problems like bad breath, canker sores, and dry throat are often experienced by Muslims who are fasting."

Sahabat Dream know, do you know that if the problem can be risky in causing Upper Respiratory Tract Infection (ISPA) if left untreated.

"The respiratory tract infection (ISPA) in Indonesia itself continues to increase from year to year. In 2023, there were 1.5 million to 1.8 million reported cases, with the majority occurring in Jakarta and Banten. This number increased by 60% from the previous year. On average, ISPA is caused by pollution and interpersonal contact. The more often someone meets other people or gathers in crowds, the greater the risk of contracting ISPA."

Other causes are the lack of oral health care, resulting in the accumulation of bacteria in the respiratory tract, especially the throat. The symptoms of acute respiratory infections (ISPA) can include dry or phlegmy cough, runny nose or mucus, stuffy nose, pain when swallowing, swollen tonsils, red throat, and fever.

Routine Gargling

ISPA can be prevented preventively by neutralizing acidic pH, preventing bacteria, and maintaining oral health and cleanliness.

The preventive action can be done by Sahabat Dream in a simple way, which is brushing teeth twice a day and gargling. "The habit of gargling is highly recommended because it has been proven to prevent upper respiratory tract infections (URTI). This habit has been practiced by the Japanese community to prevent influenza and URTI and has been proven to reduce URTI incidence by 36%," said Dr. Rangga Saleh, an ENT specialist.

What is Gargling?

Gargling is often equated with rinsing. However, these two things are slightly different. When rinsing, the mouthwash liquid only circulates in the oral cavity. The focus is on maintaining dental and gum health.

"If you want to maximize and prevent respiratory diseases, Sahabat Dream can do gargling with mouthwash liquid that reaches the upper throat part of the vocal cords, so in addition to cleaning the mouth, this activity also helps clean and refresh the throat."

The benefits obtained from gargling regularly are very positive. Such as maintaining oral health and moisture, helping to neutralize throat acid produced by bacteria, helping to maintain the pH balance of acid in the mouth, helping to eliminate mucus buildup in the respiratory tract and nasal cavity, removing bacteria that cause bad breath, and reducing the risk of various oral problems.

Gargling can be done at least 2 times a day, after breakfast and before bed, like brushing teeth. The correct way to gargle is to tilt your head back for 45 seconds and exhale for 30 seconds.

Liquid for Gargling The liquid used for gargling should not be arbitrary. Look for one that contains antibacterial, antifungal, non-alcohol, and has a normal pH according to the oral cavity.

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "Liquid mouthwash containing alcohol can injure the mouth and throat, and even cause cancer. One of the liquids that you can use for gargling is the Antibacterial Mouthwash Clean & Fresh from Klarens."

"KLARENS launches KLARENS Antibacterial Mouthwash Clean & Fresh with 4 complete protections of Propolis, Zinc, Xylitol, and NaCl to provide 10 benefits at once. It also moisturizes and does not cause dry mouth, and has a balanced pH of 6-6.5.
