Pharmacological properties
Maraslavin is a combined medicinal product of phyto-origin and has anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, local anesthetic, disinfectant, astringent, irritating and tissue regeneration stimulating effect.
Pharmacodynamics
At the beginning of the course of therapy, the use of Maraslavin leads to swelling, hyperemia and irritation of the gingival mucosa. Due to the hypertonicity of the drug, toxic decay products are removed from the gum pockets and gum tissue. Soon there is an increase in the number of collagen fibers, an increase in their density, and then a new epithelium is formed, the normal structure of the gums is restored and the strength of the periodontal bond with the cement of the tooth root is enhanced.
During the treatment of the hemorrhagic form of periodontal disease, the swelling and bleeding of the gums decreases, which acquire a pale, and then a pale pink hue at the beginning of therapy and gradually thicken. The gingival papillae become thinner and gradually begin to come into close contact with the tooth neck at the sub-enamel-cement border. Gingival pockets decrease or disappear altogether, and tooth mobility decreases.

There is no information on the pharmacokinetics of Maraslavin.

Instructions for the use of Maraslavin: method and dosage
Maraslavin is applied topically in the oral cavity. Treatment with the drug is carried out by a dentist.
The initial stage of therapy is the removal of supragingival tartar simultaneously with ventilation of the gingival pockets (for this, a stream of clean warm water or a spray bottle is used). Then, loose cotton swabs with the drug are inserted into the bone and gingival pockets using a probe. To do this, 20-25 ml of Maraslavin is poured into a glass container and tampons are abundantly moistened in it, the size of which is selected individually depending on the width of the pockets.
The duration of one procedure is 5-6 minutes. During the first session, 5-6 such procedures are carried out sequentially on each pocket. Each subsequent tampon penetrates deeper and easier into the alveolar pocket. The last tampons are left in the pockets (loose) until the next session. The patient is warned that, due to purulent discharge, subfebrile condition is possible, in this case he should remove the tampons on his own, and then consult a dentist.
During the second session, the tampons remaining after the first session are removed, after which the subgingival tartar is removed. As in the first time, the tampons are injected several times and again leave the last until the next session.
The general course of treatment lasts 3 months. In total, 17-20 sessions are shown, the first 5-6 sessions are carried out with 24-hour breaks, then the intervals are determined by the dentist.
After 5-6 months after the start of therapy, the doctor conducts a control examination of the patient and at least 1-2 times (if necessary, more, depending on the condition of the gums) treats the alveoli with Maraslavin in order to eliminate possible pathogens. A final examination is indicated 12 months after starting treatment.
Side effects
The drug can cause allergic reactions.
If tampons are tightly applied, the outflow of purulent exudate may be disturbed and, as a consequence, the body temperature rises to 37.9 ºС (it normalizes on its own after removing the tampons).

Reviews about Maraslavin
Numerous reviews about Maraslavin are mostly positive. Patients note the naturalness of the preparation containing phytocomponents and the absence of allergic reactions.

When treating tartar, the remedy well removes gum inflammation, but some people do not like the specific smell and taste of the solution. Sometimes patients claim that they did not notice much improvement in their condition.
