Weleda Ratanhia Mouthwash is a multi-purpose and highly effective product for the care of the mouth and throat. Natural substances, such as pure essential oils, regulate the natural functions of the oral membranes as well as the oral flora to ensure fresh breath without affecting your sense of taste. Extracts from Ratanhia and Myrrh strengthen the gums as well as the oral membranes and protect against inflammation and bleeding gums. This carefully formulated product, made from healing plant extracts and other natural substances, maintains the health of the tooth bed: essential to maintain healthy teeth. The whole oral cavity is refreshed and deodorised. Always remember that the main contributor to mouth ulcers (or any problem on the tongue - swollen, cracked etc) is a lack of Vitamin B Vitamins. It can also show of thrush in the mouth. If this is the case, then a probiotic like the Inner Health Powder may help or a B Complex 50ml

Ratanhia Mouthwash is a concentrated herbal mouthwash made with ratanhia and myrrh, two traditional ingredients used in gum care. Ratanhia is known for its tannins, which give it an astringent feel, while myrrh is commonly used in oral products to soothe and support the gums.
Essential oils such as sage, eucalyptus and peppermint help freshen the mouth and breath, so the formula works on both comfort and freshness. Because it is a concentrate, you dilute a small amount before use, which means the bottle goes a long way. Ratanhia Mouthwash is a good fit when your main focus is gum care rather than just covering up bad breath for a few minutes.
What are ratanhia and myrrh used for in Ratanhia Mouthwash?
They are both traditional gum-care ingredients. Ratanhia is valued for its tightening, astringent feel, and myrrh is commonly used to soothe and support the soft tissues of the mouth.
Why does Ratanhia Mouthwash use essential oils as well?
Sage, eucalyptus and peppermint help freshen the mouth and leave a cleaner aftertaste. They also make the mouthwash more pleasant to use than a formula focused only on herbal extracts.
Is Ratanhia Mouthwash mainly for breath or gums?
It does both, but the stronger point of the formula is gum care. The fresh breath effect is useful, but the plant extracts are what make it more than a simple mint rinse.
