Delmopinol, a surface-active cationic agent is the key ingredient in Decapinol®. It is able to form a barrier that reduces surface tension on the teeth and gums and inhibits bacterial glycosyl transferases, preventing microbial adhesion and colonisation on their surface, thus hampering the adherence of bacteria and significantly slowing the formation of new plaque without altering the oral bacteria flora.

Decapinol® (delmopinol) inhibits plaque formation by interfering with the process - working at the interface between dental plaque bacteria and the surface of the tooth/gingiva. Decapinol® has a significant effect in reducing plaque and penetrating existing plaque to destabilise it.

Decapinol® prevents plaque adhering to the teeth.

Decapinol® promotes a healthy balance of oral microflora and protects gently and safely against gingivitis. Decapinol® maintains a healthy level of plaque but prevents excessive build up and colonisation by harmful bacteria. This is similar to the pro-biotic approach taken when using pro-biotic lactobacillus-based yoghurts.
