| Product Description |
If you've got a painful mouth ulcer, brace sore or denture sore, we can help you out! Bonjela's ingredients tackle your mouth ulcer / mouth sores in three ways:
- Relieves pain through the analgesic contained in the product
- Reduces the swelling through its anti-inflammatory properties
- Helps to fight infection via the antibacterial which helps kill bacteria. It is particularly important to have an active ingredient that will help fight infection in mouth ulcers where there is an open 'wound'
The active ingredients in Bonjela absorb into your gum so they can get to work almost straight away, even though it might seem like some of the gel slips off. So you can get fast-acting relief from your mouth pain.
Always read the label.

Q. Is there any added sugar in Bonjela or Bonjela Teething Gel?
A. No, all these medicines are sugar-free.
Q. I have heard that Bonjela gel contains aspirin. Is this correct?
A. No, Bonjela gel contains choline salicylate and although both choline salicylate and aspirin are derivatives of salicylic acid, they are distinct chemical entities with different properties. Choline salicylate is not aspirin and is not associated with Reye's syndrome so the warnings on aspirin use in children do not apply to Bonjela gel.
Q. Is there any alcohol in Bonjela?
A. Bonjela contains alcohol (ethanol), which is sourced from grain.
Q. Is anise oil a nut and can I use Bonjela if I have a nut allergy?
A. There are no nut ingredients in Bonjela. Anise is not botanically related to nuts.
Q. Does Bonjela contain any animal products?
A. There are no animal ingredients in Bonjela. The glycerol in the product has been vegetable based since February 2002.
