How it works:
Gelclair is a bioadhesive, non-pharmacologic product that forms a mucoprotective barrier to support healing.1,2
The concentrated oral gel contains polyvinylpyrrolidone and sodium hyaluronate—2 key moisture-retaining, barrier-forming ingredients that help form an adherent layer over oral mucosa lesions to protect sensitive nerve endings and lubricate the tissue.2
