Amosan is an oral wound cleanser manufactured in Belgium and sold by Oral-B , a Proctor & Gamble company. It is used to aid in the prevention of as well as speed the recovery from Canker Sores , Denture Irritation , orthodontic irritation, and oral injuries or after dental procedures. It is distributed in a powdered form requiring reconstitution with warm water, after which it is used as a mouthrinse. It is customarily packaged in 1.7g envelopes and sold in boxes of 20 packets each. It was previously very hard to locate for sale in most markets in the US, however this has changed as result of the product being offered for sale at over 5,000 Walgreens drugstores across the country.
A recent double-blind crossover study {Link without Title} has suggested that its use may prevent or retard the colonization and multiplication of anaerobic bacteria, such as those which are known to inhabit oral wounds.
