                                                        Mouth Wash

 A Mouthwash is a mixture of water and glycerine with additional sweetener, surfactant, preservative, and some colorant and flavoring agent, as well as typically having two oral health ingredients, anticaries sodium fluoride and antimicrobial. Mouthwash can help fight tooth decay and prevent cavities in addition to fighting plaque and gingivitis and freshening breath. Your oral health can be significantly improved by Mouthwash. Fluoride-containing Mouthwashes can even aid in the remineralization of your teeth. There are three primary categories of Mouthwashes: antiseptic, plaque-inhibiting, and preventative.

Antiseptic Mouthwash: One of the most frequently prescribed antiseptics in oral healthcare is Mouthwash with a 0.2% concentration of chlorhexidine. They act on bacteria, spores, and fungi, and have long been regarded as the gold standard among oral antiseptic Mouthwashes. A biofilm known as plaque is created by colonizing bacteria.

Plaque-inhibiting Mouthwash: The active ingredients in plaque-inhibiting Mouthwashes range from antimicrobials (such as cetylpyridinium chloride) to substances that stop bacteria from sticking to tooth surfaces (such as the amine alcohol delmopinol hydrochloride) to essential oils (such as thymol, eucalyptol, and menthol combined with methyl salicylate).

Preventative Mouthwash: Fluoride-containing Mouthwashes are the most popular Mouthwashes with a primary preventive function because they can help prevent tooth decay and, in some cases, help reverse early lesions of caries.

Some people include Mouthwash in their daily oral hygiene regimen. But, Mouthwash can also be used as a last resort to eliminate foul breath. When to use Mouthwash for foul breath truly doesn't have a clear and fast rule. Nevertheless, unless you use it immediately following brushing and flossing, it won't help to improve tooth enamel or cure gum disease. Before using Mouthwash, teeth should be freshly brushed for best perks. Children under the age of six should not use Mouthwash unless a dentist advises them to. Children this young may not have fully developed swallowing reflexes, causing them to ingest excessive amounts of Mouthwash, which could result in negative side effects like nausea, vomiting, and intoxication (due to the alcohol content in some rinses).
