Rinses can add protection, but the type you choose matters.
Types of mouthwash
- Cosmetic rinses freshen breath temporarily
- Fluoride rinses help strengthen enamel
- Antibacterial rinses can reduce plaque and gingivitis
How to use it
Use it at a different time than brushing so you do not rinse away toothpaste fluoride. Alcohol-free formulas are gentler for dry mouth.
