Should i use a mouthwash?




 Mouth is not necessary for your oral health. If you brush at least twice a day for 2 minutes and floss once a  day then mouthwash will not make a huge difference. If you are using me mouthwash less than 2 times per day then it should be ok.

USES OF MOUTHWASH?

1.Used for  fresh breath.

2.Used for whitening of teeth and it acts like a bleaching agent.

3. It reduces gum infection by killing bacteria.

4.It reduces tooth decay. 

HOW TO USE MOUTHWASH;

Directions may vary according to which mouthwash brand you are using. Firstly, brush your teeth first. if you are using fluoride toothpaste wait a while for using a mouthwash can wash away the concentrated fluoride in toothpaste. Pour mouthwash of  about 3 to 5 teaspoons in to the choice of cup and only use as the product instructs. Get set rinse and take mouthwash in to your mouth and swish it. Don't drink or swallow it. It will not work if you drink it. Gargle it for 30seconds or count to 30 in your head. Spit the mouthwash out in to the sink.

WHEN TO USE MOUTHWASH;

Mouth wash usually contains high amounts of alcohol and fluoride and both ingredients are not good for children. So dentist usually don't recommend mouthwash for children under 6yrs age group and adults should avoid a habit of  swallowing mouthwash either. If you have any oral lesions or sores in your mouth then using mouthwash during that time then it will do more harm to sores. In such cases better we should consult a dentist and follow their words, and finally, mouthwash can't be used as a substitute of brushing and flossing. our Smile dental will provide best regular services and also great awareness regarding tooth and its problems while consultation.
