Clearly, people are concerned about creating an optimal oral health routine and are wondering about the right way to use mouthwash. However, there is a great deal of confusion and misunderstanding about this material. You can use mouth wash up to three times a day. You most likely should invest in Breath RX tongue spray and a Breath RX Tongue scrapper and use the coarse side. Buy yourself a sonicare toothbrush and a waterpik and get a deep cleaning of your teeth and fix any infections and cavities that may be contributing to your breath.
Children under the age of shouldn ’t use mouthwash.
If their gums are swollen or red and you suspect a problem, a visit to the dentist is more important. Read the label though because particular brands could require different uses. Check the label for the age that the person must be to use the mouthwash. Cleaning is never bad for you.
Beck responded: 2-times. I recommend brushing morning and night. And use a good quality mouthwash such as listerine once a day. I would read what the directions recommend.
I think the back of most bottles say twice a day though.
I use it everytime I brush my teeth. Well if you do it once in the morning. Twice, three times a day ? After every meal, or when?
A Fluoride rinse is not necessary as part of your daily oral care routine in addition to brushing and flossing unless your dentist has told you that you are at higher risk for decay. Adults should use a toothpaste that contains at least 3parts per million (ppm) fluoride. It may seem silly, but it’s actually a good question.
By now you already know that it’s important to brush at least times a day. Most people know they should brush their teeth two to three times a day. My dentist suggests a fluoride booster that. If you can brush once after every meal–breakfast, lunch, and dinner–you minimize the growth of bacteria in your mouth. But wait an hour after each meal: brushing too soon can cause damage to the enamel of your teeth.
Most dentists recommend that you use mouthwash after every brushing. Using it more than twice a day can be harmful, so use of this product should be limited. Dentists also advise that you refrain from swallowing mouthwash.
If you wish you can use half or a third of the “measuring” cup volume each time you rinse (so that you divide the amount but use it more often twice or three times a day). As a result, you can use mouthwash once every day. Some people even use it twice every day.
To be on the safe side, using mouthwash once every day is a good idea.
Adults probably don’t need to use mouthwash more than once or twice a day. Too much mouthwash can wash away the saliva in your mouth, upsetting the pH balance, allowing bacteria to grow and increasing your risk of cavities and gum disease. Chlorhexidine and Listerine - Have been clinically tested for use with the Water Flosser.
CHX can be diluted in varying strengths. The quantity of rinse you use each time does not matter…. LENGTH of time that fluoride is in contact with your tooth surface. Most kids’ anti-cavity rinses must be used twice daily – but who has time for that?
That’s why ACT Anticavity Kids Rinses are uniquely formulated to be used just 1x per day to achieve the maximum benefits of fluoride. However, if used for extended periods ie over a month at a time can result in tooth staining and diminished taste. Instead floss daily and use a fluoridated toothpaste. Except for special circumstances mouthwash is often unnecessary.
If your dentist has done this, a) I NEED to hear this story and b) next time ask for a referral to an oral surgeon. Zoom Whitening or Same Day Whitening is far better than take-home bleach kits provided by a dental professional. This is something of which many dentists are not always aware.
