Mouthwash can be beneficial to kill germs and fight bacteria that can lead to cavities. A mouthwash containing fluoride can even helpprotect your teeth from cavities. Ingredients, flavor and price are factors to considering in choosing a mouthwash. Many mouthwashes contain alcohol, which can dry up the protective saliva in your mouth, so you may want to ask your dentist to recommend one for you. A mouthwash is a great dental product, but it cannot replace flossing and brushing. If you decide to use a mouthwash, be sure to use it in conjunction with brushing and flossing.
