Do you use mouthwash daily?

Before and after use of mouthwash - Use mouthwash if not for you atleast for others working closer to you.

Mouth wash is essential to protect your teeth from cavities. If you think that you are doing fine with brushing and flossing,you are only partially correct. Because the food particles that can not be removed by them will be removed by mouth wash. You do use mouthwash daily once before going to bed. That will kill the germs and give your mouth a freshness. Mouth washes are now available in different flavor and they are cheap also. I am using equate brand,citrus flavor.I like it. What brand and flavor do you use?Share your experience. Happy mylotting

artificial versus natural antiseptic - [b]Yes and your very right[/b] statement about antiseptic mouth wash really good for our mouth and teeth health as well as for our breath. Previously, I used to be familiar with Vanilla Mint as illustrated by my photo attached and always take it every night before go to bed. In late 2007, I found it quite a forgetful stuff, I did travel a lot for my biz trip. I need to find something more convenience rather than carry its bottle type of container.

[b]I rub into someone[/b] in one biz seminar, I found he is a Professor who did research on his own about sea cucumber products and the product's business owner. He didn't explain me anything about his products and only edified me about the benefits of sea cucumber. Later on I found that his product not just renown in the country but also in several countries including in Japan and Korea.

[b]From that time[/b], I take his product for the sea cucumber toothpaste and it is much better compare to the antiseptic mouth wash, where I am no longer on two (2) stuffs for my mouth and teeth health care. Not just that, regularly using it able to remove plaque stained on my teeth, whitening and enjoy good breath.

Since winter I have been felt thirsty when getting up in the morning. As advised, I am trying mouthwash daily. It is the blue Listerine, cool mint flavor. It is stimulating. After a half mouthful, I would take clean water to rinse it, though i do not know if i need the rinsing. It seems my thirst is better now.

Though i believe mouthwash can really kill germs, i still use it very rarely. I am just reluctant sometimes. What i only use it toothbrush. So far i have no problem with bad breath or tooth decay. My teeth is complete and no problem at all but of course i am thinking about protecting and preserving it so i won't have problem in the future. I am using listerine mouthwash if i am not reluctant.

Well my daily cleaning my teeth routine is limited just to using the toothbrush to brush them.I do not do flossing,tongue cleaning stuff.Well I know that it is important to do these activities as well.I used to use mouth wash once upon a time.But now I haven't bought and used one.I would like to try it sometime.But I have my own doubts regarding it's efficiency.I feel it's only use is that it helps you to mask the foul odours emanating from the mouth!!I would like to try it sometime though.

Mouthwash,being liquid,can clean the teeth effectively as it can reach everywhere. It will loosen the food particles in the hidden area and clean it. Try someday the mouthwash. Happy mylotting

no because it also kill good germs in your mouth i do use mouth wash but not daily since it is not good to always kill all the bacteria in your mouth, probably should ask doctor about it

Hi there muru1950! I try my best to use mouthwash at least twice daily. But there are times when I don't even have much time to have my lunch. That's why, I rarely use the mouthwash at midday but make sure that I brush my teeth. I only use it after brushing my teeth in the morning before I leave for work and at night before I go to sleep.

i've been trying to use it daily. One because it helps keep that bad breath at bay. I actually use Listerine. Not too sure if it helps much. But i sure like the flavour of it.

I use it almost daily, maybe 5 times a week. Every once in a while I forget but I always brush and floss. I think 5 times is enough.

Hi muru1950, I do not believe in mouth wash, not the comercial one any way, is only comercial stuff, at the end of the day I just brush my teeth the way my parents did, and if you have any problems, rinse your mouth with salty water and that will take care of the problem [ unless you have a big toothtache ] then my friend is time to go the dentist

I do brushing and flossing daily but mouthwash almost twice a week. For food particles there is floss. Mouthwash is mainly for bad breath. I have a mint flavored one.

We have 3 or so bottles of different mouthwash in our house. My partner rinses his mouth atleast twice a day, I do so once a day, sometimes not at all, but mainly before bed. We have a citrus flavored one, a vanilla mint one, and the traditional mint.

Nah, I don't use it daily. I drink a lot water, and eat a lot of vegetables, on a daily basis. So I don't usually have to deal with bad breath any more. I did when I used to drink a lot of coffee and sodas, as it would come out of my pores. Well water doesn't have a scent. So if that comes out my pores it's fine. But mouth washing daily is such a drag, and can be very nasty.
