Abstract

Oral rinses are increasingly becoming an important treatment option for halitosis. There are few products on the market that have been thoroughly evaluated in clinical trials designed to test for the long-term efficacy of mouthrinses in the management of this disorder. This review looks at some of the potential causes and detection methods or oral malodor along with the bacterial, microbiological and biochemical processes involved. The article presents the available literature on clinical trials evaluating the efficacy and mechanisms of action of the different types of oral rinses used in the reduction of plaque and gingivitis, in addition to rinse studies geared more specifically to the treatment of halitosis.
