Abstract

There are a large number of mouthwashes available, with the majority available to buy without prescription. Different active ingredients in mouthwashes serve different functions, and it can be confusing for patients who may seek guidance from their general dental practitioner on which formulation best suits their oral healthcare needs. It is important that patients are given direction by their dentist on the duration they should use a mouthwash for, side effects they may encounter, and where the mouthwash fits in their daily oral hygiene routine. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Mouthwashes are typically well tolerated, easy to use, and can be a useful addition to a patient's oral healthcare routine.
