The Best Mouthwashes Recommended by Dental Hygienists

Mouthwash is often hailed as a game-changer for oral hygiene. But with so many options lining the shelves, how do you know which one to pick? The answer lies in understanding what your mouth actually needs.

Why Mouthwash Matters

Mouthwash isn't just about fresh breath—though that's certainly a perk! Using the right product can significantly boost your oral health by reducing bacteria, strengthening enamel, and preventing gum disease.

Types of Mouthwash

  • Antibacterial mouthwash (chlorhexidine-based)
  • Fluoride rinses
  • Natural/alcohol-free options

Conclusion

There's no single "best" mouthwash because everyone's oral health needs are different. Work with a dental hygienist to identify the right product for your needs.

Jack is a wonderful hygienist! I suffer from TMJD, and I usually struggle a lot during dental cleanings, but this visit was completely different. He put me at ease right away and was incredibly gentle and attentive. For the first time in a long while, the cleaning didn't hurt much at all, and I felt genuinely cared for throughout the entire appointment.

We recently visited this practice and were fortunate enough to be looked after by Jack, our dental hygienist. I cannot praise him highly enough. His level of professionalism and friendly demeanor were exceptional. He took the time to ensure both my husband and I felt completely comfortable, making the entire appointment stress-free.

My husband and I recently had a dental hygienist appointment here and the whole experience was exceptional. We were seen by Laila who was both friendly, caring and professional. She made us feel at ease and comfortable throughout the procedure and we were very pleased with the results. We could not recommend her more highly to you.
