The health claims and benefits of mouthwash vary quite a bit, so let’s see which contains what and if they live up to their claims. Alcohol mouthwash has drawn widespread concern regarding alcoholic content being a risk factor for oral cancer. There is research to show that alcohol makes the mouth's cells more vulnerable to cancer-causing agents. When alcohol is broken down, the product is acetaldehyde, a known human carcinogen. Reviewers love the clear formula that is free from chemical coloring dyes. This ACT Mouthwash contains the maximum strength of fluoride available in rinse form without a prescription.

Although gingivitis is caused by dry mouth, it is reversible. With the right care, you can heal your mouth from home. Dr. Tang says that while mouthwash itself won't aggravate gingivitis, anything that's used improperly can ultimately not be good for the condition.

Results Salt water is an isotonic solution, which means it contains the same salts and minerals as our body fluids and won’t irritate your gums.

Formulated with FDA-approved cetylpyridinium chloride, this mouthwash kills germs linked to gum disease and other periodontal problems, making it the best option for people with gingivitis.

The daily rinses are probably the most effective and contain about 0.05% fluoride. Weekly or fortnightly mouth rinses at 0.2% are also available.As microbiome measures for feces samples collected using RNA later, FOBT cards and oral samples collected using Scope mouthwash were stable over four days at room temperature, these would be most appropriate for microbial analyses in these populations. However, one collection method should be consistently since each method may induce some differences.

You can use a mouthwash to get rid of gingivitis to a certain degree, says Vera W. L. Tang, DDS, MS, clinical assistant professor, and vice chair and predoctoral director, department of periodontology and implant dentistry at NYU College of Dentistry in New York City.

At the clinic visit, participants provided oral samples using the OMNIgene ORAL OM-505 saliva collection kit (DNAGenotek, Ontario, Canada) and Scope mouthwash (Proctor & Gamble). Participants were asked to refrain from eating and smoking at least 20 min prior to sample collection. All OMNIgene samples were collected before mouthwash samples by spitting into a pre-labeled tube until the amount of saliva reached the “fill line”. The cap was closed to release the preservative solution and mixed. Next, the participant used 10 mL of Scope mouthwash to swish for 5 s and gargle for 5 s three times each for a total of 30 s before spitting into a pre-labeled collection cup. Two 1.8 mL aliquots were created from the Scope mouthwash samples. The first was frozen immediately at -80 °C while second aliquot was kept at room temperature for 96 h (day-4) and then stored at -80 °C. After collection, OMNIgene tubes were processed according to DNAGenotek’s aliquoting protocol ( https://www.dnagenotek.com/us/pdf/PD-PR-00214.pdf). Briefly, the OMNIgene funnel cap was replaced with the standard cap and then the tube was vigorously shaken for 8 s or longer by hand. Prior to aliquoting and freezing, the sample was incubated at 50 °C for 1 h in a water bath or for 2 h in an air incubator. After incubation, two 1.0 mL aliquots were frozen immediately at -80 °C (day-0). DNA extraction and sequencing
