How to Use Mouthwash
Mouthwash is a device that deeply cleans the teeth by giving pressurized water to the mouth. It provides cleaning of all blind spots that the toothbrush, floss and interface brush cannot reach. Especially in mouths with bridges and/or implants, using a mouthwash will be more beneficial in terms of providing oral hygiene more effectively.
What is Mouthwash?
Mouthwash is a device that provides effective cleaning by using pressurized liquid in the mouth, between the teeth or between the teeth and neighboring tissues. It is also known as a toothbrush.
The flosser reaches the points where the toothbrush and dental floss cannot reach, and removes the food residues and plaque stuck between the teeth from the oral environment. With its pressure, it reaches much deeper parts of the gingival pocket and provides a more effective cleaning. In this way, it significantly reduces the risk of both caries formation and tartar formation.
It has been proven in studies that the toothbrush provides only 30% hygiene. For this reason , the Mouthwash is one of the indispensable devices in terms of oral hygiene. In particular, people who use implants, prostheses, orthodontic treatment and have gum diseases have to use a dental shower.
What are the Benefits?
Regular use of flossing provides various benefits in terms of oral and dental health. The main benefits of using a mouthwash are as follows:
- It is a good alternative for patients who cannot use dental floss.

- It is very useful in preventing gingivitis, tooth decay, bleeding gums, bacteria, staining, yellowing and bad breath.
- Mouthwash affects the bacterial layer and thickness of the gingival plaques. In this way, it changes the form of plaques by changing the bacterial flora and suppresses the discomforts that may occur in the mouth.

- The use of a mouthwash is very beneficial for cleaning for people who use prostheses and implants, have gum disease, and undergo orthodontic treatment. Because it is not possible to completely clean between the toothbrush and the prosthesis. The same is true for braces used in orthodontic treatment. At the same time, flossing can cause more damage to the gums of people with gum disease. For this reason, pressurized water method is the best solution to these problems, especially for these people.
