Mouthwash

Mouthwash

Noun

• a liquid used for rinsing the mouth or gargling with.

Notes

• Mouthwash, mouth rinse, oral rinse, or mouth bath is a liquid which is held in the mouth passively or swirled around the mouth by contraction of the perioral muscles and/or movement of the head, and may be gargled, where the head is tilted back and the liquid bubbled at the back of the mouth.

• Usually mouthwashes are antiseptic solutions intended to reduce the microbial load in the mouth, although other mouthwashes might be given for other reasons such as for their analgesic, anti-inflammatory or anti-fungal action.

• Cosmetic mouth rinses temporarily control or reduce bad breath and leave the mouth with a pleasant taste.
