Sumario: | Mouth rinses are therapeutic solutions utilized for gargling and rinsing the oral cavity. Several oral disorders need a mouth rinse, which can differ from halitosis to diseases of the periodontium. It is essential for the management of secondary infections, for example, oral mucositis. A mouth rinse may be suggested as an anti-inflammatory, antibacterial agent, topical analgesic, or for caries prevention. Several different mouth rinses are accessible nowadays. Selection of a suitable mouth rinse depends on the patient’s requirement, disease threat and competence, and safety of mouth rinse. The application of antiseptics to the skin or mucous membranes before surgery or injections has been practised for many years. The goal of such an application is to reduce the number of microorganisms on the surface to prevent their entry into underlying tissues, which could cause bacteremia, septicemia, or harmful local infections. A similar idea of minimizing oral bacteria underlies the patient's usage of an antibiotic mouthwash before dental treatments. This decrease in microflora also reduces the possibility of pathogens entering the patient's mouth through direct contact, splatter, or aerosols during dental treatment. The main aim of this review is to aid oral health care professionals in making the correct selection of mouthwash while dealing with different conditions of the oral cavity. |
