Mouthwash Facts In Gainesville

General Dentistry Gainesville GA

Hi, I am Dr. Joseph Weber and this is the Weber Family Dental blog. In today’s post I would like to discuss mouthwash. Many Gainesville GA residents use mouthwashes to freshen their breath and help retard tooth decay. Mouthwash should never be used exclusively though, good oral hygiene starts with a thorough tooth brushing followed by flossing. Mouthwash is just a supplement in your dental hygiene tool box.

It is important for Gainesville GA residents to know what kind of mouthwash they are using. Some mouthwashes merely mask bad breath while others help reduce the bacteria that causes plaque and bad breath.

If you are one of the Gainesville residents that suffers from bad breath it is important to choose a mouthwash that contains ingredients that help prevent tooth decay such as fluoride. But Gainesville GA folks also need to use caution when using mouthwashes because many of the ingredients are dangerous when the recommended amount of mouthwash is exceeded.

Some of the poisonous components are chlorhexidine gluconate, ethanol, hydrogen peroxide, and methyl salicylate. If you experience throat pain, vomiting, headache, or abdominal pain after using mouthwash, seek medical help immediately. The National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) can answer questions if you feel have over used your mouthwash.

At Weber Family Dental we want everyone to have great smelling breath, but to use caution when treating their bad breath. Make sure to read your mouthwash label and follow all instructions given.

In addition to preventative dental care, Weber Family Dental offers a wide range of cosmetic dentistry procedures. If you are anxious to have a whiter, brighter smile, Weber Family Dental offers various teeth whitening options for the Gainesville GA area. Weber Family Dental also provide cosmetic dentistry and restorative dentistry and dental crowns.

At Weber Family Dental we have been improving the smiles of residents in Gainesville GA and the surrounding areas since 1991. Contact us today to schedule a consultation.
