dental rinse

Liquid mouth cleaner

Dental rinse is a liquid used to clean the mouth, freshen breath, or deliver therapeutic agents to teeth and gums.

Unlike toothpaste, it reaches areas between teeth and along the gumline without brushing.

Some rinses contain fluoride or antiseptic ingredients; others are purely cosmetic.

Also called mouthwash or mouth rinse: The dentist recommended a fluoride dental rinse.
