mouthwashes
Liquid breath fresheners
Mouthwashes is the plural of mouthwash, a liquid used to rinse the mouth for freshening breath, killing bacteria, or treating oral conditions.
Some contain alcohol; others are alcohol-free.
The dentist recommended alternating between different mouthwashes.
Mouthwash can also describe something that covers up rather than fixes a problem: The apology was just mouthwash.
