The most common prescribed mouthwash is Peridex (Chlorhexidine Gluconate 0.12), twice/day for 7 days/month. There are other products that may have the same results, I am not sure if I can list them on this platform.
Peridex oral rinse.
Your dentist will be able to give you a prescription mouthrinse. Chlorohexadine works well for 2 weeks. It may cause staining of the teeth with prolong use.
Chlorexidine bases mouth rinse are the best for periodontal disease. They however, will stain your teeth. A good mouthrinse is Peroxyl, peroxide based, It give good results but not indicated if you a smoker. Hope was helpful
Hi,
Listerine or Peridex (by prescription only).
Listerine or Peridex (by prescription only).
The best mouthwash for periodontal disease is Peridex. Must be prescribed by your dentist and is for a limited time use.
In my opinion the best mouth rinse for people with periodontitis or a active gum disease is chlorhexidine 0.12 rinse. This is available with a prescription not over the counter.
