SmartMouth mouthwash is a brand of mouthwash that uses zinc ion technology to prevent bacteria from producing sulfur gas compounds. Here are some advantages and disadvantages of using mouthwash in general, as well as some specific to SmartMouth:
Advantages of using mouthwash:
- Fights off cavities: If your mouthwash contains fluoride, it can help reduce cavities.
- Reduces gum disease: Rinsing with a fluoride rinse can help reduce gum disease.
- Freshens breath: Mouthwash can help freshen breath by killing bacteria that cause bad breath.
- Prevents plaque buildup: Some mouthwashes contain ingredients that can help prevent plaque buildup.
Disadvantages of using mouthwash:
- Dries out mouth: Some mouthwashes contain high alcohol content, which can dry out your mouth and cause the skin inside your mouth to become “swampy” which can lead to halitosis.
- Only temporarily masks bad breath: Most mouthwashes simply work as masking agents. They may work for a few moments, but soon that sulfur-like smell, and the bacteria returns.
Advantages of using SmartMouth mouthwash:
- Prevents VSCs from forming: SmartMouth Oral Rinse is the only activated mouthwash that uses zinc ion technology and prevents bacteria from producing sulfur gas compounds.
- Long-lasting: With each use of SmartMouth, bad breath will not return for 12 hours.
- Anti-plaque and anti-gingivitis benefits: SmartMouth Clinical DDS Activated Oral Rinse combines zinc ion technology with maximum anti-plaque and anti-gingivitis benefits to help prevent bleeding gums and bad breath.
Disadvantages of using SmartMouth mouthwash:
- Strong scent: SmartMouth has a strong scent of its own (not a nice minty one) that people notice.
