ALTERNATIVES TO MOUTHWASH

Suppose you don’t have mouthwash handy, or you’d simply prefer the more natural route. In that case, a few home remedies may offer similar results as a mouthwash.

Things you can try at home include:

• Baking soda and salt rinse: These ingredients offer some natural antiseptic properties that can help fight infection and help control bacteria growth in your mouth.
• Cinnamon and clove rinse: This combination of natural ingredients will help control bacteria growth and freshen your breath.
• Peppermint and tea tree oil rinse: Another great mixture that will leave your breath fresh and your mouth clean.
• Hydrogen peroxide rinse: When done properly, hydrogen peroxide is a great way to improve oral health, including whitening. However, it must be done properly because it can cause issues if ingested or used too much.
