Mouthwashes - how they work

February 24

In the dental context, we often speak of comprehensive and complete dental care. But what does that actually mean? In addition to toothpaste and dental floss, there is also mouthwash, which should complement the complete care. Especially in the field of teeth whitening, many mouthwashes have recently come onto the market, all of which promise whiter teeth and a well-groomed and clean mouthfeel.

Mouthwashes with fluoride

Mouthwashes with the remineralizing ingredient fluoride are particularly effective in places where the toothbrush cannot reach. These are in particular the spaces between the teeth and the back teeth, which are often left out when brushing your teeth. Certain herbal extracts such as sage extract or extracts from mint not only ensure fresh breath, but also leave your mouth feeling clean.

At OnlySmile we stand for healthy, strong and white teeth. That is why we recommend the use of mouthwashes to optimally complement the simple dental care with toothbrush and dental floss. When buying the mouthwash, however, make sure that the packaging explicitly states that the tooth enamel is not attacked. Tooth enamel is like the top protective layer of your teeth. Certain mouthwashes contain substances that can unbalance the oral flora and attack tooth enamel. Increased sensitivity and pain can be unpleasant consequences.

The complete care program just mentioned ensures strong and healthy teeth. But even strong and healthy teeth can have a yellowish to greyish discoloration. How do you get your teeth white like on the billboards or like in the TV commercials? The simplest and most uncomplicated solution for this is called OnlySmile. We have specialized in the production of high quality and certified teeth whitening products that are developed by our experts in Germany. For example, an application of the OnlySmile tooth whitening set only takes 30 minutes and, depending on your original tooth color, provides visible results after the first application. Simple, fast and effective - that is OnlySmile.
