Dentist Shaadi Manouchehri went viral with a TikTok video explaining the correct way to use mouthwash.
Dentist Shaadi said she wouldn’t use mouthwash “right after brushing your teeth.” The reason is that mouthwash reverses the effects of the fluoride in the toothpaste after brushing.
“We need to use fluoride toothpaste twice a day to brush our teeth and spit, without rinsing, because fluoride not only makes our teeth physically stronger but also kills the bacteria that cause cavities,” Shaadi explained.
According to the dentist, who has over 10 years of experience in the field, fluoride can even prevent early-stage cavities, but using mouthwash removes the protective layer.
Shaadi recommends using mouthwash before brushing your teeth to “remove some of the plaque before you use your toothbrush and floss.”
