While swishing the contents in your mouth, you opt to read the label and learn that the product is designed to kill 99.99% of all germs and bacteria that can cause tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath. Pleased with your findings, you begin to wonder, \u201cCan it also kill the COVID-19 virus?\u201d After all, your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtondentalnj.com\/blog\/2020\/03\/treating-patients-until-march-21st-in-our-bergenfield-office\/\">dentist in Bergenfield<\/a> is requesting you rinse your mouth before your next appointment, so if it\u2019s strong enough to eliminate the others, why not this one, too? Read on to learn you\u2019re being asked to perform this task and whether it is protecting you from COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can Mouthwash Eliminate the COVID-19 Virus?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The short answer is \u201cno,\u201d it cannot eliminate COVID-19. Although dentists throughout the world would love to be able to point patients to these products as a guaranteed way to combat this virus, unfortunately, it\u2019s not the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the good news is various types of mouthwash are antimicrobial, which means they contain a certain percentage of alcohol that is designed to kill bad bacteria. To avoid plaque and tartar accumulations, cavity formations, and bad breath, products like Listerine and other similar brands can play a pivotal role in keeping your oral and overall health in optimal condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Rinse Effectively<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure that you are ridding your mouth of anything that can cause problems for your smile in the future, the best way to rinse is to do the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Choose a mouthwash that contains antimicrobial properties, as this will fight off bad bacteria.<\/li><li>Actively swish it in your mouth. This will ensure it reaches even the tiniest nooks and crannies.<\/li><li>Make sure you rinse for 30-60 seconds.<\/li><li>Don\u2019t water down your mouthwash, as this can make it less effective at killing bacteria.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Your Dentist is Requesting You Rinse<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the new and advanced safety protocols implemented by your dentist in Bergenfield, you will be asked to rinse with Perioguard before your appointment. This is an anti-viral\/anti-bacterial mouthwash. Although your dental team is aware that it cannot eliminate the COVID-19 virus, it can minimize the number of bacteria in your mouth, creating a healthier environment for your dentist to work in when examining and cleaning your teeth and gums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By joining with your dental team as an ally in this fight, you can help to keep yourself as well as those around you better protected from COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><br>Dr. Mariliza LaCap has more than two decades of experience working in the oral healthcare field.
