Essential Oil Mouthwash 2 articles

Essential Oil Mouthwash uses combinations of volatile oils such as thymol, eucalyptol, menthol or related compounds as active components in an antimicrobial oral rinse. These formulations are used as adjuncts to brushing and interdental cleaning for plaque and gingival hygiene, with alcohol-containing and alcohol-free versions depending on the brand. Essential-oil rinses are a distinct chemical category from chlorhexidine or CPC products, and their home-care role should be judged by the formulation rather than by flavor alone.
