Does Mouthwash Expire ?

Other Precautions When Using Mouthwash

Most mouthwash products typically contain a high level of fluoride and alcohol. Both ingredients should not be ingested too much, particularly by kids. Therefore, health experts do not recommend mouthwash products for children under 6 years old. Even when you are an adult, avoid swallowing mouthwash. Do not use these products to speed healing and kill bacteria when you have oral lesions or open sores in the mouth. These symptoms may indicate an underlying condition that require proper treatments.
