Using Mouthwash for Braces

Meeting the challenge of keeping teeth clean amid brackets and wires.

If you or someone you know wears braces, you’re used to getting food stuck in them. That’s just part of the whole experience. And when you wear cool wires on your teeth (yes, we’re talking about the fluorescent-coloured ones), there are all sorts of new hidden cracks and corners for food particles to get trapped in. The excellent thing about liquid, and LISTERINE® rinse is that it targets all those tough-to-get-to spots.
