Dear practo user
Any mouth wash who help, including warm saline water rinse for at least one minute with teeth tightly clenched. Let the liquid forcibly be flushed between teeth gaps. Dilute the concentration. You may also use Betadine gargle available over the counter.
Technique is important than brand.

During Covid situation Listerine is preferred.
Or Hexidine is one of the most popular mouth washes.
Once in every 3 days, after meal, 5-10 drops maximum in your mouth, hold for next 2-3 minutes, mouth will salivate automatically once mouthwash is held in mouth (so no need of external dilution with water) spit out and do not eat drink anything or rinse mouth for next 15-20 minutes. And brush off teeth thoroughly after 20 minutes.
In case, you feel the concentration is too high for you, can dilute with water of half of the amount to that of mouthwash.
