Betadine or other antiseptic mouthwashes are to be used for prescribed duration only because they serve the useful purpose of ensuring an uneventful healing. Long term use is unnecessary and may have disadvantages like causing discoloration of teeth. For long term/ regular oral hygiene you can supplement your tooth brushing with warm salt water rinses.
