Teeth staining after clohex mouthwash

2024-01-30 18:47:15
Hi. I underwent surgical extraction of all 4 impacted wisdom teeth one month back. My healing was slow as all 4 were badly impacted and surgery was complicated. Apart from medications I was given Clohex Heal Mouthwash to use for 1 month. Now after a month I am much better and healed very well. However, I am noticing slight staining in my teeth. Is this due to the use of the mouthwash? Apart from going for teeth cleaning, are there any home remedies to reduce staining? Is there any particular medicated toothpaste I can use? Will salt water rinse help? Any other home remedies ? Kindly help.

Hi, Use of mouth is unlikely to cause teeth staining. Get your teeth examined by the dentist. A professional dental cleaning will remove the stains. Stop using the mouthwash.
