If you have cavity then go for filling. No mouthwash or toothpaste is going to cure it

Mouthwash will not prevent caries. For prevention brush twice properly, rinse after every meal and you can also use any remineralizing toothpaste like vantej forte on regular basis.

Please attach photograph.
Caries can be prevented but once initiated needs to be filled.
You can prevent caries by brushing twice daily,rinsing after every meal.
Though mouthwash won`t help to control caries which are initiated,but to prevent it you can use Colgate plax mouthwash.

Hi cavity issue as In do u have multiple cavities in the mouth ?
1) rinse your mouth after meals
2) use a fluoridated tooth paste
3) time your sugar consumption in any form
Plz share pictures to guide weather you need mouth rinse or not.. more so sometimes a mouth wash doesn’t help control cavities !

Plz stop using medicated tooth paste like sensodyn on regular basis. Cavities require fillings by trained dentists and cannot be treated by tooth paste or mouth wash
