A classic mouthwash is focused on removing microbes. The idea behind this is that the fewer microbes, the less sensitive the gums, the less tooth decay, the less infections and the fresher the breath.

Ordinary mouthwashes work instantly, but their effect, especially on bad breath, is quickly exhausted.
