I always rinse my mouth with water after using mouthwash.. Does anybody else do this?

    Nope. I floss, rinse with mouthwash, go chill for a couple minutes, then brush my teeth. Also try not to rinse after brushing your teeth.

    Why

    Rinsing right away washes out the fluoride. It needs to have time to sit on your teeth. I'm not saying just leave a mouth full of toothpaste, I try to get as much out as possible without rinsing, but leaving a little is fine.

    I use Plax, then brush my teeth/entire mouth (including my lips), then rinse, then floss & finally use Scope! I only use the bristles, for my teeth & the tongue cleaner, for everything else!

    Did you know if you rinse with mouthwash and then take a breathalyzer test you will blow over? I might have tried this.

    I hate the taste of mouthwash. I have some toothpaste that has it in it and makes me want to vomit.

    the club has mouthwash in the bathrooms though and if I'm going to partner people I make sure to use it. I don't want to be that close to people with coffee breath and I hope they do the same

    I like feeling like I have fresh breath... I need to rinse with water though because I don't like swallowing whatever I can't spit out
