Mouthwash is safe? Not sure

[lucaster]

Many people use mouthwash for work overtime and after a meal because it is more convenience than the use of toothbrushing. Most of people buy mouthwash are youth. Most of people believe that mouth is clear after using mouthwash and smells nice, more comfortable than toothbrushing. Surely, compared with traditional toothpaste and toothbrush, oral hygiene product mouthwash has advantages such as using conveniently, saving time, however, mouthwash can take place of toothbrushing? Mouthwash is safe?

Thank you for raising this very important issue that clearly affects a lot of Dulwich residents. I would suggest highlighting this issue to the council and stressing that it should be part of their manifesto and that we see clear action taken going forward. Not only could the use of mouthwash seriously affect the dental hygiene of Dulwich residents but any continuation of use without any formalised action could seriously affect the moral fibre of Dulwich and it?s future as an orally hygienic part of London.

If the council refuses to take any action on this I suggest we organise a peaceful rally to Westminster and maybe get other concerned localities to join forces with us. If you need any assistance please let me know as I have experience campaigning serious issues (such as the deodorant spray versus Roll on campaign of the early 2000s and the Shampoo and Conditioner 2 in 1 vs separate bottles debate a couple of years ago ? both inconclusive sadly) and can make some rather fetching placards and outfits (Mouthwash bottle outfit and a toothpaste tube outfit with gladiator style pugil sticks is an immediate idea).
