    It advertised heavily on various kinds of mouthwash on television. They are presented to mouthwash can cure everything from bad breath to the relationship, but now new research shows that there is one side of the coin. Mouthwashes often contain antibacterial substances, namely, and if you take too many of them may ultimately mean that you develop resistance to antibiotics, writes BBC News.

    Risk of resistance
    At Dental Association has precisely been made aware of the problem.

    - The mouthwashes available, containing either alcohol or antibacterial agents, and if you put antibacterial agents in something you use every day, so it would be inappropriate, as may occur resistance, explains Ole Mark, who is a dentist and assistant director the Dental Association.

    You become resistant to antibiotics may mean that the body gets more difficult to fight infections, for example, in the oral cavity or elsewhere in the body.

    Mouthwash should not be used
    The findings were presented Thursday at the Dental Society Semester Course of the Norwegian professor and dentist Anne Scheie, who is behind the research. She recommended that we generally do not use mouthwash.

    - Generally it is such that normal healthy people do not use such products. They must instead learn to use their toothbrush, floss and brush between the teeth. It is in the long run also the cheapest for patients Ole says Mark.

    Only symbolic
    There is not much good to say about the mouthwash according Dental Association.

    - The only thing I see as a dentist is that some people think it's been more interesting to take care of his mouth. But we will not recommend that you do it every day because it is not necessary for the normal patient, explains Ole Mark.

    According to Ole Mark, there is a very small group of people, where mouthwash may be beneficial and he recommends that you ask at his dentist if you have any doubts.
