When it comes to fighting bad breath or supporting dental health such as periodontal health,  many people may think that any old mouthwash will do. 

There is a tremendous amount of difference between mouthwash options.  Some are healthier than others.  The therabreath mouthwash is particularly good for a variety of reason.  One is that it is pH balanced.  Another is that it is not tested on animals and is kosher too.

When it comes to preventing cavities and avoiding gingivitis, pH balance could play a part by avoiding an acidic environment.  Bacteria in the mouth grow quicker when the pH is low (acidic) and they multiply more slowly when the mouth is more basic.
