# Fluoride Rinse Notes
> A fluoride rinse can be a useful extra for some adults. Learn when dentists suggest one and how to use it safely.

## Guides
- [Who Tends to Benefit From a Fluoride Rinse](https://fluoride-mouthwash-for-adults.pages.dev/who-benefits-fluoride-rinse/): Adults who are told by their dentist that their teeth could use extra protection are the usual candidates for a rinse, and many others manage well without one.
- [Swishing at Night](https://fluoride-mouthwash-for-adults.pages.dev/when-to-swish-at-night/): Many adults use a fluoride rinse in the evening after brushing, since the mouth is then left alone overnight with fewer meals and drinks to follow.
- [Not Rinsing With Water Afterwards](https://fluoride-mouthwash-for-adults.pages.dev/no-rinsing-with-water-after/): After you spit out a fluoride rinse, many dental teams advise leaving your mouth alone so the fluoride stays in contact with your teeth for longer.
- [Why You Should Not Swallow Fluoride Rinse](https://fluoride-mouthwash-for-adults.pages.dev/swallowing-fluoride-rinse-caution/): Fluoride rinse is meant to be swished and spat out, because swallowing it adds fluoride your body does not need and can upset your stomach.
- [Asking Your Dentist About Strength](https://fluoride-mouthwash-for-adults.pages.dev/ask-dentist-for-strength/): Rinse strength is a clinical choice, so the sensible move is to ask your dentist or hygienist which strength fits your mouth.
