I use the Biotene mouthwash, havent tried the new one yet. Since trismus is a big issue with me, I cant use the trays, have to use a baby tootbrush. I still use Biotene toothpaste and a waterpik 3x per day. I use a 50/50 mix of water and prescription Peridex rinse with the waterpik. Anything else that I can do to help with my dental upkeep?
