Salt water.
Seriously. If you've even gone in for wisdom tooth removal you've probably had it recommended. It is a cheap and effective antibiotic.
Corporations want you to buy things that are expensive and unnecessary.
Stay simple and natural.

I use it also.
One thing about ACV though- you must rinse your mouth out thoroughly with fresh water after using it since it is a fairly powerful acid which can strip the enamel off your teeth over time.

I use ACV... I drink it, and use it on my skin, but I never seriously thought to use it as a mouthwash. I mean the thought crossed my mind, but I figured it was way too pungent.
Do you use it straight or dilute it? The only way I could imagine bearing it would be if it was diluted.

same here, i use it on food, i drink it with honey and water 3 times a day, i use it on my skin, sometimes i wash my scalp with it.
i just use a shot of it straight for mouthwash. its strong, and it burns, but it doesnt burn anymore than listerine does i dont think. i also just drink the shot after im done instead of spitting it out. starts the day with a nice burn

Yet cannabis, LSD, and psilocybe are still illegal - go figure.
