Commercial dental hygiene products are packaged in single-use plastic, and often contain coloring agents, preservatives and other additives. With homemade sage mouthwash, you can keep your mouth feeling fresh naturally.
Using mouthwash daily isn’t strictly necessary if you brush, floss, and clean your tongue properly and regularly. Ads of the big brands of commercially produced mouthwash will have you believe using their product on the daily is necessary for hygiene, and that your breath will smell without it. That is not true.
By making small batches of our all-natural sage mouthwash, you are free to use it whenever you feel like freshening up your breath with something herby and natural tasting.
