Can we use Dettol liquid as a mouth wash?

No, we cannot use dettol liquid as a mouthwash.

Dettol is a brand name for a variety of cleaning products, including a liquid disinfectant. The active ingredient in Dettol is chloroxylenol, which is a phenol derivative. Phenols are known to be toxic if swallowed and can cause irritation to the skin and eyes.

Mouthwashes are typically used to rinse the mouth and kill bacteria. While Dettol is effective at killing bacteria, it is not intended for use in the mouth and can be harmful if swallowed.

There are many safe and effective mouthwashes available that are specifically designed for use in the mouth. These mouthwashes typically contain ingredients such as fluoride, which helps to strengthen teeth, and antibacterial agents, which help to kill bacteria.

It is important to follow the directions on the mouthwash bottle and to avoid swallowing the mouthwash. If you have any questions about using mouthwash, you should talk to your dentist or doctor.
