“…Chlorhexidine is generally used as a 0.2% w/w mouthrinse, but the 0.10% w/w mouthwash or I% gel can also be beneficial (Addy et al, 1974(Addy et al, , 1976Addy, 1977;Hunter and Addy, 1987).

In addition, chlorhexidine gluconate must be used almost daily for long periods and may cause exogenous dental staining.…”
