Answers:
Different mouth rinses do different things!.
Fluoride is a rinse that aids in strengthening your enamel!. Meaning, if you have a weak spot in your enamel that is on its way to becoming a cavity, you may be able to remineralize that area by using a fluoride rinse (such as ACT)!.
However, antiseptic rinses (such as Scope or Listerine) are good for killing bacteria in your mouth and making your breath fresh!.
Since they both do different things, I wouldn't say one is better than the other!.
If you're going to use only one kind of rinse, I would recommend fluoride!. But, if you're able to use both, I would recommend this: Use the antisceptic rinse in the morning after brushing!. And, use the fluoride rinse at night just before bed!. (When doing this, don't rinse!.!.!. just spit the fluoride rinse out!. Let what is left coat your teeth overnight to help remineralize any weak spots)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Fluoride prevents cavities and is dentist recommended and Scope is lame!. Use Act!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
