Dr. William P. Caldon, D.M.D., co-owner of Plattsburgh’s High Peaks Dental, explains which ingredients to look for in mouthwash and reminds readers that rinsing is no substitute for brushing and flossing.

Plattsburgh, NY — July 13, 2015 — Renowned Plattsburgh dentist Dr. William Caldon published a new blog post entitled “How To Choose Mouthwash That’s Healthiest For You.” In the post, he counsels readers on how to pick the best mouthwash to address their unique health concerns, from germ-fighting options that contain alcohol to alcohol-free alternatives containing ingredients like cetylpyridinium chloride and sodium chloride.

Says Caldon, “Today’s mouthwashes might seem hi-tech and modern, but humans have been rinsing their mouths with special formulas for thousands of years to stave off tooth decay…With modern medical science and a host of effective new ingredients, there’s a dazzling array of choices when it comes to mouthwash. How do you know which kind is healthiest for you?”

Dr. Caldon has been a co-owner of High Peaks Dental since 1996 after serving in the United States Air Force for 20 years and retiring as a Colonel. He received his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the University of Louisville and his Bachelor’s from Thomas More College. In 2013, USA Today featured Caldon as one of America’s Premier Dentists.
