At what age is it okay for a child to start using mouthwash?

Q. At what age is it okay for a child to start using mouthwash? Is it best to just have your child brush their teeth until they are a bit older before they start using mouthwash?
A. I would not recommend mouthwash for a child.
As you said its best left until they are old enough.
Brushing is adequate.
