Essential Oxygen BR Certified Organic Brushing Rinse

This certified-organic pre-brush oral rinse is designed for use before brushing. You swish for about 60 seconds to help freshen breath, reduce oral bacteria, and support a cleaner brushing experience. It’s meant to complement brushing and flossing, not replace them.

What I Like

I like that this is positioned as a pre-brush rinse, which can elevate a basic oral-care routine rather than trying to be a one-step solution.

The formula stays away from fluoride, alcohol, SLS, glycerin, sugars, and synthetic preservatives, which is helpful for people looking to simplify ingredients in oral care.

Food-grade hydrogen peroxide is a well-known oral-care ingredient for cleansing and brightening, and here it’s paired with aloe and plant gums for a more balanced feel.

The aloe base and organic essential oils give it a clean, herbal-forward profile without artificial flavoring.

Things to Keep in Mind

EWG rating (EWG analyzer): 3.
This score is primarily driven by hydrogen peroxide and peppermint oil, which are commonly flagged for irritation potential in oral products when used frequently. This doesn’t mean the product is unsafe, but it’s helpful context if you closely follow EWG scores.

This is not a replacement for brushing and flossing. It’s intended for use before brushing, as directed by the brand.

Sensitive Mouth & Pregnancy Considerations

Because hydrogen peroxide is an active cleansing ingredient, it's important to monitor how your enamel and gums feel during regular use—especially if you already experience sensitivity.

The essential oil blend (peppermint, rosemary, eucalyptus, clove, lemon peel) is noticeable. If you’re sensitive to strong flavors, this may feel intense at first.
