No. In fact, the alcohol is a great disinfecting agent.
Hi
Alcohol mouthwash is not so bad for teeth but rather the oral environment. It provides temporary fresh breath but actually will dry out the mouth. So non alcohol mouthwashes are recorded.
In general, alcohol is very drying and has been reported to be carcinogenic in large quantities or used daily. There are non alcoholic mouthwashes available.
Most mouthwashes have alcohol in them and it’s okay to use.
