The antibacterial properties of a 0.50% stannous fluoride mouthwash and a 0.27% sodium fluoride mouthwash of equivalent fluoride ion concentration (0.12%) were examined using standard bacteriologic plate count procedures. The stannous fluoride solution produced a significant bacterial effect, but the bactericidal activity of the sodium fluoride solution was negligible.
