Chlorhexidine interacts with detergents and fluoride in toothpaste. For this reason, it is recommended that fluoride toothpaste be used in the evening before going to bed and chlorhexidine products be using in the morning following normal brushing. The chlorhexidine product should be used 30 minutes after brushing or brushing should be following by rinsing with water before using the chlorhexidine product.
