What is the concentration of fluoride in a mouth rinse for children if taken daily?

0.01%
0.05%
0.1%
0.2%

The correct answer is: 0.05%

Using a mouth rinse with a concentration of fluoride at 0.05% is generally recommended for children. A concentration that is too high can lead to excessive ingestion of fluoride, which can cause dental fluorosis and other health concerns. Concentrations that are too low may not provide enough protection against tooth decay. Therefore, the other options are incorrect because they either have a concentration that is too low (A and C) or too high (D) for children to use on a daily basis. It is important to follow recommended guidelines and consult with a dentist for further advice on the appropriate concentration of fluoride for children.
