      I think it’s just mouthwash (if you mean the stuff you rinse your mouth with afterwards?)

      Ha ha – just seen Jess’ answer! I misread it as “Dentist’s”!! But yes, densest liquid is mercury…

      If you’re thinking densest as in most dense (i.e. thickest liquid before it becomes a solid). At room temperature and pressure the densest liquid is Mercury!
