I guess a few mfrs decided to stick this on their bottles. Here's one of several on Amazon:

This is a clone of the デンタルリンス entry.

Saw this on a dentists list of "things mouthwash is commonly marketed as", confirmed on Amazon. Rare in n-grams (unless this has become particularly trendy lately). 

Don't care if [rare] is added, but I think the standard xref does the job. It's been 10 years since the n-grams were collected, and it's a marketing buzzword.  If a modern dentist listed it, it's probably well-enough understood, and it's on several products in the category.
