Loaded question?
Any rinse is only an 'adjunct' to proper brushing, flossing, not
smoking, and having a good diet. They will not do much on their
own.
Chlorhexadine rinses seem to have the greatest effect, but alter taste
and stain teeth.
Listerine kills a lot of 'bugs', but has a high alcohol content.
Peroxide may not be a good chemical to be in contact with oral tissues
on a daily basis.
A lot of mouthwash is more 'flush and flavor' than anything else.

Well, I am the nut that thinks I know the answer. But with all the flak on
the theory that means the most to me (stimulants have a mind/body connection
and destroys life) and not a breakthrugh on that subject (except one that I
cannot reveal) I say nuts to the world on the subject of gum health.
Except if there were a way to buy the company and finance my first priority.
Sounds as nuts as I seem to everyone (or almost everyone)_ and selfish to
boot. This post is probably not the most intelligent one to put forth,
but one theory is not believed and so the second goes not said as it might
make me seem twice as loony. Am I the ultimate idiot? Should I post
this? I shouldn't, but I will.
