Why was mouthwash not recommended?

My dentist told me once it is better not to rinse after brushing, to leave the toothpaste on the teeth, but I don't usually do that.
Yeah like Ammi and Niamh said basically (oh and Annie). Apparently it's okay to use but not straight after brushing.

If you read the back of the bottle it specifically says to use after brushing twice a day though so there's obviously some disagreement in the industry
