Listerine everyday.
Is it ok to substitute brushing at night with Listerine everyday? If not, how often can one use Listerine mouthwash?

Never a substitute to brushing.
Brush minimum twice a day, after food. Use proper brushing strokes.
Moutheash:hexidine,
Once in every 2 or 3 days, after meal, 5-10 drops maximum in your mouth, hold for next 2-3 minutes, mouth will salivate automatically once mouthwash is held in mouth (so no need of external dilution with water) spit out and do not eat drink anything or rinse mouth for next 15-20 minutes. And brush off teeth thoroughly after 20 minutes.

Its not good. Mouthwash not remove plaque formation on tooth surface
Toothpaste is the better choice.
Mouth wash kills gems and bacteria.
Every day use of mouth wash is not good. It kill all good and bad bacteria.
