A mouthpiece must be cleaned from time to time. Soap and water are enough to remove any residuals that build up after some time. Use a special brush in order to clean the inside of your back bore.

Therefore, it is good practice to place your mouthpiece in a pouch instead of letting it out in your instrument’s case.
