Question by : Why are some dentists against using Listerine mouthwash?
I was told recently by my dentist that I should ever use it and instead switch to scope or crest pro-health. Why? I asked him and never got a satisfactory answer. I hate that crestpro-health, nasty stuff. I’ve used listerine for years and never had trouble from it. So what’s the bad rep lately?

I think, it may because of the high Alcohol content. It dries your mouth out.

Question by Xcaliber: Could rinsing with listerine antibacterial mouthwash too often cause a bonded tooth to wear down?
I had a chipped front tooth so the dentist built it back up and it looks and feels normal now. However, a week ago I got a “wound” in the mouth and was told to rinse with antibacterial listerine after everything I put in my mouth.
Now a week later, I can feel the “cement” or “bonding” on the back of the tooth and i’m afraid the listerine is breaking it down.
Is this plausible? What should I do?

Best answer:

Answer by Dr H
no never heard of it. your bonding is loose but not because of listerine. call your dentist for an evaluation. If you call sooner than later, they’ll most likely replace for free.

Question by fzero22: Should you rinse your mouth with water after using Listerine mouthwash?
After rinsing my mouth with listerine, my mouth burns. Just wondering if i can rinse my mouth with water to get rid of the burning sensation?

Answer by Ashen Angel
I don’t use mouth wash. I brush my teeth around four times a day and then add sea salt to my final rinse water. It kills any bacteria and keeps the teeth healthy and white.
