Yeah a ton are acidic, but I know Carifree and Therabreath are pretty alkaline. Not only that, but a lot of them contain alcohol which causes dry mouth. And a lot of anti-bacterial mouthwashes have the ability to disrupt the oral microbiome balance as they kill BOTH bad and good bacteria. I would ditch the mouthwash altogether and just brush and floss, take an oral probiotic (promotes good bacteria) and chew xylitol gum (inhibits bad bacteria).

Also if the antiseptic one is acidic and you brush right after using it, you will erode your enamel, as the acid weakens the enamel. It takes quite a few minutes to restore the pH in your mouth and for your enamel to be back to normal. That's why you should not brush right after having orange juice or other acidic foods.

The 2 mouthwashes that I like the most are: 1. Trisa Revital Sensitive - non-alcoholic, contains xylitol and fluoride 2. Eludril protect - again xylitol and fluoride They are perfect with mild taste that I use after every meal but not when I clean my teeth with a toothbrush and toothpaste. I cannot floss my teeth, because I don't have spaces between the teeth, so I use fluid floss device (Philips Airfloss) and I only use alcohol based mouthwash for it when I use it during the day. If I use alcohol-based mouthwash before going to bad, I wake up with severe dry mouth.

@rie9823 - One can always wing it if they want. It's hard to just recommend shit, because these brands have a thousand different very similar mouthwashes, at slightly different price-points, and the video ideally needs to be applicable in the future, rather than being partially dated once new products come out. Unless it's a video specifically dedicated to which mouthwash to buy, which she did mention her video on. For someone who is purely trying to figure out which one to buy, I don't think "ending the debate on mouthwash" is the video to click. Then the thumbnail referencing teeth staining and mouthwash causing cavities. Though, even in her video on which mouthwash to buy, I still don't think she really gave specific recommendations, because there's too much shit out there, so it's quicker and easier to just give someone the tools to figure out what they need in a product for their specific situation, and then they can pick whatever one that fits that knowledge, and the video stays relevant. Checking the description is often a fast way to see what's up, though. For me, I went with the purple Listerine Total Care one in the zero alcohol version. I think that's the most general, well-rounded, maybe most useful mouthwash in that brand, that avoids having alcohol. She often uses an ACT one, and as long as it has fluoride and is anti-cavity, rather than anti-septic (generally), then I don't think she really gives much of a shit which mouthwash it is. She likes the red ACT one because she likes cinnamon lol. Sorry I type so much. I just go on and on forever.

Using a flouride mouthwash before brushing won't harm your teeth, but it will do less good than if it's your large step, since you'll just brush the mouthwash off your teeth again. My routine is Tounge Scrape -> Floss -> Brush -> Rinse -> Flouride Mouthwash and it's done wonders for me.

So I pretty much permanently have texture on the gums above my front teeth. Sometimes one or two of the texture bumps will turn whitish but it is easily scraped off. My dentist told me to stop using any kind of mouthwash because it was killing the good bacteria and allowing yeast to grow. I did what he said and it hasn't helped at all. It doesn't look like thrush and it is only ever on the gums and not the tongue. Both my dentist and ENT have said it doesn't look like leukoplakia or anything, but it is still irritating to always have these little sand paper looking bumps above my front teeth. I am definitely team "leave the toothpaste on" but I would love to be able to incorporate mouthwash back in as well.

@sayto_00 Жыл бұрын

Old comment but, you might've gotten scammed. Did you get a second/third dental opinions? If you did and all agreed it was necessary, then disgard what I'll say next. Some dentists love to do the root canal then a crown to maximise the profits, and will likely attempt to do it again. So if you haven't already, seek the advise of one or two more dentists (youtube comment won't help since nobody has access to your mouth / xrays). Why two? Because the dental field is less regulated and there's less accountability than the medical field. Ideally dentists should be outside the network (they're less likely to lick each others boots and give you an honest answer).

The theory goes that they cant metabolise the Xylitol and get energy from it but they treat it as sugar so they feed on it and as a consequence they die, so with enough consumption their population should go away with regular hygiene. Im also interested to know if Sorbitol can contribute to tooth decay, because I saw a study posted on the website of a company that produces Xylitol products that claims that Sorbitol can be digested by acid producing bacteria and many toothpastes contain the stuff!

I used mouthwash 3 times in my life and on all three, I got cavities, not on one but multiple teeth. I had to get fillings and am forever scarred, never going to use one in this life whether it causes cavities or not.

I have so many problems - my mouth is naturally acidic, i'm prone to cavities and have to have cleanings every 3 months, i'm in the 3% of cetylpyridinium chloride teeth staining (all confirmed by my poor dental hygenist and dentist) AND I'm allergic to sodium lauryl sulfate (which is in 80% toothpastes and mouthwashes). NOW I have to worry about my mouthwash acidity too 😭😭😭 Will there ever be a perfect mouthwash for me 😭

Try toothpaste tabs like Bite. It has limited ingredients but still contains either fluoride or hydroxyapatite.

@komfykoala6083 Жыл бұрын

If you have a naturally acidic mouth, you might want to do an oral microbiome test as you likely have an abundance of acid-producing bacteria in your mouth. That will address the root cause, usually by adding an oral probiotic and xylitol chewing gum to promote good bacteria and kill bad ones. But if you're looking for products, I know Carifree and Therabreath have alkaline mouthwashes.

How come some oral care products are shown to have serious disadvantages, like the ones you described associated with alcoholic mouthwashes, but they're still "ADA Accepted" or whatever? I know it's probably impossible to try and put Listerine out of business at this point, but if the ADA didn't endorse their alcoholic products, then maybe fewer people would buy them. I just know almost every average consumer, including myself, trusts that that seal is granted in good conscience with the science to back it up.

@kylet6612 7 ай бұрын

listerine is the best that's why they try to hurt their business. new mouthwashes out there all contain whitening which is bad.

I actually have been encouraged to use mouthwash (alcohol free. I use Act) after I have an acid reflux episode. I feel like my mouth burns, but I know it's acid reflux. How do you find the pH on your mouthwash?

@TeethTalk Жыл бұрын

yessss! alcohol-free is good!!! it's sometimes extremely hard to find on google but that's what I usually do! I've linked the few that I found to be good in my description box. but in the future I definitely want to do a science experiment to test them all at home and let everyone know my findings!

As long as you spit properly the little bit of floruide in your mouth won't cause any harm, if your really concerned than have a spit cup and don't swallow any saliva for 5 minutes.
