Question: Why did they recommend Listerine.?
I've just had a teeth check-up and they discovered much bacteria in my mouth. I sometimes skip a few days of brushing my teeth. They said I must use Listerine and not Colgate Plax. Why's this.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
Go to the supermarket, grab a bottle of each brand and compare the ingredients. I'd bet they're pretty similar and the Dentist is getting a little shove from Listerine to promote their product. But then again, if the ingredients differ greatly there might be a valid reason they've suggested listerine over Colgate.
I know my Dentist is given perks by Sensodyne to flog their stuff - she's told me outright that this is the case and gives me samples every time I go to try and get me hooked on the stuff. Health Question & Answer

There is always bacteria in your mouth they can't even remove it all. Listerine is probably a different formulation and is better for your mouth than the other.
Most people use mouthwash daily. I don't think its good to do it that often as you are also killing good bacteria. I suggest that you ask your practitioner.Health Question & Answer

Listerine is very effective at removing bacteria.
It's too bad the alcohol dries your mouth out and increases your risk of oral cancer.
Instead of relying on a less effective cleaning method (mouthwash), you'd be much better off brushing twice a day.Health Question & Answer

Listerine is a good mouth wash which also kills bacteria (germs) in the mouth. You must use the mouth wash (Listerine) every day. You need also to floss regularly to remove food particles between your teeth. Health Question & Answer
