What mouthwash would you guys recommend? I've started using Tom's of Maine toothpaste from Wholefoods... it is a different sensation and at first the lack of "sting" sort of made my mouth not feel as clean but I've gotten over that. I've heard that biotin is something you want to avoid in mouthwash. What are some good ones that you guys can recommend?

Well I have fairly healthy gums but I guess I'd like to maintain fresh breath throughout the day. Mouthwash hasn't really been part of my routine, I've used it very sporadically. I floss twice a day and brush 3 times a day, but I know that a lot of people also use mouthwash.

pretty much any mouthwash thats hexetidine based will kill any cootie living inside the mouth/throat area.

I use listerine more for gum health, killing germs. I use an indian "aftermint" for breath. not so minty but I think that it is nice.

I use Tom's of Maine Spearmint - It doesn't have the chemicals in it that cause mouth cancer like other mouth washes do.

I use ODOL. Some German stuff I just tried. Seems to be OK.

My Dentist recommends Listerine but I used to use Rembrambt(sp)? before they changed the formula.

Alcohol based mouthwashes are really not the best, so try and avoid if you can. I use Oral-B.

I use the knockoff Listerine. It works alright, I suppose. I tried the Listerine whitening, went through two bottles with absolutely zero whitening effect.

I don't think Listerine is intended to white?

Just drink three to four shots of hard liquor throughout the day. Swish around in your mouth prior to swallowing. Will kill most bacteria.
