Advantages: clean teeth, fresh breath and healthy gums
Disadvantages: you may find it too strong
It?s important to look after your teeth and brushing at least twice a day is recommended to keep them clean and healthy, but it?s not only brushing teeth that?s important, flossing and using mouthwash is too. Listerine is a good mouthwash to use, it?s made by Pfizer Consumer Healthcare and come?s in two different flavours.Original and Coolmint. I prefer the coolmint which is a light blue colour and smells and tastes of spearmint. The Original one?s are a sort of light yellow colour. It comes in a clear plastic bottle with a black twist off lid and will cost you around two pounds in Safeways, but I have bought it cheaper for 1.40 in Bodycare shops. I have also found it in the pound shops but it usually sells out quickly in them. Listerine is accredited by the British Dental Association, the bottles are 500ml and the lid is childproof, you have to squeeze the sides of it, then twist before it opens. If you use this twice a day it will help to reduce plaque and freshen your breath as it kills the bacteria in your mouth, this helps to keep your gums healthy. The best time to use it is in the mornings and evenings, but I use it if I?m going out as well, because it freshens the breath and makes you feel refreshed and confident. All you need it about half a capfull of the mouthwash, sip it, but don?t swallow it, swish it around in your mouth getting it between your teeth. Do this for as long as you can handle it because the coolmint is very hot in your mouth and will make your mouth salavate, gargle with it to freshen breath, then spit it out into the sink. You will notice straight away that your teeth feel smooth and clean and that your breath is really fresh, especially when you breath in. I love the way it seems to wake you up and make?s you feel good. This is not suitable for children under 12 and must be kept out of childrens reach. Don?t dilute it, swallow it or swig it from the bottle.If you have bad breath and this doe
sn?t help it to go away, do go to the dentists and tell them of the problem, it may be that you need other treatment instead. If your worried about bad breath, gum disease or other oral health issues then you can visit these web sites for information. ADA.org Where you can find information about Bad Breath (Halitosis) There is also an A-Z of oral Health Topic?s which may be of some use to you, things like how to clean your teeth and gums. The ADHA Online Where you can visit to their site and look at their site map for a list of Dental information like. Proper Brushing, Flossing, Fluoride Facts, Oral Health Nutrition and lots of other topic?s. I hope this has been of some help, keep smiling.
