Listenine is a very strong tasting mouthwash and makes you feel extremely clean , perfect for a hot date! I have braces Which makes me feel a tad paranoid about oral hygiene, but this product is perfect, it gives results that brushing alone can NEVER achieve ! Admittedly there is a tingly sensation in my gums after using this product but my breath is fresher for longer , my teeth and braces are much cleaner after using it and it's a real confidence boost to know my teeth are shiny clean ! Plus it aids in the prevention of dental cavities which is really purpose of mouth washes. This product has not bleached or stained my brackets or wires, which I understand some dental products can , making it an overall winner for brace faces like me ! So I fully recommend this for a real clean feeling for your precious pearly whites !
