♫ I USE MOUTHWASH, SOMETIMES I FLOSS ♫

Advantages: Top quality trusted brand that does what it says
Disadvantages: This may be too strong for someone with sensitive teeth and gums

...♦ Listerine Antibacterial Mouthwash ♦ ♦ ♦ Listerine. Bad for Bacteria. Good For Gums ♦ ♦ The importance of using mouthwash is essential today. There are many additives, sweeteners, and sugars lurking within our foods that we ourselves are sometimes not even aware of. Even though we take every precaution to limit our sugar intake, there are foods on the market that contain large amounts of sugar, and other ingredients ...
...This is where Listerine steps in. Listerine Antibacterial Mouthwash had been around since 1876, and the very fact that is the UK's number 1 best seller says it all really. In it's 'original' form it has to be one of the best mouthwashes out there. ▪The Bottle▪ The bottle is sturdy, it has a great shape, it's solid, and professional looking. I can imagine this sitting comfortably in any Dental surgery or Hospital. I have the 500 ml bottle, ...

An assault on the senses

Advantages: Kills germs and everything else with it!
Disadvantages: the taste, the smell, the endless nightmares...

Listerine and me - our haunted history ************************************************ Even now, at the age of 31 years old with a family of my own, I still wake up screaming in the middle of the night, drenched in a cold sweat, my heart pounding at the memories of my childhood. I can remember, as if it was yesterday, standing, shivering in my nightie in front of the bathroom mirror, being taunted by the inconspicuous bottle of mouthwash perched ...
...once you had expelled the Listerine from your body; spitting the gargled devil juice into the unsuspecting sink below you; The desperation with which you grabbed for the pre-prepared glass of water; The stars you see from behind your closed eyelids as you try to block out the taste, the horrible, horrible taste. Ugghh. There's that shudder down my spine again. So why, having long-since escaped the mouthwash obsessed chains of my parents, do I now ...

Spit or swallow, you decide?

Advantages: Clinically proven to work, has won countless awards, is relatively cheap
Disadvantages: Some say the taste

...mouthwashes is one other than Listerine Antiseptic Mouthwash Original because it is the one my mum always used to buy and because I've never bought anything else. Listerine has also won numerous Oral Care Products of the year and this year is no exception and in doing so it must be a quality product. I buy my Listerine from my local Asda store where it is currently on a buy one get one free offer for the 500ml bottles and for two of those at £4 it ...
...Well like most mouthwashes Listerine is designed to help prevent and reduce the build-up of plaque, reduce the risk of gingivitis which is an inflammation of the gums caused by the build-up of plaque and prevent halitosis. When meeting and greeting people the face, lips and mouth are one of the first things that are noticed because they play the most vital role in communication, whether it is through speaking, helping to form facial expressions, ...

Review of Listerine Antiseptic Mouthwash Original

An american woman got drunk on Listerine

Advantages: prevents you losing your teeth
Disadvantages: horrible taste

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Listerine History ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Listerine was first invented in the 19th century and it was used then as a powerful surgical antiseptic. Some years later Listerine was then sold in a distilled form and used as a floor cleaner and also as a cure for Gonorrhea. Listerine wasn't well known or successful until 1921 when it was advertised as being a cure for chronic halitosis which is the "medical" name for bad breath. For over ...
...it wasn't until 1994 that Listerine started to sell the mouthwash in the plastic bottles which we are all very familiar with. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Packaging ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Listerine is sold in flat rectangular looking plastic bottles which have rounded edges and have a black plastic lid. On the centre of the Listerine bottle there is a rather large white label. This label is mainly white in colour and has ORIGINAL LISTERINE written in black capital ...

"Bad for baceria. Good for gums"

Advantages: Cleans, freshens, fights bacteria
Disadvantages: Tastes ick! unpleasant tingle on the tongue.

...more quickly. Listerine Original- Listerine original mouthwash is designed to kill the germs that cause plaque, bad breath and the disease of the gums- gingivitis, it has antiseptic qualities which when used every 12 hours provides complete 24 hour protection against the germs that cause plaque and gum disease, not just on the teeth you can see but also above the gum line where brushing cannot reach, used properly Listerine Original can help reduce ...
...from doing so. Listerine Original has a safety cap of sorts making it more difficult for children to open the bottle, it is not too complicated for adults though, unlike many medicines and vitamin bottles, simply requiring the smooth panels on the cap to be squeezed in as the lid is turned, this allows the cap to easily come off. This is a good little feature as I know my children in particular are fascinated by all the coloured lotions and potions ...

Swallow? Well it is rude to spit!

Advantages: cheap, refreshing, kills plague, leaves breath fresh, long lasting, smell
Disadvantages: taste

...liberal swirlings of mouthwash. Listerine Original is the first mouthwash I can remember; my mum would always buy it and insist on my sister and me using it first thing in the morning and last thing before turning in for the night. While the dragon adverts associated with the UK's number one selling mouthwash were mildly amusing as a child, the thought of using the mouthwash sent a shiver down my spine. I just did not like it and I hadn't used it ...
...whole host of products and Listerine have a wide range of different mouthwashes from Soft mint which has a mild flavour to the shiver inducing Original. Listerine Antiseptic Mouthwash Original is available in a 500ml bottle and can be found very easily on the shelves of any major supermarket, high street chemist such as Boots, Superdrug or your local pharmacy and convenience stores. I bought mine in Asda earlier this week and paid £4.00 for two bottles ...

Review of Listerine Antiseptic Mouthwash Original

Wash those germs right out of my mouth...

Advantages: Great clean feeling mouth
Disadvantages: Not a great taste or smell

...and fresh, but I feel Listerine has the added benefit of really sterilising your mouth with the added antiseptic. I was first made aware of Listerine about 25 years ago when my younger sister had a blood disorder, which caused huge blisters to form inside her mouth, while experiencing this our doctor advised the use of Listerine for its antiseptic properties. The Story of Listerine…………. Joseph Lister, a British physician, was the first man to use ...
...Warner Lambert Company first marketed Listerine as an antiseptic for use in surgery, first being used by dentists in 1895. By 1914 Listerine was being sold over the counter as the first mouthwash. I hadn't realised until researching this product just quite how old mouthwash was!! I had always been under the impression mouthwash was quite a new, fashionable, trendy item of hygiene. The Claims………… Listerine claims to kill plaque bacteria, even between ...

Good Things Aren't Always Nice

Advantages: Cleans well
Disadvantages: Tastes disguitsing, can be a bit expensive

...bought 2 500ml bottles of Listerine for £4.00 when it was on special offer at Asda. When not on special offer a 500ml bottle of Listerine can be purchased from Tesco, Sainsburys or Morrissons for £2.43, so I had a bit of a bargain. I decided that although this was quite expensive it was worth it as Listerine is a well known brand and boasts impressive results, on the front of the bottle there is a slogan which is also shown on the Listerine television ...

I've Had Nicer Things In My Mouth...

Advantages: Cleansing & Medicinal; No Morning Breath
Disadvantages: Flavour - Swallowing Bleach Might Be More Preferable

...to be a bottle of Listerine I felt quite qualified to have a bash at reviewing it. After all, I hate bad breath and have been known to brush my teeth more than three times in one day; some say I've got a bit of a paranoia about it but usually it's just because I don't like the sensation of having half of yesterday's lunch still stuck between my molars. There are a variety of different mouthwashes available on the market, from a veritable selection ...
...of Johnson & Johnson, all Listerine varieties claim to be clinically proven at reducing plaque by up to 56% over just brushing your teeth alone. And that, basically, is what mouthwash is all about. The Listerine family comes in several varieties. Coolmint and Freshburst add a friendlier flavour to your daily mouth rinsing exercise whilst this one, the Original, has a strong, medicinal taste to it. The taste is somewhere between that of the rinse ...

...Studies have also shown that Listerine reduces 48% more plaque from in-between teeth than brushing and flossing alone. Luckily I found information on how to look after my teeth too, heres the advice I was given!: Step 1 - Brush for two minutes a day with a fluoride toothpaste: * Use a soft or medium toothbrush with synthetic bristles and a small head to reach into tight corners * Hold the brush at a 45 degree angle where the gum-line meets the ...

Review of Listerine Antiseptic Mouthwash Original

Strong stuff

Advantages: Highly concentrated
Disadvantages: the flavour won't be everyone's taste

Listerine is much more concentrated than almost all brands of mouthwash. It's meant to be used diluted (four teaspoonfuls to a glass of water), and therefore will last many times longer than other brands. So although a bottle of Listerene is slightly more expensive than other brands (though not much), it works out cheaper. That is, if you *do* dilute it. In practice, I admit, I often use it neat. When I'm in a hurry, I just can't be bothered to ...
...of toothcare products. Listerine is available in various mint-flavours, but I like it to taste it like healthy stuff rather than like liquidised chewing gum. I guess my tastes are somewhat individual, but there you are. Just how good it is at doing what it promises - providing "24 hour protection against plaque", "fresh breath confidence" and killing "germs that cause dental plaque and bad breath" is difficult to assess. After all, so many other ...

Listerine, not very cool

Advantages: Helps prevent plaque
Disadvantages: Smell, taste.

Listerine Original Antibacterial Mouthwash "Reduces plaque by up to 56% more than brushing alone". Used twice daily original Listerine provides 24-hour protection against plaque and lasting fresh breath confidence. What is supposed to do: Prevent and reduce plaque; kill bacteria between teeth; Freshen breath I don't doubt the claims from Pfizer for Listerine antibacterial mouthwash, but for me the smell and taste are too much and outweigh ...
...this principle is applied to Listerine it most be the best on the market for oral hygiene. Listerine does have loads of testimonials from dental associations but I prefer other brands of mouthwash. I have bought the purple version and I am hoping this will smell and taste better, but as yet I haven't tried it. Listerine is made by Pfizer, it contains Aqua, Alcohol, Benzoic Acid, Poloxamer 407, Eucalyptol, Methyl salicylate, Thymol, Menthol, Sodium ...

Listerine

Advantages: Kills germs ...
Disadvantages: ...and your taste buds!

Original Listerine is probably not the most popular in terms of the taste, however it kills all the bacteria and germs just as well and maybe even better than some of the other flavoured mouthwash. Never again will i be plagued with bad breath because of something i've eaten. So, surely that horrible taste is only a small problem compared to the benefits. Previously i used to chew gum to prevent bad breath, and too much chewing gum can result in ...
...digest the intestine wall with no medium to digest. Therefore this was a perfect solution to my problem. Other benefits include the 24 hours protection against plaque when used twice day, killing germs that cause plaque, gum disease, bad breath and gingivitis. Also, with the American Dental Associations seal of approval, it is a must for all those wanting a perfect smile. ...
