Listerine - consumer reviews
Our family always uses mouthwash. We used a lot of different products, but as a result we stopped at Listerine total care 6 in 1. We chose the lilac color option, because blue is very hard to use. Although the result is the same. This remedy is not as burning and caustic as most others. It acts very gently and gives you a feeling of freshness all day long. It is enough for a long time, because it is not necessary to get a mouthful of rinse. Quite quite a bit.
We use Listerine mainly for the prevention of gum disease. My husband's gums are bleeding, so he often uses rinse. This remedy helps him very well. After brushing and rinsing, the mouth becomes perfectly clean. I used to constantly form a tartar on the enamel. After the last cleansing, Listerina began to use, and for two years now there are no stones. This result speaks for itself.
I started using Listerine rinse quite by accident. They gave it to me as a gift in the online store.Mouthwash products I buy very rarely. Mostly my husband uses them because he smokes. The fact that the rinse can protect the gums, I did not believe. But the gift decided to try. Means turned out to taste good. Before use, it must be diluted, so carefully read the instructions. Otherwise, you can burn the mucous. Since the rinse needs to be diluted, it is consumed very slowly. A bottle of 95 ml I used for a whole month. At the same time mouth rinsed daily.
The effect claimed by the manufacturers was amazing! My gums often bleed, and here I have been for two weeks, as I forgot about them. I want to buy a couple more bottles, but already large ones. Especially in our supermarket they are now discount. Another plus is flacon opening system. It will not open until you press on the cover and turn it. I calmly leave the rinse on the sink, knowing that my daughter cannot reach it and try it. If someone has problems with the gums, in my review I want to recommend them to use Listerine.
My husband is constantly struggling with the bleeding of his gums, so we purchased Listerine rinser for him with mint. The manual was written that it reduces bleeding and inflammation of the gums, destroys harmful microbes. A bottle of blue liquid and a volume of 250 ml cost only 80 rubles. The smell of the product was mint and was pleasant. It consists of water, alcohol and some other chemical charms. Children under 12 years old can not use Listerin for sure.
As it was written, so we diluted the tool. On a glass of water - four teaspoons. Used after brushing your teeth in the morning and evening for a month. With the bleeding gums from her husband, this remedy has failed. I liked it for the freshness in the mouth, which remains after rinsing the mouth.
I got acquainted with this product quite recently, and this acquaintance was not very pleasant. For more than a year, my friend has problems with gums. Things reached the point that he could not chew food, because they began to loose teeth. The gums are so inflamed that he has excluded hot and cold foods and drinks from his diet. After them, his mouth began to hurt. Doctors prescribed a rinse extract of propolis and calcium. Nothing helped. The gums ached more and more.
One of our friends recommended to try a mouthwash for Listerine. We didn’t really believe in it, but a miracle happened! A week later, my friend drank cold water, hot tea and chewed apples. Now we all use this tool for prevention. About problems with gums forgotten completely. I advise everyone to try.
In my review I want to tell you about the Listerine rinse "Gum protection". My opinion about him is ambivalent. On the one hand, it is a fairly effective tool that prevents the formation of plaque on the teeth and protects the gums. But his taste is so nasty and hearty that when rinsing my mouth I even had tears in my eyes. Began to dilute it with water, but tongue sting anyway.
When my husband put this conditioner in his mouth, he first thought that he was mistaken with a bottle and started rinsing his mouth with some kind of household chemicals. True, acting Listerine is actually effective. Already after several uses, my gum inflammation decreased. However, I believe that oral care should be pleasant. With Listerine rinse, this is not possible. Therefore, I will not use it anymore, and I do not want to recommend it to anyone.
There is a lot of debate about whether or not oral rinses are safe. But I can’t refuse to use these products, because I love the fresh breath that they provide for almost a whole day. Therefore, past the novelty Listerine "Green Tea" could not pass.It differs from its fellows with a taste of green tea and a greenish tinge. Bottle, not quite harmless composition and burning sensations after its use are almost the same as for all products of this manufacturer.
The manual says that Listerin of this line will help fight gum inflammation, strengthen tooth enamel and prevent the formation of caries. Children under six years old do not recommend using it, although I believe that even after six years, children should not use it. Adults recommend it to everyone. Its thermonuclear taste is worth suffering, in order to have a fresh breath and forget about the problems of the oral cavity.
