I started a daily regimen of mouthwash and flossing in addition to brushing and quitting smoking 20 years ago when it finally donned on me that me that it was much less expensive and far better for my health if I took better care of my gums. Using Listerine essentially helped me reverse gum disease and save the teeth I hadn't already lost. My Dentist is very impressed. I don't think she had ever seen someone reverse periodontitis before (though not the damage already done). It's important to remember to rinse thoroughly with water after using a mouthwash, so you neutralize the pH.
Good to quit smoking and start looking after your mouth. I have no doubt you will live longer because of these simple steps in looking after your body.
As far as I can tell, the recommendations are on the screen at 13:42. 'Dentyl Dual Action', 'Dentyl Fresh Protect', 'Listerine Advanced Defence Gum treatment'. Key ingredients are apparently CPC (Cetylpryidinium Chloride) or ELE/ELA (Ethyl Lauroyl Arginate). But they note that clinical trials of these have not been undertaken.
Wow, that bit about RA and mouth bacteria... that is something. Are there other studies confirming this connection? Connections between oral health and body health sure create an argument for dental care to be part of regular medical care.
This is super Informative, thanks. However, I don't completely agree with the Fluoride mouthwash concept. I think it's much deeper than that. We know that the microbiome (gut, mouth, etc.) is a key player in the conext of covid coutcome now. Some studies are suggesting that having a healthy microbiome is key. The fluoride may indeed work as antiviral but it can also work as antibacterial in which it can kill both bad and good bacteria just like oral antibiotics do for treating infections. I wish they could study the oral microbiome in term of covid. I had nearly zero respiratory issues with acute covid but suffered horrible GI symptoms and have been suffering long covid with POTS symptoms.
Just watched him in another video , he was talking about how fascinated he was with Covid 19. This is disheartening to hear Dr's speak like this, as if the world of germ warfare is their playground. Sir, get educated about gain of function and then speak against it, dont gleefully act like you have found a new toy. That is to disrespect many dead.
Not good that successive governments have neglected dentistry services. Thanks for your presentation highlighting the importance of oral health.
This is a direct result of the bureaucratic separation between dentistry and general practice.
Capitalistic, i.e. for profit, not bureaucratic. Glaring example in the USA.

10 days for me!
I’ve heard a lot of mouthwashes are really bad for you. They can cause other health issues

This is an excellent and informative presentation thankyou.
I hope your message can be widely dispersed.

Very interesting! Thank you.
What do you recommend for regular, daily mouth washing?

Please include speech pathologists in this discussion/education
Thank you, that's very illuminating! Is Listerine good or can you recommend an effective mouthwash?
@@grahamlloyd-jones1023 Thank you so much!
CPC being the important ingredient in mouthwashes against Covid, not the fluoride.
