🦷 Is it time to revamp your hygiene routine? 🪥 Get FREE access to the 5 must-have elements for an impeccable oral health routine here: bit.ly/free-oral-hygiene-routine-guide
Honestly the way you explain everything without judgement and with openness and kindness is so comforting. I haven't been to a dentist in about half a decade but that's going to change on Friday. Your channel is helping me get over my extreme fear of dental procedures and dentists in general! I wish I could go to you, currently in STL, but I know I'll be able to find just as kind of dental hygienists here too. Thank you for your channel, your work to provide this information so readily, and your upbeat kindness through it all.
@@bluesky4385 Luckily I was able to find low income clinics that had an even further sliding scale. And there are a bunch of dental students who do cleanings for free under the supervision of a head dentist with certification. If you're in the states, some states have expanded their Healthcare services like Medicare and medicaid. So more people qualify for these things and can get dental care thru Medicare/medicaid.
Alchohol is better if you have canker sore or infection in your teeth cheeks and tooth ache. It will take away the pain only about 10 minutes before if coem back Non alcoholic sucks
A potential con for alcohol free could be the glycerin that's in most of them. It's theorized that glycerin in mouthwash (and toothpaste) can actually contribute to cavities and gum disease. Glycerin is basically a type of sugar and it leaves a film on your teeth. I've been using glycerin free mouthwash/tooth paste for awhile and my dentist said my teeth looked great, when just a year ago they said i was beginning to develop gingivitis.
Always consult a dentist before buying any mouthwash, only they can tell you which is better depending on the health of your teeth and gums. But dentists usually suggest non-alcoholic mouthwashes more often.
I prefer alcohol-free because the kind with alcohol burns. I have to add water into the cupful of alcohol mouthwash to help with that. I switch mouthwashes daily, though I'm not sure if that's beneficial or not.
Thank you for all the videos...I'm trying out alcohol-free mouthwash and picked up a tongue scraper and flossing picks - hoping to reverse my gingivitis before my next cleaning appointment!
Love these videos! Very informative. As a user of Tobacco, I'm fully aware of the fact that maintaining good oral hygiene is all the more important. I use a great portion of the info that comes out of these videos. Peace ✌, Love ❤, and Teeth!!
Namaste 1.) Do not dilute the mouthwash 2.) Rinse covering all parts of the mouth including the sides 3.) Gargle so that it also reaches bacteria in rear portion of your mouth
I just mistakenly bought a alcohol mouth wash 😞 I haven’t watched the video yet but my boyfriend told me it’s best to use non-alcohol. So I’m scared of using the one I bought
I am so happy found you here. Your videos are so great for me to understand more how does dentist work. Is it true every mouth wash can give teeth stain and we should not use at all time except two weeks after treatment have done? My dentist from UK do not recommend me to use mouth wash and recommend just to use salt water instead.
I’ve tried with alcohol and without, and so I stick with no alcohol Listerene brand, it works best for me since it really does help with bad breath (no more bad breath for me). The one with alcohol burns a lot and I don’t like that and you’re right it gives me bad breath because of the alcohol drying my mouth. So really experiment with and without and try for yourself folks.
So probably the best way is antiseptic alcohol mouthwash in the morning so then you will drink water throughout the day and not have a dry mouth, and the fluoride zero-alcohol at night so that your mouth wont be dry over night and the flouride wont be washed away.
I use listerine mouthwash and it does have alcohol and as a nonalcoholic mouthwash I use hydrogen peroxide it works great after you get used to the taste 👅.
Personally I love coconut oil with mint and tea trea oil mixed in as well, it's natural for the body and my other one is any thera breath wash because it's alkaline and doesn't burn
Hi Whitney, another great video, I've recently changed to non alcoholic mouthwash but find it harder to find. Can I ask a question please. I know your not supposed to brush your teeth straight after brushing but is it ok to use mouthwash straight after eating. Hope your well ❤️😁 . Thankyou.
yessss fluoride mouthwashes are often alcohol free! and swishing with water immediately after eating is fine --- and fluoride mouthwash is generally considered fine as well! but always check what your dentist thinks is best for your individual mouth :)
Hi Whitney: the last mouthwash I bought I believe was Crest:pro health nonalcoholic as the Mission at that time did not allow alchohol containing mouth washes. I THOGHT THE crest was great: I swished for 2 minutes then spat out in the sink. I THOGHT AT THE TIME CREST PRO HEALTH WAS PRETTY GOOD. WELL YOU KNOW: THE CUTE GIRL ON THE T.V. AD SOLD IT. ADVERTISING IS POWERFUL! THANKS. BYE!
I just accidentally bought a bottle of the slightly yellow-orange color mouth wash and it says that that contains alcohol. Then, after watching this video, I felt complicated. Should I throw it away and get a new one, or keep it?😩
Don't throw it away what I usually like to do with it is use the mouthwash to disinfect my electric toothbrush head I put it and give it a swish for 30 secs and leave it for about 3 Mins and I feel like it's cleaner :) use it twice a week and I'm sure the bottle will be used up quick.
@@dollyvuitton Ahhh... So it can also use like that? Then, I will use it to clean my tongue cleanser 😋 I'm such a fool. I usually buy the blue one, but that day when I went to the pharmacy and saw many bottles, I decided to try the different ones and randomly bought with the alcohol one 😭
I'm 20 with a lot of saliva since I have a small mouth , so I use the purple listerine in the morning, for now I am gonna switch to the non alcoholic version cause alcohol mouthwash burns me but I have braces so sometimes I can have a bleeding gum , but a simple warm water salt rinse can fix that in couple days. Anyways I use the purple listerine in the morning and a opti rinse 0.2 fluoride rinse at night after waterpik, brushing, scape tongue and flossing
I recently started using alcohol free Listerine in the mornings and I've noticed that I get this pasty something in my mouth later. It feels like the inside of my mouth is peeling off. Any idea what's going on?
Tom's of Maine is a good brand of non-alcoholic mouthwash. I use it because it's natural. I didn't really know it was non-alcoholic until I checked after this video.
Hi Whitney, new subscriber here.This is such an informative channel on dental hygiene... Brilliant! With the subject of mouthwash, and as a person who tries to keep things on the natural mother nature vibe. What are your thoughts on a tea tree essential oil and warm water solution as a natural alternative? Thanks for your expert advice in advance, and keep those fun factual videos coming.... Peace, Love, Teeth. ✌❤😁🙏
I'm actually using 2 right now. I'm using Act (one of the dentists at my office suggested it to help it... I can't remember all the details, but it's because of my acid reflux. I think he said that it'd help protect my teeth with a layer of fluoride) and then I use Biotene for dry mouth
Hey @TeethTalk why when I use without alcohol , I get white skin on my gums and my cheeks and then I can feel the skin falling apart. It’s like when you tear the skin off your lips and you see a white or transparent skin
Hydrogen Peroxide based (Crest Diamond) is much, much better than alcohol based mouthwash's, IMO. Buy the White Bottles, you can see them more and more on the shelves.
I just bought the purple non-alcoholic listerine from Costco and the after taste is disgusting to me, all my water taste sweet even hours later. I cant stand it! costco size is 2 Liters cry😮
No mouthwash for me, but I do get every last particle of food out of my mouth with flossing, water flossing and brushing. And I don't eat any animal products because they stink -- especially cheese!

Its the Dental Bill I'm afraid of not the visit itself.

Me, every time I use mouthwash: "The burn means it's working!"
Same thing with a cut
Alchohol is better if you have canker sore or infection in your teeth cheeks and tooth ache.
It will take away the pain only about 10 minutes before if coem back
Non alcoholic sucks
@@Melodie_Info3 I use non alcohol
@@Diamondr11Blue doesn't work but okay go ahead
@@Melodie_Info3 it works slower..
Aww my 4 yr old is so impressed by your videos, “wow she’s the best dentist in the whole wide city!”
Awwwwwww thank you so much for telling me this!!!

Are they going to pay me for my time. If not, then it's just a scam for them to get money for something you 100% don't need to ask a doctor about.
Ive done the research before and I know which is better for me, but love watching the videos regardless!
I prefer alcohol-free because the kind with alcohol burns. I have to add water into the cupful of alcohol mouthwash to help with that. I switch mouthwashes daily, though I'm not sure if that's beneficial or not.
Starting at 3:38? Gratitude!
I want a heart from Whitney 😭❤️
She made me realise the importance of dental hygiene,❤️

I use the brown listerine
want to learn more about the different mouthwashes?! here's my article: teethtalkgirl.com/videos/is-alcohol-mouthwash-bad
hope this helps :)
Namaste
1.) Do not dilute the mouthwash
2.) Rinse covering all parts of the mouth including the sides
3.) Gargle so that it also reaches bacteria in rear portion of your mouth
I advice my patients not to use mouth wash as a way of avoiding proper brushing.

The dirtier your mouth is, the more it burns.
Great video, Was looking for this video for ages.
I always use listerine original or mint in the morning and listerine whitening at night

Daily - No alcohol
Night time when i sometimes feel my gums are sensitive - Periogard
I recently started using non-alcoholic and I've noticed this white film between my gums and cheeks. Can someone please tell me what this is?

Thanks for this vlog, after watching this I'm going to to give Listerine alcohol free a try instead.
Smile/ teeth goals omgggg
I started using ACT kids watermelon mouthwash and it’s so good!!! Have you bought it before? I remember you said you loved it.
yessssss and I'm into the cinnamon too :)
I love mouth wash been using it since I was in high school 😍
I use alcohol free mouthwash
Therabreath healthy gums
What is the best one for zirconium crowns please? Alcohol or none alcohol
Do a video on how to get into hygienist school, great video of course
So use alcohol once in a while like a few times a year and use alcohol free for regular use?
I simply use alcohol free because I don’t drink
Same here
Isn't the acidity of alcohol mouthwashes a problem? Shouldn't you use higher ph, alkaline washes instead?
yess that too! here's my video that explains -- hope this helps: ua-cam.com/video/5aV1EeM9m-A/v-deo.html

Thank you for the insight
I'm 20 with a lot of saliva since I have a small mouth , so I use the purple listerine in the morning, for now I am gonna switch to the non alcoholic version cause alcohol mouthwash burns me but I have braces so sometimes I can have a bleeding gum , but a simple warm water salt rinse can fix that in couple days. Anyways I use the purple listerine in the morning and a opti rinse 0.2 fluoride rinse at night after waterpik, brushing, scape tongue and flossing
I used mouthwash at one point in my life. Never found it necessary, and just threw the rest out.
Lucky man
I use the blue listerine zero for years now!
Thanks for the video!
PEACE✌ LOVE ❤ AND TEETH 🦷
I recently started using alcohol free Listerine in the mornings and I've noticed that I get this pasty something in my mouth later. It feels like the inside of my mouth is peeling off. Any idea what's going on?
here's a video of mine that might help (regarding cheek peeling): ua-cam.com/video/2mA1h5CPN-Y/v-deo.html
Tom's of Maine is a good brand of non-alcoholic mouthwash. I use it because it's natural. I didn't really know it was non-alcoholic until I checked after this video.
That is not an antiseptic
Can you do a video on those teeth guard looking toothbrushes? Do they work?
YAY SO EXCITED!!
How about Cetylpyridinium Chloride? It’s in my Colgate mouthwash.
here's my video more about CPC -- hope this helps: ua-cam.com/video/277VRQM6rXg/v-deo.html

The mint burns just as bad as the alcohol. I'm stuck with bubblegum flavor.
how about closys or therasol?
What a gorgeous woman...That smile is addicting...Her dental info is great too...
What about using hydrogen peroxide as mouthwash?
not daily! it can cause black hairy tongue if overused! video coming out soon all about this!
I'm actually using 2 right now. I'm using Act (one of the dentists at my office suggested it to help it... I can't remember all the details, but it's because of my acid reflux. I think he said that it'd help protect my teeth with a layer of fluoride) and then I use Biotene for dry mouth
Any thoughts on those TikTok hacks. Especially that one when people mix toothpaste and mouthwash in a pump.
I heard that exposing the toothpaste to light can cause it to break down
Hey @TeethTalk why when I use without alcohol , I get white skin on my gums and my cheeks and then I can feel the skin falling apart. It’s like when you tear the skin off your lips and you see a white or transparent skin
Idk if you’ve talked about this before, but how do you feel about coffeee on teeth health?
here's my video about that -- hope this helps: ua-cam.com/video/B8XEdIXeH8s/v-deo.html :)
I use act restoring mouthwash
I thought about this a couple of weeks ago😀
I heard that it can cause a driver to fail a sobriety test as well!
Thats not true
@@Emstacksze.mwell kinda is true but anyways sobriety test are not very accurate
Maybe I’ll use the alcohol one once or twice per week and the non the rest
Of the time
Shouldant use it full stop
Generic purple alcohol free for me. Says mint but I swear the after taste is cinnamon.
ACT Restoring Zero Alcohol!
Feellllll the burnnn!!!!!!
noooooooooooo
I can only use alcohol free mouth waste . I get a better clean and it doesn’t burn at all
You said, Alcohol containing mouthwash? Do you mean they add mouthwash to alcohol?
oooh “Alcohol-based mouthwash” got it!!!
Hydrogen Peroxide based (Crest Diamond) is much, much better than alcohol based mouthwash's, IMO. Buy the White Bottles, you can see them more and more on the shelves.
Yep… I got oral cancer from my mouthwash…. Not the 6 alcoholic drinks I drink every week 😂
I just bought the purple non-alcoholic listerine from Costco and the after taste is disgusting to me, all my water taste sweet even hours later. I cant stand it! costco size is 2 Liters cry😮
Peace love teeth, amazing 😊
thank you for watching :) :) :)
“I’m not telling you which one to get, but here are the reasons you’ll want to get alcohol free mouthwash”
I usually take the alcohol FREE in everything, and jus pick up a free bottle of rum 😏😉
Pls can u prescribe an alcohol free mouthwash
product reccs in bottom bar -- hope this helps!
Alcohol mouthwash is excruciating to use for me it burns so bad I spit it out after 8 seconds and hyperventilate it's crazy lol
COULD ALCOHOL MOUTHWASH CAUSE GINGIVITIS ?
If it doesn't have alcohol in it then it's not doing anything.
I think you like alcohol free better😁
U are Cute and Well informed >> all about teeth! Good video's!
Alcohol can promote teeth staining.
PEACE LOVE TEETH 🦷 🌈❣️🪥🦷✨
so your videos confuse me, do you have short hair, red hair, long hair? Please end this debate... lol 😂🤪
LOL! I've changed it alot over the years! Current hair is brunette and long :)
No mouthwash for me, but I do get every last particle of food out of my mouth with flossing, water flossing and brushing. And I don't eat any animal products because they stink -- especially cheese!
U speak very fast plz speak slow
Con: Cannot drive immediately after using alcohol mouthwash if you don't want to risk suspending your license for drunk driving.
You’re not suppose to drink it. Only swish it in your mouth.
Woah is this true?
