Or is it just specific flavor? I heard it affects gum

I just want to know which mouthwash is the best to use.

there any out there that kill germs, contain flouride, fight gingivitis and plaque, reduce tartar,etc? I know Listerine works well but does it contain (fluoride to fight cavities)? It is strong and when I use it, the tissue in my mouth starts to loosen (a lot of white tissue gets loose). Listerine now has the Vanilla Mint so maybe it wouldn't be as harsh on my mouth as the others. Also, I saw commercials for Crest Pro-Health and they claim it has a lot of benefits.

it work if I use Colgate Tartar Control toothpaste or should I use the Crest Pro-Health toothpaste and mouthwash combination. I also saw ACT mouthwash which contains a lot of fluoride, but does it help with other things such as gingivitis, plaque, tartar,etc. What would anyone recommend that I use? Thanks!

my gums started to swell and bleed easily lately. i think it's gingivitis.

earliest appointment i can get with a dentist is in a month and i am getting scared that the gingivitis will progress to something worse like periodontitis.

a month of waiting cause me to lose my teeth?!

Okay, I'm kinda freaking out.

I'm over-reacting, but last night I was flossing my teeth and I happened to nudge one of my lower central incisors(bottom two front teeth) and a little bit of gum came off, thus leaving more tooth shown on one side than the other(gum recession I believe). A few hours later, towards my left wisdom teeth (I never got them removed, they're fine) my gums got a little swollen and soft.

up with this? I brush my teeth every day and my teeth are pretty white. Is it gingivitis? My biggest concern is: Will the gum around the lower central incisor grow back at all? Or will it stay lower than the other one forever? There wasn't really any blood or anything, it just kinda came off. It's not bad or deep, it just looks uneven upon examination, and it's driving my “facial OCD” insane.

help, if it won't grow back, is there any dental work I can get to even it out? Any advice or answers is appreciated. Thanks.

should i still brush my teeth even though it makes them bleed heaps? its really annoying, i cant eat anything. i think i might have got it because i got a really bad mouth infection ulsers stuff everywhere.

been using listerine brushing my teeth with my finger ahaha. flossing.. its kind of working.. should i just wait? thanks :]

I was wondering if Listerine is any better than other mouthwashes. Listerine's ads claim that their mouthwash protects teeth and gums for 24 hours and reverses gingivitis.

the active ingredients in Listerine superior to other mouthwashes. Also, which active ingredients should I look for in a mouthwash.

so much!

I have gingivitis and I wanna help it by flossing.

I can't seem to get the floss in between my teeth.

I can if I REALLY stick it in there.

I have this crazy fear that it will get stuck in my teeth.

other type of floss I should use or something?

I was looking at my cats teeth because the vet told me that my kitten that i got fixed has gingivitis. So i was looking at my cats's gum/teeth and also i found that in my 3 year old cat she has loose/crooked teeth the small ones on the bottom in the front and she has some missing im really scared that it might be a disease.

as paradont or so.

suggestions? i know im going to take her to the vet once i get some money but in the mean time idk what to do,

Well I am 15 and turning 16, and i think i am either really mentally ill or i have an eating disorder? Well i am going to a trial soon and i am the victim and my brother is the perpetrator, so lately it makes me feel good to throw up, but i don't want my parents to know so after while i throw up i run the bath tub. my aunt and i were talking tonight and she knows that i have had gingivitis since like 1 week ago,but she never thought anything of it until tonight but she asked the question have i been throwing up and i was like.”um.well.no” and she is like “are you”And im like “sometimes. “so anyways she knows now and i am really scared she will tell somebody because like a year ago i got sent to a mental hospital because of this.so i am like really scared.

Already taking into consideration that it stinks and stains, could it kill germs and gingivitis in your teeth/gums if you smoke regularly? (serious question!) I knoooow it just ads to the problems. It stains, it stinks and it's addictive. However, will it kill germs?
