I got this because I have a condition called geographic tongue and when I have flare up's and my taste buds are sore this is a relief. I don't use it every day, only as needed. It tastes kinda gross though

This is great stuff! For my needs at least it works Great I have various rinses and mouthwashes I use, like Act restoring and Listerine, in the past I have used Colgate total mouthwash, this isn't my main mouthwash, but an addition to my cleaning and it does the job I expected.

Works good

UPDATE 6/28/22 I have continued to use this over the last couple years and the rinse is amazing. A few months ago I had a number of canker sores in my mouth and the pain & healing time reduced by using this rinse is amazing. I don't always use it but when I have it's made a difference. I use it religiously multiple times a day for probably two days out of having the sores and the pain is nonexistent for a little while. Then I'll go to 2-3 rinses a day while they're healing. I still use anbesol in between when needed but this totally works. Please get this and you won't regret it.

UPDATE 11/5/2020 I have used the rinse three more times today and my mouth feels ten times better. There's only one more sore in the back of my mouth that still hurts. The rest are there but are not painful and do not make it hard to talk or as difficult to eat. This is some of the best stuff. I also used one more OraSwift Lozenge last night and it helped a little. PLEASE get this for your mouth!!!

11/04/20 That's right. I have eight canker sores in my mouth all at once. One on each part of where my wisdom teeth already came out - so one on each of the four corners of my mouth, one on the left side of my mouth behind the jaw tendon about half the size of a dime, one in front of the tendon, one on the back of the roof of my mouth, and two more on the front of the roof of my mouth. These all developed over a period of about 3 days at once.

I was in EXTREME pain on the night of 11/3/20. I was crying. I could barely eat, and what I tried to eat at my job while on a break hurt like you wouldn't believe. It felt like my wisdom teeth were coming in and bone was pushing through. When I got home I cried my eyes out, swished some of this stuff around for a minute, and put an OraSwift Lozenge on the left side of my mouth. The lozenge helped because it coated the one sore, and the rinse helped with inflammation. I get canker sores frequently and this has been a savior.

I've now been using this mouthwash for the last 22-24 hours or so and my mouth is in way less pain. I have not had to use another lozenge, either. Here's my timeline of swishing:

11/3 10p
11/4 4a (randomly woke up)
11/4 10:15a (before coffee)
11/4 about 11:30a (after coffee, before lunch)
11/4 1:30-2 after lunch
11/4 About 7:50 after dinner

NOW, for the mouthwash itself. It has a minty flavor but also like an intense listerine-type burn. Doesn't taste like alcohol though. The rinse itself foams up so I would pour a little less than what's recommended so you can swish it around your mouth still. PLEASE swish for one minute, it will make a difference. You will want to follow the directions and swish as you normally would with mouthwash, but for sure after eating anything. Even an apple or a single grape or whatever. Just do it, you'll thank me later.

As a canker sore sufferer, this stuff has really done the trick. My mouth is not as inflamed, I can eat without as much pain, and I feel at way more ease without feeling like I'm starving. Speaking of food, because I have so many of them (this has never happened to this extent) I have been eating soft things such as vegetable soups and things like spaghetti cut up because they're easy to swallow and require little to no chewing.

Please get this and use as directed and more. It will be so worth it, I promise you.

My husband uses this every day. It is a very effective product.
