Oh no! I was about to ask if you were swallowing the Listerine! I thought this was going to be another 1st tri question! I can't stand the smell of Listerine - I wonder if a trip through the laundry will be able to get the smell out?
Ok I have to say this I can not resist...It's my profession taking over AGAIN!
Ok I am not a fan of Listerine...why you ask well its all ALCOHOL!!!..Alcohol is a solvent and it irritates the ?gums..I hate it as a hygienists. It makes my pregnant patients more irritated and more bleeding (also non-pregnant patients)...I say STOP and use a non alchohol rinse OR use a FLUORIDE rinse like ACT with NO alcohol!!! this way you beat the cavities!!!!
Re: Is Listerine ok while pg?
