maybe a silly question but I am a bit confused!
I was advised that I could only use listerine original or oraldene mouthwash!

my questions being:
1 why?
2 why can I use whatever toothpaste I want?
3 I normally use Plax whitening.. as advised by my dentist as I have problems with placque build up and this keeps my gums healthy! Ok I no I am not eating so less likely to have plaque build up but I kinda in a routine!

Do we get advised to use those two mouthwashes as they are antiseptic or is it due to ingredients!

Not really happy about using them as my dentist advised they discolour my teeth long term! :eek: and dont want that:cry:

would be greatful if anyone can enlighten me on this.... as I find it confusing... its not as if I swallow the mouth wash!!! and as I say there is no guidance on toothpaste... just appears a contradiction really:rolleyes:
