Alcohol-free mouthwashes are an excellent choice for daily oral care, specially designed to be gentle and effective without causing the dryness or burning associated with alcohol, ensuring that the cleaning habit is a pleasant experience for all alcohol-sensitive users.

Who are they recommended for?

Alcohol-free mouthwashes are recommended for various people and situations because their formulation avoids the dryness and irritation that alcohol can cause in the mouth. Here are some specific cases in which these rinses are particularly beneficial:

• People with dry mouth: Alcohol in mouthwashes can contribute to dry mouth, so people who already suffer from dry mouth, often caused by medications, certain diseases or aging, may benefit from alcohol-free rinses.
• Patients with sensitive gums: People with inflamed or sensitive gums, or those suffering from diseases such as gingivitis, usually experience less irritation with alcohol-free rinses, which are gentler and do not cause burning.
• Children and adolescents: Alcohol-free mouthwashes are safer for children over the age of six and adolescents, as the strong taste of alcohol can be unpleasant, and also the risk of irritation to their more sensitive mouth is reduced.

In general, alcohol-free rinses are a gentler and more versatile option for daily oral care and are suitable for anyone looking to minimize the risk of irritation or dryness.
