Does flouride mouthwash actually work?
Question:
Answers:
although it does strengthen teeth and prevent decay, fluoride is actually a poison. it's been proven to be toxic and may very well be a cause of many health issues we have today. it's actually pretty funny how in the us we're so quick to recall chinese toothpaste with toxic chemicals in them and yet we have fluoride in every single toothcare product and even the water!
buy some liquid calcium. the link below is the kind i use and it's 2500 parts per million compared to the usual 1500. it's just really tiny calcium particles in distilled water. put drops of that on your teeth and it WILL repair your enamel & reduce sensitivity. liquid calcium is what's in those "repairing" toothpastes that they've been researching for years, but i seriously doubt it's any good when it's in a toothpaste and what they were researching was probably the cheapest way they could make it and how to market it while only having a tiny amount of actual liquid calcium in it.
it's a really good supplement, too, you can put it under your tongue and it gets absorbed directly into the bloodstream.

You may have gum illness. No. I think that mouthwash is weak as water.Try to use sensodyne tooth paste for your teeth. You may try a sample, if you go to the site and ask for a sample of the tooth paste. I had this problem with my teeth and had to have dentures. You may need to go to your dentist and get your gums checked before it is too late.
Despite various contradicting studies, it has been believed that fluoride does, in fact, strengthen and remineralize enamel. Under the age of 6, ingested fluoride is effective in the development of enamel, but after this, topical treatments can be effective and can also reduce or prevent tooth sensitivity and prevent cavities. There have been studies that indicate that fluoride can be toxic and many believe that it is unnecessary. I think that moderation is key and ifyou don't experience sensitivity or cavities, you don't need much. Sensodyne toothpaste works well to relieve sensitivity.
Try using one of the toothpastes designed to reduce sensitivity first. Fluoride mouthwash is designed for enamel and most sensitivity comes from exposed roots [which are covered with cementum] and they don't respond that well to the fluoride rinses.
