Mouthwash Recommendations?

Hi - Can anyone recommend safe mouthwash to use?  I prefer the more medicinal ones (like original Listerine) vs. the minty, but at this point, I'd like to hear all recommendations.  

 

Are all mouthwashes (?) gluten-free?  I haven't used one since my Celiac DX, but would like to start again.

 

Thanks.

Many are gluten free.  Just read the ingredients to double check.  I believe Listerine is gluten free.  You can google the mouthwash to read it's ingredients before you go to the store if you'd like.

I made my own for a long time, then out of sheer laziness when Listerine started making the naturals line with one that doesn't have flouride I switched to it. It's perfectly safe. There is also one called Hello that is all natural, but it's like a bazillion dollars a bottle. Beyond this hippie crap I can't be helpful except to say that Listerine informed me that if something is from wheat it'll say so.

I am weird in that I don't like strong mint taste, and I also can't stand the alcohol in most mouthwashes.  I use Closys mouth wash Open Original Shared Link .  It tastes like stale water by itself, and it comes with a mint oil dropper so you can add just a little mint or a lot.  Kills all the germs and such just like the other mouth washes... it is pricey, but you only need a small capful each time so a bottle last a really long time so the price evens out.  Way better than the nasty listerine for me.

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
