I have rather bad teeth and so am extremely careful with them, and put a lot of effort into finding the best products; therefore I settled on CariFree. There are a number of reasons why this is absolutely superior to ordinary mouthwashes such as those from Crest or Listerine. 1) This is alkaline. People often think that your teeth get back because of sugar; this is not the case. The sugar feed bacteria which then metabolize it to produce acid. It is therefore quite obviously desirable to neutralize this acid, which spikes after eating any food but particularly after eating/drinking sugary or acidic drinks (sugar free sweets are often full of acids to give a "sour" flavor). Most mouthwashes are actually acidic, as you can find upon a quick google search; according to Frey Smiles' blog, Listerine is around pH 4 and Crest Pro-Health around 4.7. Neutral is pH 7. CariFree is pH 8. 2) This has no alcohol. Alcohol is generally not good for you; it's been linked with oral cancer, and definitely can cause dry mouth. Also, it just feels nasty in your mouth. 3) This is antibacterial without staining. Xylitol is a generally effective antimicrobial, antiviral, and antifungal agent. Some studies do say you should not eat xylitol, but this is a rinse, not a gum. The other main antimicrobials are alcohol and cetylpyridinium chloride. Alcohol is bad for the reasons we've mentioned; CPC, on the other hand, can cause awful tooth staining (and it did this for me). 4) This has fluoride. Many rinses do not- you have to look carefully on the package. Tooth enamel is a mineral that consists of calcium, phosphate, and hydroxide ions. In solution, as in your saliva, these ions are constantly popping off and on, but at a very low rate (acidity increases this rate, however). Fluoride ions are more electronegative than hydroxide ions, and so they pop back in instead of hydroxide and hold the structure together more tightly (decreasing the rate at which they pop off). In terms of usage, I also enjoy its flavor, and the fact that it isn't full of useless or possibly harmful dyes, scents, or other additives like most other mouthwashes. It's pretty straightforward: a bunch of really important ingredients that work together well. I also might add that although this product is very expensive, it was developed off real science; the likes of Listerine are products that have been sold in forms very similar to their current form for years. CariFree has a hard time competing with these big companies, but they do offer better products. Finally, I'd recommend looking into their remineralizing toothpaste. As I mentioned, your enamel has three ions that exist in a solubility equilibrium in your saliva: calcium, phosphate, and hydroxide (replaced by fluoride). It makes sense, therefore, that just adding one of these ions is not enough if you want to actually strengthen your teeth. CariFree's toothpaste contains bioavailable sources of calcium and phosphate ions, allowing your tooth enamel to actually rebuild, rather than just dissolve at a lower rate. I hope this helps you all. Review: Works - I've been using this mouthwash daily and really like it. The mint flavor is fresh and clean without being overpowering, and it leaves my mouth feeling refreshed for hours. I appreciate that it's designed to help prevent cavities while supporting overall oral health. My dentist recommended it, and it's become an easy addition to my daily routine. It's gentle, effective, and gives me confidence that I'm doing a little extra to protect my teeth between dental visits. ## Features - [WIN THE BATTLE AGAINST TOOTH DECAY]: Do you ever wonder why some of us continue to get cavities despite meticulous oral hygiene, whereas others who rarely brush and floss do not? The risk of cavities varies from person to person and is based on eating and drinking habits, hygiene (brushing and flossing), saliva flow, as well as other factors. *NEW LOOK, same great formula! Formerly known as CariFree CTx3 Rinse* - [PROTECT YOUR ENAMEL]: The CariFree Maintenance Rinse contains 0.05% sodium fluoride, which helps prevent tooth decay and white spots.

I love the grape flavor! **Q: What are the full ingredients in the grape rinse? is the grape organic? what is the pH of the grape rinse?** A: The full ingredient list for the CariFree CTx3 Rinse Grape is: Water, xylitol, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, sodium fluoride, artificial flavor (grape), sodium bicarbonate. The grape flavored rinse does not have natural flavoring it is artificial. However, the CTx3 Rinse in mint does have natural flavoring. The pH of the CTx3 Rinse is an 8. **Q: Can this be used in a waterpik? What would the ratio be?** A: I view this item to be a ‘use full strength’ product. It’s simply a product I rinse with twice per week. I use it as I would a mouthwash and I use a regular mouthwash the other days. If I were to use this product in a Waterpik, I would just pour in the amount I wanted to use and begin. I would not dilute. To my knowledge, there is no dilution guide for this product. It’s is a ‘use full strength’ mouth rinse. As a mouth rinse, I use about 1/4 ounce per rinse. A bottle lasts me approximately 32 weeks. Used in a Waterpik, I see this 16 oz bottle being used up very quickly because a waterpik uses approximately 5 ozs of product (water or specific oral rinse) every 30 seconds of use. Hope this is somewhat helpful. **Q: Is this product ADA certified?** A: The CariFree product line falls into the professional products category and the ADA does not have a certification for professional products at this time. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent if you understand the science behind it. *by T***. on January 4, 2016* CariFree offers a carefully thought out line of products geared more earnestly towards improving your oral health than any other company I have encountered.
