I went to Morrisons yesterday and when at checkout the lady put through a bottle of Dentyl mouthwash and then told me I wasn't allowed to buy it as it was coming up as barred, she explained they had been taken of the shelves Does anyone know why this might be? I then went to Tesco and bought it

thing is morrisons have only just got it in they never used to sell it before. So do you think tesco one will be ok?
Bottom line:

Mouth washes that contain alcohol have been associated with mouth cancer....conclusive clinical trials seem to be absent.

Mouth washes that do not contain alchol are fine.

yer dont worry this doesnt contain alcohol. I always check that. I just need to know if tesco have sold me a safe one now
Question Author
but surely no different than drinking alcohol
4get.....when drinking alcohol it is in contact with the lining of the mouth for seconds before swallowing.

Mouthwash recommends swilling in the mouth for 30secs before spitting out.

The crucial factor is the time that the alcohol is in contact with the lining of the mouth.
