Ratings and Reviews
- Rated 1 out of 5 by mckendall244 from Negative results I bought this recently, used it daily, and after a day or two I got oral thrush. My thoughts are maybe it’s because it has sucralose and no alcohol in it? After a few days of still using, hoping the oral thrush would be killed by it, it got worse. I stopped use, and the oral thrush went away within a couple days. I’d be wary of this certain product. I’ve had good experiences with other Listerine products without sucralose.

  Rated 5 out of 5 by Salal from Listerine Cool Mint Zero Works For Me. I purchased two one litre bottles a month ago. I do have gingivitis. This product has taken away a terrible breath in the morning. I feel it has worked very well in keeping further bone decay at bay.

  Rated 1 out of 5 by VeeS from Caused peeling and numbness from single use! I bought this product recently on my dental hygienist's recommendation. Used it last night as advised on the bottle. Woke up this morning with lots of white strings of peeled skin in my mouth and numbness - can't taste any food. Definitely will not be using this again!

  Rated 5 out of 5 by Biggie 56 from Thanks Exceptional products from Listerine. Never had a bad experience with any of their products. Total care, cool mint, original all have a great taste, while effectively reducing bad breathe, and helping in the prevention of gingivitis. I love these products, cool mint is my favorite. Keep doing what you are doing. Highly recommend these products to anyone.

  Rated 5 out of 5 by Bob from The best mouthwash I have used many types of mouthwash. The type with alcohol is very irritating to my mouth, and really didn’t help very much with keeping my mouth clean. My Dentist recommended Listerine Zero Alcohol mouthwash. Wow, this mouthwash is terrific, NO alcohol burn and it keeps my mouth very clean. Now I have to use this mouthwash, because if I don’t, my mouth feels very grimy, so I floss, brush, and rinse with Listerine Zero Alcohol mouthwash and I am ready to go.

  Rated 1 out of 5 by Superbier from Horrible Taste and Not Nearly as Effective as Ultraclean Arctic Zero I love Listerine Zero mouthwash products, particularly Ultraclean Arctic Zero and Total Care Fresh Mint Zero. Those are my pre-brush and post-brush daily mouthwashes. They make a huge difference in my breath and overall mouth health. I decided to try this Cool Mint Zero, thinking it would be similarly good..........boy was I wrong. This stuff tastes horrible (like chemicals), and it does not leave my mouth feeling fresh and clean. Nor does it maintain the freshness in my mouth for 24 hours like the other two products do. If you are looking for a great pre-brush mouthwash, try Ultraclean Arctic Zero. If you are looking for a great post-brush mouthwash, try Total Care Fresh Mint Zero. Skip this one, you'll thank me.

  Rated 1 out of 5 by Mary from BOTTLE DIFFICULT TO OPEN Like the mouthwash, but as a senior find it difficult to open the bottle - I think Listerine forgot that seniors cannot open things that require any force on some stupid button to open

  Rated 1 out of 5 by joslynj from Mouth nightmare I use Listerine mouthwash frequently and bought the "zero alcohol" bottle a few months ago thinking it would be healthier. However, since I've started using it the skin on the inside of my cheeks and gums has been peeling off in sheets. It's honestly disgusting and needless to say, incredibly disappointing given that ignoring this HUGE flaw it is an otherwise decent mouthwash. I have stopped using it entirely and will not be buying zero alcohol listerine products in the future.

  Rated 1 out of 5 by BT from White film in mouth - gross! For some reason, the eye-watering burn from the "blue" Listerine doesn't seem so bad in light of the bland, mouth filmy mess that is the "green" zero alcohol. I miss the days when the "blue burn" meant that the germs in my mouth were screaming in terror! I'm going back to that because of the white nasty film that forms in my mouth after rinsing with zero alcohol. It's gross, completely and utterly gross. I have no idea why Listerine felt this would go over well. I will never, ever buy zero alcohol again, and have a mind to write Listerine and demand a refund. Back to blue!

  Rated 2 out of 5 by Bullfrog from This is like a watered down mouth wash My wife was suppose to get me regular Listerine Cool Mint. Came home with new non alcohol Cool Mint with a milder taste. Bad mistake. Has a watered down mint taste. Will not be buying any more of this.

  Rated 1 out of 5 by Nodramallama from Ever peel your gums before? The flavor is nice, the effectiveness is disappointing and the after effects are appalling. I couldn't figure it out at first but then I noticed EVERY time I used the mouthwash there was this nasty sticky, stringy stuff in my mouth. You know when you get sun burnt and peel skin? It's JUST like that, but from the lining of your mouth and gums. I was horrified and the thought of having to peel skin or a gulm or whatever almost made me throw up. I had to get it all out. I've trusted listerine my whole life as one of those brands that are worth the money you pay for quality. O looked online and have found SO MANY reviews with people who have had the same exact problem. My trust is wavering, why would you sell this if it's a know problem?

  Rated 2 out of 5 by minorkey from Leaves Film in Mouth I've been using this product for a few weeks and I started noticing a film over my teeth and among the gums that I can literally pull out of my mouth. I see after doing some searching that this might be sloughing. That's worrying since I don't want the skin in my mouth to burn off using this product. I switched from the alcohol version of this mouthwash for a milder version, but this may be turning out to be a bad switch.

  Rated 4 out of 5 by Sue98 from Mostly okay but sloughing. I've seen other reviews that mention the same side effect: sloughing of the mucosa inside the mouth. This is the only side effect I was not expecting and I wonder if the essential oils may cause this in certain individuals. I didn't know there even were essential oils until I found the review page. Oops. Please make sure these "new" ingredients are more prominently featured for new user awareness!!! On a positive note, my gums feel better and my teeth are literally squeaky clean now. I may switch between this and another mouthwash to avoid possible long term effects of the sloughing though.

  Rated 2 out of 5 by Bard from Causing Severe Sloughing. I've been using Cool-Mint Listerine with Alcohol for many years now with good results. But I was worried about the Alcohol long term effects and I get a very dry mouth from it. So I switch to the Listerine Cool-Mint Alcohol version and I thought it was great.... at first that is. The first couple days of using the product I got some sloughing. I figured it was my gums getting adjusted to the new mouth wash. But after two weeks of using this product, I get severe sloughing everyday. My gums are now extra sensitive and irritated. This Alcohol free version is too potent with the chemicals that are in it. I'm going to stop using Listerine and any store bought mouth wash that has any chemicals in. From now on it's all natural or nothing at all.

  Rated 3 out of 5 by FreshBreathGrandma from Cap is NOT for arthritic hands! I've been using Listerene mouthwashes for over 20 years. I recently switched to the zero alcohol because the other was too strong for me. I know the caps are the same, but they have become increasingly harder to use as the arthritis in my hands gets worse. Tonight, I have given up and thrown my new bottle in the garbage because I CANNOT OPEN IT! I don't have the strength any longer. WHY don't you make the caps more user friendly?

  Rated 2 out of 5 by ADDS from Oral Mucosa Sloughing I have been using the standard Listerine Antiseptic formula for years personally and professionally with no issue, and this formula contains alcohol. I tried the Listerine alcohol free rinse the other day and experienced generalized oral mucosa sloughing off. Comparing to the ingredients of Listerine Antitiseptic, the alcohol free version has sodium lauryl sulfate, propylene glycol, and the 4 undisclosed essential oils. I believe one or some of these ingredients in the alcohol free rinse may be the cause of sloughing.

  Rated 3 out of 5 by NB from Good but questionable marketing Why are the four oils not listed as *active* ingredients in this version of the product? I thought it was supposed to be just as effective as the original alcohol-based formula by virtue of having the same main ingredients? A bit suspicious!

  Rated 1 out of 5 by Maryam from Harsh ingredients causing mouth lining bleed I bought a case of this mouth wash product, about 6 in the case, and I started using it. But after a week I started noticing the lining of my cheeks and lower lips began to slough and fall. The film produced is white and is made of my lip mucus membrane. What is this made of? Tonight after I brushed my teeth and used Listerine Zero my lip was bleeding. I am definitely filing a complaint and calling the bureau of consumer affairs. This product is dangerous.

  Rated 1 out of 5 by Tyler64 from Mouth peeling I bought this yesterday from our local grocery store. I used it last night and and felt a little burning and left what felt like a film inside my mouth. I used it this morning and again the same thing only this time my skin and gums started peeling. I looked up the reviews on this particular mouthwash and this seems to be a trend. This needs to get taken care of. I had to call my wife to tell her to not use it.

  Rated 1 out of 5 by Erin13 from Mouth is peeling Everything I use it my mouth start's peeling a few hours later, not just a little either. I've tried it a few times just to be sure it was the mouth wash and not anything else and even tried rinsing my mouth afterwards to see if I'd help. Unfortunately it did not.

  Rated 1 out of 5 by Deano59 from Bad Taste In My Mouth Listerine Zero is promoted as a more gentle product than the original. But, when I tried this product, it burned much worse than the Listerine of old. I've never had such a bad experience with a Listerine product. Still unable to eat otherwise enjoyable foods since using this supposedly gentler version. I will likely toss this since whatever they replace the alcohol with is much much worse.

  Rated 1 out of 5 by James from Listerine Zero I used this product several times always in the morning before work. By the time I get to work my month inside skin would be peeling. shreds of skin keeps coming off all day and a real chemical taste all day makes everything taste weird. I thought the sloughing was from my water pick, I consulted the dentist she said change the mouth wash. Its taking me some time to figure this out and its only by reading other peoples experience with this product I can now say for sure its the Listerine. I'm going to call their products customer care tomorrow.
