Show Notes
I remember the first mouthwash I tried, it was sweet and minty and set my mouth on fire. We then added water to lessen some of the burn but was told that if "it isn't burning, it isn't working." Katrina Sanders joins the show today to give us expert discussion on why alcohols were added in the first place, and what types of rinses we should be using today!
