What is the best type of mouthwash to use when you have a tongue piercing?

Answer 1

Do NOT use mouthwash!!!! If you use it straight as much as you have to use it your tongue will turn colors and your breath will be so bad that your momma wont want to be near you....

Why, ok it is like this, your digestion begins in your mouth...You have bacteria in your mouth that start the digestive process, and what does mouthwash do???? It kills bacteria....You have to use it every time you put anything in your mouth, be it food, drink , a hair, you bite on the end of a pencil..etc..etc.....for the first two weeks, then 4 times a day for the next two weeks.....That is toooooooo much mouthwash...Back in the day we told people to cut their mouthwash with 50% water and 50% mouthwash....But even that was too much....

Today we tell folks to use seasalt, taking 1/4 tsp. of seasalts and add that to eight [8] ozs. of warm water.....Mix it real good and then put it in a sports bottle and carry it with you....Rinse every time you put anything in your mouth for two weeks and for the next two weeks use it 4 times a day....Hope this helps....

Also, I just added this because they didnt give me credit for it at the bottom, good luck with your new piercing.........

I would have to say yea you can. When i first got my tongue pierced it was ok to do it because the piercer told me to, and nothing bad has happened to me. Also there is one suggestion for the mouthwash. Just do all of your eating or drinking first until u know that you wont need to eat or drink until later on then u use the mouth wash. I liked the listerine better than any other brand.

Hope this was helpful
