what mouth wash is better for tongue peircing bioteen or listerine?
I can only give the advice I have gained from my Tattooist and his wife who does the piercings...they still recommend Listerine. If you need to you can dilute it...or you could try the BIOTENE. I have looked on other piercing sites and have seen the same advice. I have used Listerine all my life and haven't had any adverse effects. It contains 8% alcohol.
Listerine® is the only mouthwash clinically proven to help prevent and reduce the gum disease gingivitis and kill germs between your teeth when brushing and flossing are not enough. It has earned the American Dental Association (ADA) Seal of Acceptance.
From a piercing site:
Brush with BIOTENE toothpaste twice daily and rinse your mouth out with BIOTENE mouthwash twice daily. We stronly advise you not to use Listerine or Scope as both contain alcohol and dry out oral tissue.

Biotene because it's less harsh and doesn't have the high alcohol content of Listerine. I promise.
My sister used Listerine so I'm assuming it's a good kind to use.
LISTERINE IS RECOMMENDED BY PIERCING PROFESSIONALS!!!
I'd recomend Listerine. That helps.
