Effectiveness

Pros:

  • "This mouthwash really performs in removing soreness from oral abrasions, sores, blisters, and wounds."
  • "After 2 uses, I noticed a lessening in my pain level. By day 4, the pain was gone."
  • "I have constant ulcers and this product heals them faster than anything else I’ve ever used."
  • "This isn't going to make your canker sores / mouth ulcers go away immediately but it helps EXPONENTIALLY with discomfort & pain."
  • "It helps heal them rapidly, and cleans the whole mouth."
  • "I'm giving this 5 stars because it does exactly what it says it will do: it cleanses and promotes healing of minor oral wounds."
  • "This stuff helped my mouth heal completely after 3 uses."

Cons:

  • "I used it for 2 days and it burned my gums! My gums are peeling and it’s awful."
  • "This did not help the irritation I had in my mouth at all. If anything it may have made it worse."
  • "I thought this would help with my sore spots from my dentures but it doesn’t."
  • "Tried this stuff, and initially, it did help. But never cleared it up."
  • "I thought this will help with mouth sores... Very unsafe, don't buy!"
  • "I’ve used Oral rinse prescribed by my dentist, OralX numbing solution, Salt and Water, and even Peroxyl. It wasn’t effective."
  • "The sore that was developing in my mouth continued to get worse and I didn’t notice any benefits from rinsing with this mouthwash."

Value

Pros:

  • "For home patients who require oral care, this is basically the same active ingredient (hydrogen peroxide, 1.5%) hospitals use but at about 1/8 the price of hospital stuff made by Stryker."
  • "I have purchased Peroxyl several times but wanted a larger size this time."
  • "Buy the larger size, It is half the price."
  • "And the value is great."
  • "Great bargain with good quality!"
  • "Always heals. Always works."
  • "I love the addition of the hydrogen peroxide... Great stuff, wish I had found it long ago. I can only seem to find it online!"

Cons:

  • "Total waste of money."
  • "Overpriced rinse."
  • "Very high priced for what you get overall."
  • "However, I did NOT read the ounces before purchasing and paid way too much for this small bottle."
  • "It seemed quite expensive given that it's just a little peroxide added to the mouthwash."
  • "Why is this so expensive? 8USD, outrageous!"
  • "Thought I was getting the large size, but this is very small. Value for money not good, unless you want a very small bottle."

Taste and Sensation

Pros:

  • "No candy or heavy medicinal taste like some of the other offerings."
  • "It's very mild so you won't get those 'spicy tastes' as in other products."
  • "The flavor is also good."
  • "I like that it does not have a harsh medicinal taste and really freshens breath as well as rinsing your mouth with antibacterial properties."
  • "The flavor is great, very refreshing, does not burn the inside of my mouth like others."
  • "Tastes ok, actually no taste at all."
  • "The flavor was good."

Cons:

  • "because of the foaming of the hydrogen peroxide you can’t rinse too far back into your throat without damn near puking ts up 😭."
  • "Buyer beware. It is wintergreen, NOT mint. Tastes like Pepto Bismol. YUCK!!"
  • "It tasted horrible!"
  • "I really don't like the taste of it."
  • "The flavor is poor and truly very little freshness."
  • "I'm not a fan of mint... This was the STRONGEST most painful I've ever used."
  • "I really don’t care for the flavor, but that’s not new. I don’t like the taste of most mouthwash."
