Sarakan Anti-Plaque Mouthwash (300 ml) | Formulated to Reduce Plaque and Tartar | Alcohol Free | Fluoride Free | Vegan (Pack of 1)

I'm copy-pasting my review from another listing of a single bottle of the exact same product:The flavour of this stuff takes some getting used to, as it's less "minty-fresh", and more "medicinal". That said, it's far from unpleasant. It's a curiously aromatic, slightly sweet flavour reminiscent of cloves. Importantly, it's not a strong taste at all. However, to me the important thing is whether it's effective at keeping my mouth healthy with a reduced list of synthetic ingredients. The taste is secondary.What I love about it, is it seems to have a breath-freshening/germ-killing and anti-plaque action without burning and stinging. Although it contains no fluoride, one of the herbal extracts ("Toothbrush Tree" or Salvadora) is reportedly beneficial to gum health and dental hygiene. I figure that as long as my toothpaste (usually Kingfisher but currently Tom's of Maine) contains some fluoride, this should be alright.I have noticed that this mouthwash sometimes forms "bits" that you can see in the sink when you spit it out. I have experimented and noticed that if I use it before brushing, there are more bits. After brushing, there are less. After brushing and flossing with a Waterpik, less still. From this, I can only conclude that it somehow loosens and coagulates with bacteria, tartar, and/or food-particles, allowing you to remove more than mere brushing and flossing alone. It therefore does indeed perform the modest list of claims it says on the bottle - and more.I want to use milder products with more natural ingredients in them. Many synthetics are of course perfectly safe - but we've evolved for a million years as a species in the presence of natural compounds that have undergone minimal processing. If we make use of these before needing to resort to synthetics, we're both minimising our environmental impact, and exposing ourselves to less things that we're simply not used to dealing with (on an evolutionary timescale). I could just be sensitive, but I came to this conclusion because I noticed that a lot of modern products either sting/burn, or dull my senses. Conventional toothpaste and mouthwash dry out my face around my mouth to the point that the skin is like bleeding sandpaper. I don't want to put something that has that effect inside my mouth!! In the search to find a gentle alternative that still keeps my gnashers strong and my breath like roses, I think I've found the best mouthwash in Sarakan.

First mouthwash that does leave a nasty aftertaste, get a pleasant taste, use it before brushing and it helps and keep my mouth fresh, definitely buying again

Only mouthwash i can use that doesn’t irritate my gums and teeth. Gentle and not a strong mint flavour. I’ve bought this pack multiple times now and it’s great.

This is a gentle herbal mouthwash with a soft mint flavour that doesn't do much to curb plaque and tartar, but is very nice for freshening your mouth in the morning or throughout the day.We attempted for a while to use it as our sole mouthwash due to my partner's preference for this over the TheraNeem mouthwash, but unfortunately felt that we were getting more plaque buildup with this alone. We like to use this one in the mornings and Organix South's TheraNeem at night (please see my review). This combo keeps our teeth and gums feeling great, with reduced sensitivity.It would be a nice natural alternative for someone who cannot stand the flavour of the TheraNeem but with the caveat that it may not be quite as effective on its own (when used in conjunction with regular flossing and fluoride-free toothpaste).

The only mouthwash worth using, mild but very effective, been using it for 20 years!

It is an effective mouthwash but without the alcohol. Safe for all the family. It’s pleasant to use on its own or with toothpaste. It’s all natural.

It seems that most manufacturers toothpastes and mouthwashes have an overpowering mint flavour. Finding a toothpaste and mouthwash I like has been difficult. I've even resorted to my grandson's Hello Kitty Firefly melon flavoured mouthwash at times much to his annoyance. When I first tried it to be honest I wasn't entirely sure about it. Maybe because I had been used to the sweet fruity kids mouthwashes. But what I liked about it is that there are NO artificial colours. NO alcohol. NO fluoride. UNSWEETENED and has natural flavours of peppermint, clove and geranium, none of which are overpowering. It also has Extract from the 'toothbrush tree' (Salvadora persica). The flavour is clean with a slight mint flavour and the toothpaste is the same. Having recently recovered from Covid brushing my teeth wasn't exactly a priority so my gums started bleeding. Within a few days of getting back to my dental routine the bleeding is now only very slight. I really recommend both the mouthwash and toothpaste if you are looking for something a little more natural with a flavour that isn't overpowering.

Ordered the 3 in a pack and distributed to my parents. We all LOVE it... And I'm about to order six more and stock up. This is a great cleaner - if you use it before brushing your teeth, you will notice all the plaque and nasties being spat out with the liquid (nice big green clumps which show you it's stripping your teeth of gross-ness!). It doesn't taste like popular brands, but I certainly wouldn't call it an "acquired taste" - We all find it really pleasant - it's made of plant and tastes of plant! Not of chemically induced peppermint, but that's fine by me!
