This is the feedback thread for the Mumsnet users who tested Listerine® Nightly Reset mouthwash. This test was open to all UK MNers.

Here is some more information about the Listerine® Nightly Reset mouthwash: “In a modern age of increasingly busy lifestyles and diary-filled days it’s easy to neglect things like oral health. Whether it’s healthy foods or sweet treats that you enjoy the most as snacks, tucking into acidic or sugary food and drink weakens your teeth enamel. While brushing does help to take care of your oral health, brushing just your teeth only targets 25% of your mouth*, Listerine® mouthwash targets virtually 100%.”

Testers please answer the following questions:

  • What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?
  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?
  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?
  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?
  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?

Testers please answer the following questions:

  • What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?


Poor.

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?


Didn't like anything. Taste is bizarre and too strong. Hate that its advertised as suitable for after brushing. It isn't. (Qualified dental professional here). No mouthwash is. No mouthwash fluoride level compares to brushing with toothpaste and leaving it on. Effectively mouthwash washes away the important fluoride residue before it has a chance to 'sink in'. Mouthwash is fine to use but before brushing or at a separate time (after lunch?)

  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?


Have tried various listerine washes. This is by far the worst tasting.

  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?


No

  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?


No!
YesQueen · 08/07/2019 16:44
  • What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset? Ok


  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ? Easy to use. Disliked it was promoted to use after brushing as my dentist likes me to not rinse at all


  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?

Less burning!!

  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store? Possibly - would be more likely if toothpaste/mouthwash realised we don't all like mint! I would be all over a fruit or herbal one


  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family? If we were discussing teeth then yes if they wanted a new mouthwash

  • What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset? Very satisfied.
  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ? I liked the taste, I normally find I have to spit out mouthwash, as its too strong, but this was just right.

I have always been told not to mouth wash after brushing, so not sure if this is an accurate instruction.
  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare? Nicer flavour, and not as overpowering.
  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store? Yes
  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family? Yes
Freshstart40 · 08/07/2019 17:01

I was really excited to trial this product as I use a mouthwash every night after brushing (supermarket own brand). I have used the regular Listerine in the past but went to own brand due to cost. I'm in my early 40's and since getting older have noticed my teeth are more sensitive. I can see the little spots where my tooth enamel has gone on my front teeth especially. I was sceptical/ hopeful in equal measure this product could be my rescue.
The instructions say to use morning and night, which I did. The first time I used it my tongue went tingly! Which I assume is the extra fluoride in it. I REALLY LIKE THE PRODUCT AND WILL BUY IT. That's the bottom line in case I'm waffling. I found the freshness in my mouth lasted a good few hours. An added bonus was it put me off snacking! !
As a mouthwash I love it but I'm not sure it can reset enamel loss. I'm not sure anything can do that? But if you're looking for a brilliant mouthwash with a lovely taste. This is for you.

fishnships · 08/07/2019 17:14

Overall Satisfaction: Very Satisfied.
The thing I liked most was the effect it had on my teeth. Unlike any other mouthwash I have tried, this one really seemed to make the enamel feel stronger.
I disliked the fact that it contains an artificial sweetener (albeit sucralose). I am trying not to use any artificial sweetener and would much prefer it to contain stevia.
I have not used Listerine mouthwash in the past.
Based on this trial I would purchase it in store. I want to use it every day, but feel that it would work out too expensive to do this. I will be persuaded to buy this if it is on offer, or priced reasonably.
Yes, I would recommend it to friends and family, I have been impressed by how effective it is.

shutzpa · 08/07/2019 18:44

What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?
Quit satisfied 👍🏻

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?

I disliked the fact that it recommends to be used after brushing, my dentist always tells me not to rinse/use mouthwash after brushing!
  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?

No burn 👍🏻😂
  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?

Probably, would be better with a more herbal flavour rather than mint.
  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?

Probably 👍🏻
Lizwa · 08/07/2019 18:48

What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?
Excellent

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?


It did not have the tingly sensation of the regular Listerine, ir felt a lot more gentle. Mouth was left feeling refreshed and more importantly cleaned. Major thing to note was I had a hygiene appointment today and my gum health has never been so good and to keep up the regime.. This was a welcome piece of news as last year I had vast periodontal surgery.


  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare

I Have tried numerous listerine washes and this is quite different in the taste it is a lot more subtle.

  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?

Yes

  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family

Yes

  • What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?


Very satisfied.

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?


It must be alcohol-free as it was gentle and didn't dry me out, and yet my teeth and mouth did feel really clean and fresh after use. The taste was a gentle mint, and it didn't leave the sort of sting some other mouth washes can leave.

  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?


I think it's better, because it's gentler. Though the difference between this one and their other alcohol-free one probably isn't huge.

  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?


Yes.

  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?


Yes, but not sure I'd say go buy this rather than any other Listerine product.
PennyStocks · 08/07/2019 18:59

I'm really sorry, I undertook to give the product a fair trial but I just couldn't get past the safety message on the label on the back, which says: Do not swallow. If swallowed, get medical help.

Call me old fashioned, but it just didn't seem like a smart thing to be putting in my mouth.

DontFundHate · 08/07/2019 19:17
  • What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?


Ok. I found it a bit boring to use. I guess I'm not concerned about cavities so I wasn't really motivated to keep using it.

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?


Taste was ok. I prefer the really strong minty Listerine mouthwash but this wasn't as strong tasting. This one was described as mild mint but it was stronger than that, I'd be annoyed at how strong it tasted if I had bought one for the mild taste.

Dislike the name. I don't get why it's called a nightly reset if it's supposed to be used at morning too, it doesn't make sense.

Liked the colour.

Dislike vague recycling symbol. Should have clearer recycling instructions, and didn't like the black plastic lid.

Dislike being told to use 15ml but no way to measure that. I just guessed and poured some in the lid. Please make one with a line in the lid to measure!! (I guess it's not strictly hygenic?!)

  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?


Not as good. Prefer the stronger mintier taste of the others, prefer one which helps to whiten the teeth.

  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?


No

  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?


Yes if they were concerned about cavities. No if not
DontFundHate · 08/07/2019 19:19

@mnhq are we supposed to leave a review on the website too? How will they know we are the same poster from here? Or does that not matter?! Thanks

doctorboo · 08/07/2019 19:26
  • What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset? Very high
  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ? I liked how mild it was and how my mouth felt cleaner in the mornings, compared to how it felt using a mouthwash from Aldi.
  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare? An improvement, less harsh and seemingly laster longing.
  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store? Yes definitely.
  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family? I already have!
armoholt · 08/07/2019 19:32
  • What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?


My overall satisfaction was good. The smell and taste reminds me of the dentist.

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?


I liked that it was good for me and the older children. There was no burning sensation after use which encouraged the older ones to use it.

  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?


The minty Listerine left a burning sensation after use and put me off using it.

  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?


I would purchase again but when it is on offer I think it’s quite expensive and you can buy other brands at a cheaper cost.

  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?


I would recommend to others especially if they have cavities.
chibsortig · 08/07/2019 19:41

What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?
Good.

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?

The flavour wasnt too strong so didnt burn like other but left my mouth feeling fresh, long lasting freshness too.

  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?

I dont really use them.

  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?

Yes if the price was right.

  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?

Most definitely
IToldYouIWasFreaky · 08/07/2019 20:00

What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?

Very satisifed

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?


The long lasting freshness. Like a previous poster, I even found that it put me off snacking as my mouth still felt minty mid-morning, which was an unexpected bonus!

  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?


Very favourably. I've previously avoided anything labelled "mild" as I thought it wouldn't be fresh enough. I like a mouthwash with a proper burning sensation for a really clean feeling! However, I really was surprised that even though this was mild and didn't burn during use, it really did leave my mouth feeling fresh and clean.

  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?


Yes, definitely

  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?


Yes
Lindz0201 · 08/07/2019 20:15

What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?

i was extremely satisfied with Listerine® Nightly reset

- What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?

I liked the clean feeling in my mouth for hours after I used it.

I didn't like the fact that it didn't state alcohol free on the bottle, when it actually is. if I was to see the product in the shop and saw it, I wouldn't have bought it as I would have been unsure whether it contains some or not.

i did not use any Listerine® mouthwashes previously

- Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?

What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?
Really satisfied

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?

My mouth felt so clean throughout the day and my teeth felt polished although I'm not sure about their advice as I was always led to believe you don't rinse your mouth after brushing so I'll have to read up some more about that
  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?

This one isn't strong at all, the others I've tried in the past have burnt my mouth
  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?

Probably not as I'm on quite a tight budget but I may get some if it was on offer
  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?

Yes if it came up in conversation
MrsFrTedCrilly · 09/07/2019 00:22
  • What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?

I liked the taste, I also liked the fact that it didn’t have that horrible alcohol burn sensation that I’ve had with previous mouthwashes.

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?

Like the taste and fresh lasting sensation the most.
Dislike the fact that it seems to contradict most dental health professionals by advising to rinse after brushing. Is the fluoride content really that effective in a 60 second slosh?

  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?

Definitely much better, tastes less strong and less drying. I felt that my teeth have been less sensitive using this.

  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?

I think that I would although need to research re fluoride and have a chat with my dentist (and dentist friends)

  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?

Yes from a taste point of view and if he science behind it stacks up then would heartily recommend.

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to try this.
carolineandbaby · 09/07/2019 01:43
  • What was your overall satisfaction with Listerine® Nightly Reset?

Really positive I really believe it made a difference to the cleanliness of my teeth

  • What did you like or dislike most about Listerine® Nightly Reset ?

I really liked the milder mint flavour before bed and how clean my teeth felt
In the morning especially the first morning after trying it it felt like my teeth had been self Cleaning over night.

  • If you’ve used Listerine® mouthwashes in the past, how does Listerine® Nightly Reset compare?

Really Powerful night time cleaning with a really great mild flavour however you would probs my want one of the other listerine mouthwashes for the morning / daytime that have a stronger mint flavour.

  • Now you’ve tried Listerine® Nightly Reset, would you purchase it in store?

Definitely. It has changed my oral routine and my eldest child now uses mouthwash because she can cope with this milder mint flavour.

  • Would you recommend Listerine® Nightly Reset to friends or family?

Yes I already have. It’s brilliant. I have been recommending to anyone I can bring it up in conversation with
