Greater Plaque and Gingivits Reduction
Adding LISTERINE® Antiseptic to your patient’s routine can provide a significant, incremental benefit against plaque.

A recent study showed that even for those who brush and floss, the addition of LISTERINE® Antiseptic provides 52% greater plaque reduction and 21% greater reduction in gingivitis versus brushing and flossing alone. Compared to brushing alone, the addition of LISTERINE® Antiseptic provided 56% greater plaque reduction and 29.9% greater gingivitis reduction.1
