Just curious if any of you use this for your CF kids? It is a non alcohol fluoride mouthwash. Our dentist suggested it for my CF daughter. I am always hesitant to use these types of mouthwashes because of contaminants or risks of getting bacteria cause it is not alcohol based. What do you all think?

Thanks!

I'm too apprehensive because of the number of times those types of mouthwashes have been recalled due to contamination with cepacia bacteria. Don't believe that brand ever had an issue, but I'm not willing to risk using any of the non-alcohol ones.

Thank you for the insight. I just bought it for my son, not even thinking about the issue, only keeping his little mouth from burning. I appreciate all of the advice from the parents who have dealt with the everyday issues before.
