Hate to break it to you buddy but Scope has NEVER had alcohol in it.

About 10 years ago I asked my dentist what kind of mouthwash to use and she said to use something alcohol based like Listerine.

That is why Scope doesn't hurt when you use it. It pretty much only freshens breath and doesn't kill bacteria and help your teeth.

Funny, fake story though.

Funny the different thoughts about these things. My dentist has told me all my life never, ever to use anything with alcohol in it (and neither scope, as it does nothing). I use the oral-b with fluoride in it on his recommendation.

I think I'd be a whiskey sour without the cherry garnish.

That is because some people disagree on the use of alcohol based products.

If you use Listerine too often it can promote mouth cancer so it could potentially be dangerous.

You can buy alcohol free products that claim to be as effective as Listerine but I don't use them so I can't say if they actually work.

Gin and Tonic. A little bitter at first and an acquired taste, but lifelong friends after you get to like it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Listerine

There has been concern that the use of alcohol-containing mouthwash such as Listerine may increase the risk of developing oral cancer[who?].

Both the American Dental Association (ADA) and the United States National Cancer Institute (NCI) agree that the alcohol contained in antiseptic mouthwash is safe and not a factor in oral cancers. Studies conducted in 1985,[11] 1995,[12] and 2003[13] summarize that alcohol-containing mouth rinses are not associated with oral cancer. However, an extensive study published December 2008 in the Australian Dental Journal concluded that:

“There is now sufficient evidence to accept the proposition that developing oral cancer is increased or contributed to by the use of alcohol-containing mouthwashes. Whilst many of these products may have been shown to be effective in penetrating oral microbial biofilms in vitro and reducing oral bacterial load, it would be wise to restrict their use to short-term therapeutic situations if needed. Perhaps the use of mouthwashes that do not contain alcohol may be equally effective. Further, mouthrinses should be prescribed by dentists, like any other medication. There may well be a reason for the use of alcohol-containing mouthrinses, but only for a particular situation and for a limited and controlled period of time. As such, patients should be provided with written instructions for mouthwash use, and mouthwash use should be restricted to adults for short durations and specific, clearly defined reasons. It is the opinion of the authors that, in light of the evidence currently available of the association of alcohol-containing mouthwashes with the development of oral cancer, it would be inadvisable for oral healthcare professionals to recommend the long-term use of alcohol-containing mouthwashes.[14]

If I was beer, I would be Budweiser. If I was a drink, I would be a Jaggar Bomb.

Handsome Successful Ale

Or perhaps Imaliar Beer

I'd be a Floating Mandela. I don't know what that is, but that's what I'd like to be called if I were a drink.
