Abstract :

The aim of this research was to know the sensitivity difference of sweet taste between user free alcohol mouthwash and mouthwash contains 26% alcohol. Mouthwash or mouth rinse is a product used for oral hygiene. Sometimes a significant amount of alcohol (up to 26% volume) is added, as a carrier for the flavor, to provide fresh, and to contribute an antibacterial effect. In addition, alcohol is a drying agent and also slows salivary flow, so that can change the taste sensitivity. Alcohol in mouthwash allows cancer-causing substances such as nicotine to penetrate the lining of the mouth more easily. And it can mean a toxic breakdown product of alcohol called acetaldehyde can accumulate in the oral cavity when swished around the mouth. This research using pre test and post test group design by giving the same action between three groups. First group is control group, the second is user non alcohol mouthwash, and the third is user mouthwash contains 26% alcohol. Data analyticusing Kruskal Wallis test. There are significantly different between three groups (p=0,036). The sweet taste sensitivity between control group, user mouthwash nonalcoholic and mouthwash alcohol 26% are different
