Are you asking, "Which products should I buy?"
The answer is important because many products look similar on shelves but are not interchangeable within my Complete Mouth Care System. Different versions may contain different ingredients and formulations.
Many people assume that if a product says "CloSYS," "Listerine," or "ACT," any version will work. Unfortunately, that's not always the case.
The Complete Mouth Care System was developed using very specific products and formulations. Small differences between product versions can matter, which is why I recommends using the exact products listed below whenever possible.
