I used Listerine mouthwash for 20 years before I was diagnosed with OC (with alcohol).
My maxilofacial/oral surgeon recommends I use Colgate Savacol - ALCOHOL FREE - Antiseptic Mouth and Throat Wash following any surgeries and dental procedures I have. It is available at most pharmacies.
Hope your recovery goes well.
