Did you have a bad reaction to whitening mouth rinse?!


Question: Did you have a bad reaction to whitening mouth rinse!?
I used the new crest rinse in the white bottle last night!. I followed directions and used it before brushing my teeth and I used the recommended amount!.

Right after i used it I felt like I burned my tongue on really hot food and then this morning the skin on my gums and inner cheeks was peeling off!. I also have a bunch of little tiny blister-like things on my inner lip!. My tongue still feels like it's burning!.

Has this happened to you or anyone you know!? How long till the burning subsides!?

I called the doc and he said to use a saltwater rinse and orajel for the pain but it doesn't seem to be working!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Yeah, I had the same problem!. Any whitening toothpaste, gum, rinse, etc!.!.!.my gums get red and excoriated and my teeth hurt!. It is just too strong for my mouth!. I talked to my dentist about it and she recommended that I don't use products like that in the future!.

It takes a few days to heal, but it will heal!. The Orajel helped a little with the pain temporarily, but it only took about 4 days for me to heal!.

Now I use Aquafresh for sensitive teeth and have no problems with that!. Just stay away from whitening products from here on out!.

I feel your pain! Www@Answer-Health@Com

I used the generic "store" brand and my cheeks started peeling also!. I didn't experience any burning or blisters, maybe it's not as strong!. I just assumed it was the peroxide in it that caused the peeling!. It doesn't hurt, and I still use the product as my teeth are whiter!. I was thinking of trying the "name" brand but think I'll stick with the generic!. My mouth actually feels fresher since my cheeks peeled!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Make sure your doctor documents it and then call the company and report the reaction!. Then contact a consumer advocacy agency and report it!.
I've never bought the stuff because I didn't trust it!. When products cause injury ( even minor), it needs to be reported!.
Good luck!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
