Crest Toothpaste

Cindy of Laurel, MD February 24, 2010

I purchased Crest Pro Health toothpaste on Feb 1st, 2010; and after using it once I realized inside of my mouth was peeling. I brushed right after dinner and the peeling went on until I went to bed which was about 4 hours later. The symptoms lasted till the following morning as things didn't taste right then didn't feel normal for several days. Looking at the outer box in which the toothpaste came I notice strange abnormalities in print job as if fraudulent. Layers of colors around list of benefits for using this product are not even as well as many other print mistakes. Could this be Chinese made toxic toothpaste? What concerns me also is that I purchased this at nearby Walmart! It does say on the box that Proctor & Gamble is the distributor of this item and no where it states where the country of origin is. Both manufacturer and retailer should look into this right away before it gets worse.

i began using crest pro-health toothpaste about a week ago. i started to notice a sore on the side of my mouth on the second day of use and it continued to get worse throughout me using the toothpaste. on the third day of use my tongue felt like it was burning and my taste buds were inflamed. i also developed a white coating on the back of my tongue. on the fourth day of use I had constant drainage and mucus everywhere and my previous problems had gotten worse. the next day, i brushed my teeth and my tongue to burn very badly, it felt like it was on fire. It then dawned on me that it was the toothpaste causing this. I immediately stopped using the toothpaste and two days later my mouth was fine.

I purchased a travel size tube of Crest Pro-Health toothpaste and used it after lunch for three consecutive days. After the first day I noticed a blister on the back edge of my tongue. The second day I began to get a numb tongue in addition to the painful blister. On the third day after using, my taste buds seemed to have been damaged. Nothing tasted right. I called my dentist to inquire whether the toothpaste might be a problem and dentist advised me to stop using. It has been four days since I last used the Crest and I am still experiencing a numb tongue, no taste, etc.

My wife and I began using Crest Pro Health toothpaste, and within 24 hours of using the toothpaste, both of us were experiencing sores on our tongues. The appearance of the sores was similar to pimples on the skin. We immediately stopped using the toothpaste. However, it took several days for the sores to subside. Both my wife and I have developed soar throats and sinus drainage. When we called the consumer relations number on the Crest container, we were told that no one else had complained of these problems.

Crest Pro-Health Night Toothpaste We used this product for several weeks and were very satisfied with it. Then our bathroom sink got clogged. First time in 20 yrs. We unsuccessfully attempted to unclog it. The plumber cost us 110

It took several more weeks of using Crest Pro-Health Night Toothpaste to figure out it was the culprit. We tried it in another bathroom and after several wks we had the same problem. We stopped using it. No more clogged sinks.

I have been using Crest ProHealth toothpaste for over a year. For the past 8 months I have had problems which I attributed to sinus. However after being treated for a long time for sinus irritation without any success I tried to find out for myself what my problem was. I noticed that I only had problems when I went to bed at night after I brushed my teeth. At night I could feel something draining and tickling in my throat which caused me to cough. So I would get up and cough up what was in my throat. The result was long stringy pieces of phlegm. I went through practically a whole box of tissue each night before I could clear up the problem. So I stopped using Crest ProHealth toothpaste and what do you know, my problem has been resolved. I have searched the web for others who have had problems with Crest ProHealth and it is amazing with so many complaints out there that this toothpaste has not been recalled.

With all the filth and garbage that is on television,especialy during family viewing hours,Crest finds it approiate to spend their advertising dollars sponsering garbage programs such as the afore mentioned program "Operation Repo"whose dialog is comprised of one four letter word after another.Such lack of good taste on the part of Crest compels me to avoid all of their products until they upgrade their moral values.

After brushing my teeth with crest on Dec 13, at 8'oclock am After about 10min i noticed my right lower cheek on the side of my mouth began to swell i tried apying a cold compress and rinsing my mouth with cool water and that did not help. After five hours i called the cvs pharmacy and explained to the pharmacist about the brushing my teeth with the toothpaste he adviced me to take a Benedryl for the swelling and or Tylenol.After taking the Benedryl about three oclock pm the selling began to decrease slowly however its still apparent. This is ridicoulous......
