Crest Pro Health Mouthwash causing teeth to turn brown!

[tobiwobi]

If you google this, a whole bunch of stuff comes up. Apparently Crest Pro Health mouthwash has been causing teeth to go brown for quite some time, and there's going to be a class action lawsuit, or there was one all the way back in 2009.

You cannot get the brown stains (mostly between teeth) off yourself, you must get your dentist to remove them via expensive dental treatments.

It appears that not just the crest pro health, but all mouthwash products that have no alcohol are causing teeth to turn brown. Companies developed alcohol-free mouthwashes to appeal to pregnant women, the elderly, and diabetics, who should not use alcohol-based products.

Did you know this? If I knew this, I would have stayed away from the Listerine Zero deals. It may be free, but if it can cause ugly brown stains, then forget it.

Colgate total also contains cetylpyridinium chloride, in fact, even most kid's rinses have it. To see a list of products that contain it, go here:
