Popular brand optic white toothpaste

cat_mioux — Wed, 05 Feb 2014 01:05:57 GMT

on special now for $5.

I used it once and woke up with an incredibly painful throat. It hurt to swallow. And my recently root canaled tooth started hurting. It seems these symptoms after using this toothpaste are usual having reading hundreds of complaints online about this toothpaste.

It's been 24 hours and my throat feels fine and tooth has stopped hurting. I only used the toothpaste once thank goodness. Some people are suffering mouth blisters, swollen lips and ulcerated gums!

I'm throwing mine away.

You are not supposed to swallow it! It was probably coincidental Catmioux.

I have used it before without any problems.

I didn't eat it!

I'm just saying people need to be careful because it's not uncommon for people to have an allergic reaction to it.

Have you checked the active ingredients against another toothpaste? Mostly they are all pretty much the same no matter what miracle claims they may make.

I use it twice a day, no problems here.

Ms Mioux, I'm with you on this.

I find that all of the whitening / brightening type toothpastes cause me nothing but pain.

One brush with them and my gums, tongue mouth etc have a burning sensation that lasts for hours - I don't even bother trying them anymore.

Maybe we are reacting to the hydrogen peroxide that is found in whitening toothpastes.

I'll be staying away from anything 'whitening' from now on too!

I have found that none of the toothpastes that claim to whiten your teeth, dont.

None of them have ever worked on my teeth...

Liquid paper will make them white.

Just don't eat anything 😄

I've heard Ajax and a scourer works wonders.

Whitening toothpastes are a waste of money and have little to no effect.

If you want whiter teeth.......talk to your dentist.

Our family used to use salt on our toothbrushes. Have you noticed surfers' teeth?
