For Gingivitis "I was told to use this 4 times a day for 2-3 weeks after getting 2 wisdom teeth removed. My tongue feels like it’s been rubbed by sandpaper, my gums hurt now, and there is a strong, awful taste on the back of my tongue. I hate this stuff."

For Gingivitis "Terrible experience. I got mouth ulcers, even creating such an issue in my ears. I was placed on amoxicillin the first time I went, for they thought it was an earache. The next morning it hurt, so I looked in my mouth... it was a pus and white ulcer. I ended up at the emergency room because of the pain. I was given lidocaine. Then prescribed a lidocaine mouthwash with Benadryl and Mylanta base. This is crazy stuff. The next day, I found out it gets rust off of metal real good."

For Skin Disinfection, Preoperative "After 2 days, I developed several white canker sores on my bottom gum. Nowhere near where I had implant surgery-which was the top row. I stopped using it, and everything cleared up by the next day. Seems a lot of people are allergic to this."
