problem solved
By beth | July 1, 2008
Well, I am happy (and a bit disturbed) to report that ’twas the Crest Pro-Health causing my lack of taste sensation. I stopped using it thanks to a tip from J.Beau (thanks, J.Beau!), and miraculously, within hours, it was like I had a new tongue! I went out to Chipotle on Friday night, and I kid you not, that was the most delicious burrito I have ever tasted. It was a dining experience rivaled only by the first taste of Bojangles upon my return from Honduras in 2002. Or maybe the first taste of Bojangles on Christmas break, 2003, when I came home from New York after nearly a 4-month fast from the southern fried crack.
Anyhoe, delicious. So Crest Pro-Health…stay away from it. It is the devil. And apparently it turns some people’s teeth brown. Thank goodness that didn’t happen to me, but I have had a sore spot on my tongue that is just now healing. I don’t know if it’s related, but ouchy. It hurts.
And now I feel sore in my throat, which I’m sure is not related, but which I shall blame on the mouthwash anyway. Evil, evil mouthwash.

Ohhh…would this be the mouthwash or the toothpaste??

I don’t know anything about the toothpaste as I use colgate, so it might be safe. But I stress might.

I think I had problems with that mouthwash too. You should definitely write a strongly worded letter to Crest.
