ARM & HAMMER Advance White Toothpaste with Baking Soda, Fresh Mint 6 oz (Pack of 2)

I started using this toothpaste just 4 months ago. In the past I had not taken good care of my teeth and was looking at major work. Just this past week I had my teeth cleaned and they told me that my problems were MUCH better. The Dentist was shocked at the improvement that happened and I am no long looking at surgery. She asked what had changed and all I could think of was the toothpaste change. So yes, buy it even if you have great teeth, will only help keep them that way!

After experiencing abnormal issues with my mouth and lips for a couple of weeks now, I finally thought to look into the possibility that it might be caused by my toothpaste, Arm and Hammer Advance White. I wasn't expecting to find any links because I've used Arm and Hammer toothpastes for years without any problems. After reading multiple reviews reporting the exact same issues as I was experiencing, I was actually relieved. I had been very concerned up until now that something was seriously wrong with me! My symptoms were dry, cracked and peeling lips, sores in the corner of my mouth, dry mouth and an overall strange feeling inside my mouth after brushing. I am sad to say that I'm discontinuing using this product immediately.

I have used this toothpaste for many years and never had any issues, but when purchased it last month, I noticed that my tongue was swollen and cracked, my lips were peeling, and the sides of my mouth were cracked little did I think that it was the toothpaste. When another family member mentioned that they experiencing the same symptoms that is when I decided to look and see if others were reporting the same problem. As soon as I stopped using the toothpaste my issues went away.

This toothpaste has been giving me mouth burns/a horrible rash on and off for 6 months. When I finally figured out what was causing the rash and burning on my mouth, I stopped using this product and the rash has not come back. This rash shows up days later and lingers for days after you stop using the toothpaste. It is very painful. Highly recommend NOT using this product. Awful awful awful.

I unfortunately had an allergic reaction, can barely open mouth for a week now because of how badly my lips reacted to this product. I noticed it would sting my lips everytime I brushed but I loved how my teeth felt. Then I woke up with inflamed lips that soon turned to sore corners of my mouth which I'm scared will scar. if possible would like a refund

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] WARNING! This has caused SEVERE IRRITATION to my lips and tongue. My lips are very SWOLLEN (exactly like a Botox reaction looks), CHAPPED around the edges, canker SORES in the corners, and NUMB LIPS. My tongue and the interior of my lips are very DRY and numb. I noticed this REACTION after using a pea-sized amount on my toothbrush every couple of days, alternating with my regular, plain old Crest toothpaste. I need to call my dentist so he is aware of this issue, because it was recommended by him and a sample was given to me. This looks and feels like a bee sting or Botox gone wrong! It's painful, uncomfortable, and something is VERY DANGEROUS WITH THIS PRODUCT, DO NOT USE!

I'm so relieved to see so many other people had a negative experience with this toothpaste. I got the worst rash around my lips, sores at the corners of my mouth, and numbness inside my mouth (almost like I burned my tongue on a hot drink). I switched toothpastes and the rash went away. Last night I used the toothpaste again just to see what would happen and I woke up with a painful rash around my mouth again! This needs to be pulled from shelves because there's clearly something wrong with this product.

My lips are severely dry and my tongue developed fissures. The corners of my mouth are so dry and cracked, it hurts to open. I thought I had an allergic reaction to something I had eaten and even thought my friend's dog gave me some bacterial infection. Even went to the doctor's to get it checked out. I can't believe toothpaste could cause such adverse reactions.

Last weekend on May 9th I used my husband's arm and hammer toothpaste and used it again May 10 along with chap stick. I noticed the morning of May 10th, when I woke up my lips were a little red and they were swollen. I thought it was one of my chapsticks low and behold I used my husband's arm and hammer toothpaste again this morning and my lips were getting the same allergic reaction they got last weekend. I'm glad I figured it out and now I know not to use this toothpaste again.

Ive used arm & hammer for at least a year or two but the last tube I used was the advanced white and I started noticing my lips becoming very dry and chapped. A few days later I developed sores on my tongue and the corners of my mouth had split and were burning. I had a red itchy painful rash around my lips that looked like I had been licking my lips and I could not figure out what was causing it. I tried so many things and when I read that it could be the toothpaste I saw several other eerily similar reviews and immediately stopped the toothpaste. Im day 3 into stopping this product and my mouth is slowly healing. Im sure it isnt happening to everyone but it appears to be kinda common based on reviews so beware! This is the first time ive ever had this happen from toothpaste and I wouldnt wish it on my worst enemy!
