Can others of us like myself who have experienced brown stains, seemingly related to the Crest product, join the class action suit?

Nope, that class action lawsuit is taking place in California from what I understand.

I used the Crest Pro Health Night Rinse Nov 07 and had a allergic type reaction swollen tongue, sore throat & voice change. Since I now have a partial paralysed vocal cord. I email P & G and they sent me a $2.00 refund(like they really care what they produce)

My brown stains and altered taste were temporary. I could taste only salty-- it seemed like my other taste buds were dead. I also had a very dry, sore mouth-- tongue felt swollen. After my dentist cleaned my teeth(with a special salt treatment) and I switched to Biotene toothpaste and mouthwash, the taste improved and my stains didn't come back. However, longterm effects remain. I still have a very dry mouth and considerable soreness. Are you sure I can't be included in a class action suit?

I used Crest Pro-Health 2 times and my tastebuds seem to have died. I was going to contact my doctor but decided to surf the web first. I was both relieved to know the cause and horrified to realize this product is still on the market. Shame on P&G! Come on America, its time we let corporate america know they have a moral obligation to remove this hazard from store shelves!

I started using Crest Pro-Health about a week and a half ago, first thought was how terrible it tasted and felt like there was a coating left on my tongue. Now for the past week I have been having a sore throat, mild but constant, not sick any other way. I thought maybe allergies??? Then I realized the timing of the new tooth paste, logged on to see if there was any one else out there with the same problem and wow what a shock to see all these complaints. Off to the store to get a different toothpaste as Pro-Health is in the trash.

For the last week or so - and increasing in intensity and severity -
my entire mouth feels like it was badly burnt by hot foods.

My tongue is swollen and fuzzy, taste buds irritated, gums are tender and feel abraded, cracked lip corners and blistered lips.

Assuming it was a new face wash with peppermint extract I stopped using that product.

No change.

Although I never expected toothpaste to be the cause as I've been using Crest products my entire life - I eventually suspected Crest Pro-Health Night Care and found many online complaints.

So jls - I "ditto" your complaint.

First - cease the Pro-Health

Second - Consult my dentist, periodontist and physician as I'm experiencing new digestive complaints as well.

Third - Write P&G

Fourth - continue to monitor this topic on this forum and volunteer to participate in any action that follows this outpouring of complaints!
