What is with the black specks which get stuck in my teeth? Have not had this in the product, the 4 other times I have purchased. What is different?

Can you take a picture of what you have and send it to my e-mail? rhalverson@greatrivermilling.com. We have always had black specs in our buckwheat flour because we grind the whole buckwheat and then sift off a portion of the outer layer. This leaves some black specs in the flour this is how you make dark buckwheat flour. If the sifter was not set properly it could be a mistake in milling. I would like to see it.

What such a weird mistake! What kind of company is this! Are you sure it's black seed inside? Because it could be Mustard seed or something else!! [http://www.amazon.com/Indus-Organic-Black-Mustard-Seeds/dp/B005U8NMFC/ref=pd_sim_gro_18]. I'd contact the company/Amazon & let them know to see what they have to say about it, or replace you those bottles. Truth to say; they have a good ORGANIC black seed, is the only 1 I'm using myself, it's good quality seed, unless one bottle was strongly moldy smelling, (I will continue buying from them & if the future purchases seem to be good I'll review my feedback to them). Black seed for me is my medicine to my autoimmune disease, but I was never able to get used to its strong bitter taste, I grind it in a special coffee burr machine & fill it out in my vcaps myself, Excellent.

I just did some checking on line when I read this. I read an article on abcactionnews.com that said hygienists said the microbeads are polyethylene and can trap bacteria and cause gum disease. P&G; (Crest) spokesperson said their products would be free of this by March 2016. Also not only is it bad for you, it is bad for the environment. I like this product, but I am not going to buy it until I know for sure it is free of these beads.

I only ever see black gunk in the 4 arc-like holes which I use a toothpick to dig it out easily. You take off the rubber mouthpiece, then you can see the 4 holes that the mold forms in.

It was a gift for a friend's son and I told them to do what I do with my thermos. Go to the store and purchase some inexpensive denture cleaning tablets. Throw a couple in the bottle over night filled with water, then wash with warm water and soap the next day. You could also use a drop of bleach in water. I keep a baby bottle/glass brush on hand if I have something like juice which is sticky and I want to be a bit more thorough. If you feel there is an after taste issue, you can also soak over night once a week with a teaspoon of baking soda in it. Several options for you, I hope that help.

No problems with mine. Have they always been that way, or has something possibly gotten around them? I periodically wipe mine down with alcohol wipes to remove any oils, creams, make-up etc. in addition to germs.

I think they have added chlorhexidine, which kills plaque bacteria, but I would stay away from the premium ones. They used to be larger and thicker. now they are smaller and thin to the point that my dog swallows them whole after a couple of chews. I returned my last order because I was afraid my dog would choke

It happens the first few times I use it after being off of it. Use smaller amounts, try just putting it on teeth while in shower for 5 minutes. Don't brush your teeth vigorously before using.I found the product I ordered online very runny compared to what I had purchased in store.

After calling customer service at Truudeau for help I was told that the salt that comes in the shaker causes the two elements to stick together. It was suggested that I use dental flow and run it around the slight opening between the top and bottom. I did this and it cleared the salt residue and now I have no problem getting the two parts apart.

most likely it's thermal shock. That's normal in hard plastics like this. They all do it. The B&D; is esp. notorious since they all fit together very tightly. That's not a bad thing exactly. I've had to nearly glue some of mine in other brands together so they stay put. It's annoying, but it's better then they don't stay together ever.

I wear an upper and lower night guard, to protect against my grinding my molars during sleep; I've used Retainer Brite on my clear-colored guards, and have never experienced any staining -- but that could be because I immerse my guards into an ordinary kitchen cup with tablet dissolved in warm water. My dental office staff advised me that once-a-week tablet cleaning is sufficient; on all other days, I gently clean both guards with a soft tooth brush and regular-old Colgate (which is the least abrasive toothpaste). I don't own the Sonic Cleaner, although Amazon had asked me (in an email) to respond to your question.

Mine was like that too which I used for a while. Then I went to a more expensive one from Sporting Smiles. However you have to make a mold and send it off and they mail it back. It covers all teeth. I like it better.

I had that same thing happen to mine as well. Unfortunately these toothbrushes don't last longer than like 2 years. You will probably have to order another one. That's what I had to do. My husband has one and he's had it for almost 2 years I think so I may have to get him a new one too if that happens with his. It stinks but they are a great toothbrush in my opinion.

Because California likes to slap warnings on just about everything. This teether is made from food grade silicone which is not a carcinogen. I have no idea how it would have come by the warning, but I'm not terribly concerned about it. Sometimes it feels like EVERYTHING causes cancer, and silicone is nowhere near the top of the list of my concerns. But hey, way to take a feature used to gain information about a product and turn it into a BS sanctimommy judgement. Kudos. Edit: maybe a better question would be WHY does this product have a prop 65 warning attached. That's actually a useful product question, and I'd be interested in the answer. :-p

If you make your tooth well, it will not fall out. I eat with mine all the time and chew gum, and drink coffee. Have no problems other than staining. Pretty sure the manufacturer recommends not eating, sleeping or chewing gum with your temp tooth though!

I don't know, I'm sorry to say. I used the product on my car & didn't experience this problem. I would put the question to the company (or at least check and see whether their website has FAQs that are relevant). In your shoes, I'd probably try scrubbing the area gently with a toothbrush and some mineral spirits, just to see if anything might come loose. Sorry to hear of your troubles!

Yes, mine is brand new, and I can't deal with the rattling racket, so I'm considering returning it and going back to the good-old floss. Besides, the waterpik use left food particles between my teeth, which the after-flossing captured.
