For canker sores, do you apply full strength on cotton swab? For yeast, is it also full strength on a tampon? Does it get on sheets during the night?

Hi. I use this product to treat skin fungus with excellent results!Nothing else has worked. I apply the liquid using the cap/brush that comes with the bottle. I don't use a tampon, but I always let it dry on the spots I treat and wipe the excess off. So far I haven't seen any of it rubbing off on my sheets, but I use it mainly on the inside of my arms. I hope I was able to help. Good luck with this excellent product.

I'm not certain, since I don't have access to a test lab to do a count on test swab cultures. From what I know, the principle is sound, but I can't independently vary it. According to the directions that come with the wand, you have to expose the surface for a constant 5 to 10 minutes to get a 99% kill. Lesser times will give you a lower bacteria kill. Hope this helps.

As a nurse, been using this for years. No alcohol. My husband with his rough ,cracked, working hands, also swears by it! Does not sting!

I had my own trays from the dentist that I use but the product is very strong so I only use it 15 minutes 2 days in a row before I take a break. My gums get a little sore even at this rate.

Julie,It is normal for the product to run. My advice to you is instead of putting it on a cotton swab, pour a bit on the back of your hand and apply the product with your fingers because that way you get the most benefit of the product. This is the way I've been using it since I first started using the product. Hope this helps!!!

I use Fixodent or the full upper plate,,lasts all day, gives up after dinner unless put on pretty thick, in which case it is a PITA to remove. For the lower partial I use sea bond wafers, works quite well. Good luck, Ron

I have a wonderful essential oil nebulizer. I put one drop (germ fighter is very strong) of germ fighter with three drops of lavender in the nebulizer and diffuse into the air at night. It helps me sleep and keeps me healthy. This is wonderful stuff.! Anybody know how to make a toothpaste from this stuff? I am thinking that would be good too!

I always put a little alcohol on a paper towel and wipe the denture inside after I have washed it. The Cushon Grip definitely adheres better when this is done.

I just ordered this product. According to the directions: 1) Shake well 2) Apply 1 capful to cotton swab and gently rub stained areas for a few minutes. It should be applied daily. Hope this helps!

I started with the .5mm because I'm very fair skinned and slightly sensitive to begin with, so wanted to start at the lowest level and see how that goes. My first try, I pressed enough to feel the little needles, but not hard enough to make my face more than slightly pink. A couple days later I used a slightly more pressure and yes, it's somewhat uncomfortable but not so much as to stop doing it, after that time my face was pretty pink with a tight feeling for a couple of hours. Again, the third time and ever since, I've pressed harder (never enough to draw blood at all) and now my face stays red and feels tight for 4-5 hours and I have received a few compliements on "glowing". My suggestion is to always start slow and build up. And it's really important to rinse/clean the roller in alcohol after each use and let it dry before placing back in holder.

If these are the 'bigger' syringes, I generally get around 5 or so treatments per tube. I drink red wine, so about every other week or 2, I 'treat' my teeth. You may be able to get 6 if you don't slather it on your trays. I love this stuff!! Its all I use. Been using it now for around 5 years or so. In about 10-12 minutes, it does the trick, and you have beautiful white teeth!No light needed, I just stream it in my custom made trays and the gel does the work!

The label says it is alcohol and water based. It is an amazing antiseptic or mouth sores' healer.

It did for me, but I have only used it for one incidence that I cannot guarantee was BV. It seemed like it was, but it could have been a very strange yeast infection...possibly...though I am pretty sure it wasn't. Of course, BV symptoms could be caused by a really bad STD type bacteria, too. I highly doubt it would be of any use for that. I tried this product for what I believe was BV because it has prebiotic. Prebiotics have been shown to be effective vaginally for BV. It did work, quickly, for me. Symptoms were gone completely in several uses. I kept using weekly for the next two weeks. Symptoms never came back and I used no other treatments. So?? It did for me, but I have only used it for one incidence that I cannot guarantee was BV.

Maia, did you try this formula for your husbands lips and did it work if you did? If he has Angular Chealitis where the lips crack in the corner, the actual skin of the lips are constantly chapped and peeling, and the skin sloughs off at the corners of the mouth down the sides, then you may want to try Dried Mango. I get that stuff from here on Amazon-from the Philippines. It doesn't make it go away for good but it sure keeps mine under control, at least the sores and the lip peeling. They say this is caused by a fungal infection. I would really like to know if you tried the honey salve tho? Maia, did you try this formula for your husbands lips and did it work if you did?

The cotton swab is mainly used to wipe solvent into the bore then use a brush afterwards. You dip the swab into solvent then stroke it in the bore several times but a lot of guys just use it to dry the bore as well.... They are washable... I thow mine in the dishwasher... lol

If this is your first time using this strength, be careful if you have sensitive gums. If you do, it is recommended to smear some Vaseline over your gum lines, being careful to not get any on your teeth. With the 20% strength, it is recommended to leave the molds on for 4-6 hours, or overnight if you think your gums can handle that. They claim to be formulated so to not sensitize your gums but I do notice some tingling when I leave them on overnight. Hopefully you have dentist made or actual molds that fit close to perfect. Inject a BB sized drop in each area of the mold that would fit over your REAL TEETH, not over crowns as they won't bleach out. I usually drag the syringe from each tooth area and when I come to the crowned areas I just drag a little bit in those areas. I have all my wisdom teeth and end up using about a half of a syringe for both top and bottom molds. Also, do not use if you have inflamed gums. Use a mouthwash regularly until your gums are healthy prior to application. You can bleach once a day depending on how well you tolerate the gel. I usually bleach for three days in a one week period. Also, avoid coffee, wine and berries while you are bleaching. For some of us, coffee is a must, so use a whitening mouthwash and/or toothpaste after eating or drinking any of these culprits. Do not "over brush" your teeth and if you notice inflammation or sensitivity, STOP using until your gums feel and look healthy. Hope this helps and happy smiling. Oh, store the gels in your refrigerator for longer life and let them come to room temp before applying.
