Lawyer Says Mouthwash Causes Brown Stains On Teeth (Crest Pro-Health)

8:03 am EDT August 7, 2009

DETROIT -- A Detroit-area lawyer is suing Procter & Gamble Co., saying his teeth have brown stains after he used Crest Pro-Health mouthwash.

Mark Rossman's law partners filed the lawsuit Thursday in federal court in Detroit. He says P&G should put a warning on the bottle.

Rossman of Harper Woods says his wife noticed brown on the edges where teeth meet other teeth. Despite flossing and brushing, the 34-year-old says the stains won't go away.

A message seeking comment was left with Cincinnati-based P&G. On a Web page, the company says stains may be a sign the rinse is working because dead germs may be accumulating on teeth. P&G says the stains are not harmful and could also be due to certain drinks.

The lawsuit seeks class-action status.

For some reason, "dead germs may be accumulating on teeth" doesn't sound right....or appealing.

:D

Just ignore the brown stains.
