Crest mouthwash could stain your teeth

Sample News Big
Crest Pro-Health mouthwash is being sued for apparently failing to inform users that it could stain their teeth. 
Allegedly, Procter & Gamble, the pharmaceutical company that makes the mouthwash, has failed to warn customers about potential brown staining to their teeth. Now a lawsuit filed has been filed against the business in Michigan federal court.
The mouthwash, which has been on the market for more than six years, contains a chemical which can cause tooth discoloration but its labelling fails to notify consumers.
The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan by Leslie McQuillan on behalf of a nationwide class of thousands of customers.
FindLaw.com reported Laura Brinker, a Procter & Gamble spokeswoman, saying: “The mouthwash kills 99 percent of germs, is dentist-recommended and meets Food and Drug Administration standards.
“Tooth discoloration is not harmful and may indicate that the mouthwash is working.”
However, Brinker did encourage dissatisfied customers to contact the company and added that flossing and brushing can put a stop to staining.
Ms McQuillan’s complaint alleges that Procter & Gamble breached the mouthwash’s warranty as the company knew they were selling a product that did not do what it said on the label, violating Michigan’s consumer protection laws
She is now seeking damages and an injunction against the Procter & Gamble.
