You know we all try to look out for our kids and do whats best for them then something like this happens. I'm glad we have this forum so we can all help each other out too. Thanks for posting this as I had no idea about this either.:)

I just sent in for a refund. You can go to the Cool Blue Agent website and download a form to get a refund. You just need to mail the form and the back label from the bottle to them.

I'm sure once they fix the problem this product will be back on the market and be fine to use!! We still eat beef even though they scared everyone into thinking we would all get mad cow.So I say give it time to run its course and safe usable product will be out soon!! :) :)

i don't realy know i'll ask him

[mom2fussbudgets]

I know, LOL! You rinse with the cool blue, and it stains the areas of your teeth with plaque still on it. In other words, it shows you what you missed!
