Talk:Cetylpyridinium chloride

message: The article lists the molecular weight as 339.99 g/mol, but the second external link (chemicalland21.com) lists the molecular weight as 358.07 g/mol.  What is the correct value?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.175.195.68 (talk) 17:48, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This page has the molecular weight for cetylpyridinium chloride (C21H38NCl) and chemicalland21.com has the molecular weight for the hydrate (C21H38NCl·H2O).  Both are correct in terms of what they refer to, but it's best for our article to stick with the parent compound as it is currently.  -- Ed (Edgar181) 17:56, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Questionable information / inconsistencies 

message: I don't know enough about the subject to claim that this is biased, and maybe it's just because it is very incomplete, but it makes the chemical sound so bad that it would make a better terrorist weapon then a mouthwash ingredient. It sounds like an attempt to get people to switch to listerine brand or something.
Can that really be true? A Google search quickly turns up studys that show that it does indeed reduce oral bacteria, contrary to what this article claims...
Someone smarter than me should look at this article.

replies: text: I don't believe it is. Cetylpyridinium Cl has, to the best of my knowledge, always come with the caveat that it can cause temporary discoloring of the enamel. It might be effective as an oral health product, but it's not without its faults. Exigence (talk) 19:00, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

text: Nowhere on the Crest website, linked to by reference number 4, does it claim that brown stains are a possible side-effect of using the mouthwash.  I checked the site thoroughly and have removed the invalid reference in the introduction.  The only thing I saw that was remotely close to this was the fact that the blue dyes in the "Clean Mint" flavour can stain some dental work and can cause temporary stains on teeth (which are removed with normal eating/drinking).Mkubica (talk) 03:23, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Is this biased? 

message: I have been using Crest Prohealth for a little over 2 years now.  I brush using proper procedure at least twice a day.  I have noticed in the past few months that the spaces between my teeth are stained brown.  I recall reading about this a year ago but forgot until I read it again on this Wikipedia page.  Definitely seems to match my experience.

replies: text: It is very probable, that if you hadn't used the Cetylpyr-bromide mouthwash, your teeth would have gotten the same brown stain, because this is normal plaque discoloring that occurs to most people. Thats why you go to the dentist and have a full teeth cleaning every year.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.98.246.169 (talk) 23:46, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  Cetylpiridinium chloride, in many people, will absolutely cause unsightly brown staining. Crest Pro-Health faced a class-action lawsuit over this staining, and added a warning to the back of the bottle. My teeth were stained by it recently, and I was astonished to see that the first paragraph of this article claimed the opposite (until I removed the claim, which was unsupported by the given citation). See http://andywibbels.com/crest-pro-health-mouthwash-turning-customers-teeth-brown for hundreds of similar reports.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.115.134.154 (talk) 07:42, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
