They will come back if you don't use it regularly (eg 2x a day). Remember you should not eat or drink ANYTHING within 30-60 minutes after using it. This will reduce the effectiveness of the medication and make the taste/tongue problem worse | M | 29 | 2 weeks 15 2X day | 1/26/2014 | 1 | Pre-op wisdom teeth | Wow I am so unbelievably mad my oral surgeon prescribed me this to use before my surgery. I use it once tonight and immediately after, my tongue started to feel as if I left it on a burning stove for an hour. The taste in my mouth is absolutely horrible. I swear if I wake up in the morning and it's the same and I can't taste my food, I'll flip out. This stuff is poison.

Still a bit irritated almost 24 hrs after discontinuing use. | I used Peridex 6 months before for a previous gum surgery experience and did not notice any negative side effects.

No problems with the lower gums but they now look worse than the top of my palate. | SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE MARKET !!!!!!!! My lips are also dry and it has altered the taste of food and drink.

NO More !!!!!!!!!! | F | 59 | 30 days 3X day | 2/16/2013 | 1 | Cavity control | Same lack of taste and numbness as other users. Cannot taste through out the day and the tingling is intolerable.

I now have healthy gums and the taste and the burning of the tongue subsides after a few uses. GREAT PRODUCT! Would strongly recommend it for curing gum disease! The staining of teeth is minimal and very easily removed by a qualified dentist. | M | 32 | 3 months 2x a day | 7/1/2012 | 1 | gum infection diagnosis | Burnt tongue; sides of gums irritated; I thought it was because of using a sonic care tooth brush so i used a manual toothbrush and still no relief; started reading reviews of peredex and not i am not happy; i am going to throw this crap away and fire my dentist (like he cares) | M | 35 | 2 weeks 15mg 2X day | 3/17/2012 | 1 | gum disease | I have lost my sense of taste, had not put 2 and 2 together until i started reading this reviews i also lost my sense of smell so i do not know what is going on. | F | 32 | 3 days | 3/5/2012 | 1 | DDS recommended | OK for the first few days and then it started feeling like I ate something really hot(temperature-wise) and it burned my tongue and lips. Foolishly kept using it for too much longer, because I didn't think it was this stuff, but it was. Burnt, raw feeling on tongue. Tongue is very red. Burnt, peeling, Chapped lips. Plus stains on my front teeth which DDS says he can polish off. | I called DDS, he said to just use Listerine 2xs a day. DO NOT use this stuff!!! No matter what your DDS says, DO NOT USE IT.
