I believe you posted this several years ago, and like a naive innocent, I believed you and ruined my teeth.

Before doing this, I verified with you that it would be safe to use on my whole mouth restoration set of teeth. You assured me it would be safe.

After one time, it took the enamel off my ceramic restoration, ate away at the “gum” paortions, and put a permanent brown stain where the top of the enamels meet the “gum” line.

My ^70,000 investment was ruined.

Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) and Dakins Solution (a 20 to 1 dilute solution of 7% Sodium Hypochlorite NaOCl) cannot do what you claim happened. Neither of those substances can effect any ceramic restorations. Not at all. Sodium BiCarbonate has a Mohs hardness of only 2.5 while normal tooth enamel has a hardness of 5. Ceramic surfaces have a Mohs hardness of 5 to 7 depending on the material used. That is on the statement of one of the world's top dental implantologists who uses all manner of materials for restorations. This protocol is use for every implant patient we have with exactly those kind of restorations and even other using plastics. He has never seen either do any damage to any such restoration in over 40 years of practice.

I call BS on your post.
