Customer Reviews of Orajel Medicated Protective Mouth Sore Disc - 8 ea
Customer Review: not for inside lips!
Summary: 4 Stars
I often suffer from canker sores caused by accidentally biting my lips and cheeks and I've long been a fan of the type of solution which coats the sore in a protective film. I expected this product to be the next level of protection, which it may be for some, but I wouldn't recommend it for sores on the lips. The discs are much thicker and harder than I expected (like a sweet tart with beveled edges). The user is instructed to place the disc over a clean, dry sore and let it slowly dissolve to form a thick protective seal. I could definitely see this being a lifesaver if you're suffering from a cheek sore because it's a flat area, but it was a nightmare on my lip. At first it wouldn't stay still - it wanted to slip out of my mouth - and once it started to adhere it created a gummy film, but started sticking to my teeth and gluing my lip to them. Once I decided to give up, I tried to remove the undissolved and partially attached portion of the disc and it wouldn't come out ... I couldn't eat (which is why i bought this item in the first place) and I spent the better part of my workday looking like Marlon Brando. I'm keeping the extras, however, because I really think they'll work well for cheeks.Customer Review: For cheeks only, not lips!
Summary: 2 Stars
I agree with the reviewer who said that this product is better suited for the inside of your cheeks instead of your lips. These discs do swell, and if you place them on your lips, it will look like you have a breathmint or piece of gum sticking out of your mouth all the time.
The product does effectively numb the area and protects it from food and other things, but the box should make it clearer of the places in your mouth that it's suited for.
Customer Review: Completely misleading product
Summary: 1 Stars
I get canker sores a lot on the inside of my bottom lip area. I got these discs because it stated it made a bandage over the sore. What they don't tell you is that they swell to twice the size and start oozing this horrible gel into your mouth that coats your teeth. Then after I decided that this thing was disgusting, I tried to remove it. It was almost impossible to get it off and when I did finally remove it, it took some of my skin with it making the canker sore even bigger. Awful product.
