Sage Products Recalls Toothette Oral Care Perox-A-Mint Due to Cross-Contamination

Sage Products Inc. is recalling Toothette Oral Care Perox-A-Mint solution because it was manufactured on equipment shared with non-pharmaceutical products, posing a cross-contamination risk.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, and the source text describes a theoretical cross-contamination risk without reporting any specific illnesses, injuries, or hospitalizations, which aligns with the criteria for a moderate severity score.
