Qilu.com · Lightning News March 24th, where the “magic” goods are, of course, you have to find Pinduoduo. On Pinduoduo, there seems to be nothing that cannot be solved. Are you tall? There is a plaster that can grow taller overnight at the age of 55.

“Magic” toothpaste claims to grow new teeth overnight
There are also some magical toothpastes on Pinduoduo. These toothpastes with similar functions are advertised that patients with missing teeth and missing teeth do not need to go to the hospital for dental implants. As long as they use this type of toothpaste, even an 80-year-old can achieve Tooth regeneration.
In a shop called Renhe Dental Clinic, the product picture reads “60 years of missing teeth, say goodbye to dentures. “Seven days of prominence, useless and free.” Although there are 79 products displayed in this store, when you click on the product details page, you will find that these products that claim to be able to grow teeth are actually the same product, that is, “Personal Propolis Conservation Toothpaste” produced by “Nanjing Tongrentang Green Gold Home” .
When I clicked on the product details page, I found that the function of the product is “tooth stain removal” or “cavity prevention, curing teeth” and “gum care” have nothing to do with teething. So what is the function of this product?
The reporter contacted the customer service of the store. Provide him with a picture of the mouth of a patient with periodontitis. The customer service told reporters that even if the teeth fall out due to severe periodontitis, it does not matter even if the sockets of the long teeth are closed, as long as you use this toothpaste from their family, you can grow new teeth. However, unlike the one-night effect advertised in the product picture, the customer service said that new teeth can only grow after insisting on using it for 1 month. Subsequently, the reporter placed an order for a toothpaste, the price is 12.82 yuan.
Experts: It is a fantasy to grow new teeth only with toothpaste
The reporter compared this “Ginseng and Propolis Conservation Toothpaste” with a common one on the market. The toothpastes were compared and found that in terms of ingredients, the main ingredients of the two toothpastes are almost the same, which are water, calcium carbonate, sorbitol, hydrated silica, etc. The difference is that this “magic” toothpaste also contains ginseng and propolis extracts. Can tooth regeneration be achieved with these things alone?
The reporter consulted Zhang Shijie, director of the Department of Orthodontics, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University. Zhang Shijie said: “We humans have only two sets of teeth in our life, one set is deciduous teeth, which start to grow in 6 or 7 months, and will be fully grown at about two years old. The other set is permanent teeth. After the deciduous teeth fall, the permanent teeth will become It will grow out at about 12 years old, and there will be no way to grow new teeth after that. Now some patients with missing teeth and missing teeth can be treated by dental implants, but by trying toothpaste to grow teeth , is a fantasy.”
Lawyer: E-commerce platforms should review the qualifications of merchants
Some people may say that these advertisements are It’s so exaggerated that most people won’t believe it at all. But don’t forget, there are still many middle-aged and elderly users on Pinduoduo. They have only been exposed to online shopping for a short time, and they have not yet developed a pair of sharp eyes to distinguish authenticity. When the body is unwell, it is difficult not to be moved by the discovery of these “artifacts” on the e-commerce platform. In addition to economic losses, more importantly, the elderly may be convinced that they only need to use these “artifacts”, instead of going to the hospital for treatment, and thus delaying treatment.
Shandong Xinliang Law Firm lawyer Chen Zhengbin said: “According to the “Consumer Rights Protection Law”, operators should provide consumers with information about the quality, performance, and use of goods or services, which should be truthful. , comprehensive, and must not make false or misleading publicity. If the information released by the business operator on the online trading platform is untrue, unrealistic, and purely deceitful, it is false publicity, and consumers are the victims of fraud , has the right to ask the merchant to return the goods and compensate for the loss.”
In addition to the merchant itself should be responsible for the false propaganda, Pinduoduo as an online trading platform should also bear the corresponding responsibility. Chen Zhengbin said: “For online trading platforms that know or should know that merchants use their platforms to publish false information to infringe on consumers’ rights and interests, and fail to take necessary measures such as deleting, blocking, and disconnecting links, they should be jointly and severally liable with the merchants, and suspected violations may be punished. The regulatory authorities will punish.”
Chen Zhengbin also said that Pinduoduo, as an online trading platform, should review the merchant’s store name, promotional pictures, product introduction and other information. The name of the store involved in this case is “Renhe Dental Clinic”. Such store names containing “clinic” and “dental” have certain professionalism. Pinduoduo should strictly review the attitude of being highly responsible to consumers, otherwise it will be liable for legal Responsibility.
