Surely everyone wants to have a confident, radiant smile with bright white teeth. Using whitening toothpaste is the optimal solution to have a radiant smile from within. Although it does not bring immediate results like professional teeth whitening methods at the dentist, whitening toothpaste is still an easy and safe choice when deciding to whiten teeth at home.
1. Why should you use whitening toothpaste?
The pigments in dark drinks such as coffee, wine, tea, or cigarette smoke and tobacco residue stick to the teeth, causing them to turn yellow. Using whitening toothpaste is the easiest way to restore bright white teeth without spending too much money.
2. The difference between whitening toothpaste and regular toothpaste
2.1. Similar
Toothpaste all have the same basic ingredients, including Flour, which is an anti-cavity substance, strengthens tooth enamel and protects teeth. In addition, toothpaste also contains foaming agents, thickeners, abrasives, etc.
2.2. Different
In addition to the basic ingredients similar to regular toothpaste, whitening toothpaste contains a larger amount of abrasive particles or substances that can polish teeth as well as substances that react with stains so that when brushing teeth, yellow stains can be easily removed.
3. Choosing an effective toothpaste
The following factors should be considered when choosing a whitening toothpaste:
3.1. Ingredients
The ingredient list is the most important factor when choosing toothpaste. Because not all products are suitable for everyone. In case of tooth decay, irritation, and inflammation, you should choose products containing many anti-irritants, making oral hygiene safer and more effective.
3.2. Less abrasive and foaming agents
Whitening toothpaste products often contain a large amount of abrasive and foaming agents to whiten teeth more than regular toothpastes. However, if the product contains too much abrasive, it will damage the enamel. You should choose toothpastes that contain fine abrasive particles (Hydroxyapatite) with a content that does not exceed the limit to avoid improper tooth abrasion leading to damage.
3.3. Toothpaste brands
You should choose toothpastes from large, reputable brands sold at genuine stores such as supermarkets or convenience stores. Choosing to buy products with guaranteed quality will help whiten teeth safely and effectively.
