Looking for a gentle way to whiten your teeth at home? Or maybe you’re just scared of the dentist? The best whitening toothpaste will bring visible results after only a few uses.

How Does Whitening Toothpaste Work?

The basic purpose of a whitening toothpaste is to remove the pigmentation from the surface of your tooth enamel after it’s been stained by coffee, tea or food, and restore its natural white shade.

Whitening toothpastes use two basic principles: mechanical and chemical. The first type is loaded with abrasive ingredients – small particles that physically sand down your tooth enamel.

Whitening toothpastes with chemical action contain peroxide which removes colour pigment from the very structure of the tooth.

Want to lighten your teeth with a natural method? Try whitening them with charcoal! Charcoal whitening toothpastes have been increasingly popular and bring satisfying results. Their characteristic colour is caused by charcoal which removes plaque and stains in a gentle, natural way.

TIP: Just like charcoal toothpaste, teeth-whitening powders have gained a lot of popularity for restoring the bright white colour of your teeth. A whitening powder works similar to a toothpaste – the difference is that your teeth are cleaned with the powder itself, not a powder with bonding agent.

How Long Does It Take to Whiten Your Teeth with a Toothpaste?

Even the best teeth-whitening toothpaste can’t offer the same results as professional teeth-whitening. It all depends on the toothpaste itself, its ingredients and its whitening effects.

If you want to lighten your teeth by one or two shades, a whitening toothpaste is the perfect choice. You’ll be able to see the results in a few weeks or months.
