  • Let's look past the marketing to find the real differences (and similarities) between toothpastes.
    A dentist's guide for how to find out what ingredients are in toothpastes and which ones you should be looking out for. What are the differences between the different kinds of fluoride? What is potassium nitrate and why might you want it in your toothpaste? Does whitening toothpaste actually do anything?

    I live in the UK and I find many tooth pastes, especially whitening ones, give me sore dry chapped lips. My skin must be sensitive to a particular ingredient and when I brush I usually get alot of toothpaste foam around my lips. So I had to be really careful about which brand and which type I choose. Currently I find Colgate Sensitive with Sensifoam works brilliantly. No bad reaction. But some of the other Sensitive pastes from Colgate do react with my skin. I just hope this product remains available.

  • @mh.1603

    I do have a question about not using any toothpaste at all. There's a doctor who doesn't use any toothpaste at all as brushing without toothpaste is just as effective. How would someone even keep their mouth from bad odors that way?
    (P.S: Your voice is extremely soothing.)

    Love this explanation. I always tell my husband there is no difference between that $7 dollar tube of Sodium Fluoride toothpaste and the $2 one from Colgate. It’s all in the marketing.
    One other thing I would consider too, is taste! I use pepsodent (or aim if I can’t find it,) because the taste is pleasant. I always follow up with a mouthwash as well.

  • @bernardocisneros4402
    @bernardocisneros4402 Před 8 měsíci +2

    From experience, I totally agree with going to the dentist and having a dental hygienist clean and polish your teeth to remove any stains. During your visit ask the dentist or hygienist what you can do to prevent the staining. Maybe you need to stop or cut down on drinking dark soft drinks or coffee with cream and sugar. They might even say you can continue to drink and eat as before but you need to brush differently or with a different type of brush or toothpaste. I was getting stains on the inside of my bottom front 4 teeth (the 4 between the canines) from drinking coffee with cream and sugar. I was able to continue drinking coffee with cream and sugar but I needed to brush my teeth 20 to 30 minutes after I was done drinking and if for some reason I wasn't able to brush them, I was told to rinse and swoosh my mouth with warm water immediately after I was done drinking my coffe to help dissolve and spit out the remaining sugar in my mouth. Both the brushing and rinsing with warm water took care of the issue.
    I would avoid using whitening toothpaste, but if you decide to use it, only use it for a week or two. If the stain doesn't go away during this time, discontinue using it and go see a dental hygienist. Whitening toothpaste will wear away your enamel after using it for a long time. If you wear away your enamel, you will have yellowish/brown teeth. Not a good look.

    This video and the charcoal video I found very helpful! Thank you! I’m curious about mouthwashes... I know you said whitening toothpaste is just more abrasive but what about whitening rinse? Say I use crest strips to whitening my teeth, what would you suggest in between for surface stains? A rinse or toothpaste?

    • @drtyler2075
      @drtyler2075  Před 3 lety +5

      White Strips work pretty well. They have the same active ingredient that some "professional" whitening gels have, just at a lower percentage, so they might work a little slower. Toothpaste might work on the stain between your teeth, but that might be tartar, which will need to be scraped by a hygienist. I don't think the mouthwashes do anything. They have some peroxide in them, but probably too low a dose to actually be effective

    Unless you drink alot of coffee, black tea, or red wine, you typically don't develop enough stain to need a whitening toothpaste, as most toothpastes are capable of removing small amounts of surface stain.
    Originally, this style of toothpaste was marketed towards smokers and coffee drinkers. Topol was the first big one in the US that I remember back in the 80's, but Rembrandt was the first one that started the whitening fad. Probably because Topol had a reputation of being very abrasive, whereas Rebrandt was alot milder.

Crest whitestrips did more to whiten my teeth in 3 weeks than a near lifetime of whitening toothpaste did any way.

I am curious as to whether one or the other has more anti-bacterial effect.
