Safe teeth whitening is something I advocate for as a dentist. Many of my patients have asked me about using whitening toothpastes to help whiten their teeth at home, and I always tell them to be extremely careful. That’s because a lot of whitening toothpastes use abrasive additives to basically scrub the stains away. That may work in the short term, but the stain isn’t the only thing being scrubbed away – the enamel goes bye bye, as well. That was before. Now I tell everyone about Tom’s of Maine Luminous White Whitening Toothpaste for safe teeth whitening.
