Whitening toothpastes are a great place to start in the quest for a white smile. They remove stains so that the underlying whiteness of the tooth shines.

Think of these toothpastes as "carwashes" for your teeth. In the same way that a good car washing removes the dirt and grime on your car making it sparkle, whitening toothpastes remove stains and crud from your teeth making them shine.

Not all whitening toothpastes are created equal. Many whitening toothpastes use harsh abrasives to remove stains. The problem is that over long periods of repeated use, these harsh abrasives begin to remove tooth enamel making teeth appear yellow.

We suggest using one of the newer breeds of whitening toothpastes that do not contain harsh abrasives, but instead, use other methods for removing stains from teeth. The Dental Zone recommends SuperSmile toothpaste in particular.

Instead of utilizing harsh abrasives, SuperSmile toothpaste utilizes the patented ingredient Calprox. Calprox safely dissolves the clear, sticky protein film to which coffee, tea, tobacco, wine and other stains adhere. This makes your teeth appear whiter and feel cleaner.

Whitening toothpastes provide a great smile for many. However, the results obtained with tooth bleaching are sometimes better, although more expensive.
