Charcoal is currently one of the biggest trends in the world of cosmetics. It is a fine powder from coconut shells and other natural substances that are oxidized under extreme heat.

Lot of people have doubts in their mind whether or not if it actually works?

So let me help you clear that in a dental perspective, charcoal is abrasive meaning it will remove surface stains that occur from coffee and tea but not completely.

It's also a bit of a visual psychology. After applying the toothpaste on your teeth, the color of the toothpaste is black and you stare at your teeth for a couple of minutes after you brush it off it will seem to be whiter than they actually appears to be.

Moreover, most of the charcoal toothpaste doesn't contain enough flouride which is a nesscesity in every toothpaste to prevent the decays. When you use the charcoal toothpaste for a long period of time because of the abrasive nature it can cause sensitivity.

MOUTHWASH GOOD OR BAD??

Lot of people ask me"if we should use mouthwash containing alcohol" hold your brakes let me tell you it's a big NO NO!!! It's way too harsh. I actually wouldn't advice anyone to use mouthwash unless specifically told to do so by your dentist. You will be wondering why?? So have you guys ever seen it says kills 99.999% of bacteria? That kills good bacteria in the mouth to help keep your mouth healthy and restore a balanced microbiome. And if you swallow that mouthwash it will kill 99.999% bacteria in your stomach gut microbiome too!!

Ofcourse you need good bacteria!!

Please follow this for good oral hygiene

: Brushing twice daily for 2 minutes

:Flossing

:Eating balanced diet ; include probiotics

:Drinking water

If you feel like refreshing with a mouthwash from time to time then that's fine, but don't make it a habit for every single day.

XOXO

STAY SAFE & SMILE BRIGHT LIKE DIAMOND
