Teeth whitening toothpaste

Is whitening your teeth bad?

The difference between teeth whitening and teeth bleaching

The first thing to understand is the difference between teeth whitening and teeth bleaching.

Teeth bleaching is usually carried out by a dentist – or under the supervision of a dentist – using bleach gels or products. Home bleaching kits are also available.

Bleaching uses a chemical process to make the teeth whiter than they ever have been previously.

The dangers of teeth bleaching

• Your gums and oral mucosa – the tissue that lines the mouth – may be sensitive to the chemicals used in bleaching… particularly if you already have sensitive teeth
• Some bleaching patients say their teeth feel sensitive during or after treatment. Other side effects can include discomfort in the gums or a sore throat
• Teeth are more prone to staining after bleaching

Gentle, natural teeth whitening

At Curaprox, we don’t believe in home bleaching products.

We believe teeth whitening should work towards restoring your teeth to their original whiteness… in the most gentle, natural, healthy way possible.

We like white teeth… but we LOVE healthy teeth.

Whitening should never damage your gums or oral mucosa.

Oral care should never be harsh or abrasive.

You need to protect your teeth enamel. If it starts to erode, it can lead to sensitivity and pain.

The best teeth whitening toothpaste

Can toothpaste actually whiten teeth?

If you want whiter teeth, you no longer have to put yourself through expensive, potentially harsh and painful bleaching treatment.

There are many whitening toothpastes on the market.

But not all whitening toothpastes were born equal.

Some are more effective than others.

Some are gentler than others.

And, unfortunately, some contain harsher ingredients than others – such as sodium metaphosphate, zirconium silicate and calcium pyrophosphate.

Beware abrasive whitening toothpaste

The higher the Relative Dentin Abrasivity (RDA) score of a toothpaste, the more likely it is to use these ingredients… and the more likely it is to:

• Erode the enamel on your teeth
• Damage your gums and oral mucosa
• Lead to enhanced sensitivity

We believe effective whitening toothpastes should be gentle.

We believe they should actually care for your oral health.

SLS, Triclosan and other nasties are not what we want for you.

We want you to enjoy exceptional oral health and whiter teeth – naturally.

• Grapefruit + bergamot, peach + apricot, watermelon, gin tonic + persimmon, blackberry + liquorice, apple + aloe

• It’s gentle whitening with glucose oxidase – a natural enzyme that reacts with the sugar in the mouth to create a low concentration of hydrogen peroxide in the saliva that i) whitens the teeth and ii) directly combats bacteria
• The glucose oxidase additionally takes care of your tooth enamel and gums because it activates the natural lactoperoxidase system of the saliva, which also has an antibacterial – as well as an antiviral and antifungal – effect
