Mint Flavored Professional Strength Tooth Polish - (Coarse Grit)

Great prophy paste. Removes stains & gets the job done. I do use my electric tooth brush when using.

I love the way my teeth feel when I leave the dentist office, and I've been trying to up my dental hygiene game (having your first-ever cavity at age 42 will do that to you!). I've been experimenting with a variety of toothpastes, flosses and the WaterPik, and then I stumbled across these while browsing through dental hygiene things. It looked just like the little cups my hygienist used, so I figured if I did this once a month or so, that would be a great way to keep things ultra-clean.The little cups arrived in pristine condition, packed in a tiny bag. I ordered the mint-flavored X-Coarse grit. Heeding some of the earlier reviews, I used a toothpick and a bit of water to mix up what was in the cup, creating more of a gel-like consistency that could be easily scooped onto my brush. Though I do have an electric toothbrush (and will use that next time!) this time I just wanted to use the manual brush to get a better feel for how it works, how it feels on my teeth, and places that might need a bit more attention.It went on the brush just fine. I was very pleasantly surprised by the grit - not too much, not too little, but just like what my hygienist uses. I used the brush in circular motions all over my teeth, paying close attention to the areas between the teeth. The taste was very nice. I used half the cup, then rinsed out my mouth, then went over it again with the other half of the cup. I finished up with a swirl of mouthwash to help ensure all the grit was gone.I LOVE the way my teeth feel after using this. They are slick and clean, fresh-feeling, just like they should be. I noticed that it whitened my teeth just a little bit almost immediately, which is a nice bonus, so I can imagine it would work well on stains. I found that I had to be a little careful around the gumline at the front, as it was really sensitive to the grit, but by taking care and going slowly with the toothbrush, that shouldn't be a problem in the future. However, if you do have really sensitive gums or teeth, perhaps a lighter grit would be a better choice.Needless to say, I'm pleased. I'm thinking about using this once a month, so that's a little over a year of treatments for less than ten bucks - not bad! I will definitely order more when I run out.

Purchased a few times for myself and other members of my family. Does remove some tartar/plaque. Just be careful not to use often so you do not damage your enamel of your teeth. This will make your teeth brighter. Different flavors indicates different coarseness. Start off slow and easy. I sometimes add to my regular toothpaste using regular toothbrush and only once a month front and back of teeth. I use a toothbrush and not a polisher cause I found that there is better control with using a toothbrush opposed to using a polisher tool. This is just MY personal preference. This should not replace your regular dental prophy checkups.

This review is for Mint Flavored Professional Strength Tooth Polish - Medium, Coarse, or X-Coarse (X-Coarse Grit). Good thick paste. I used this with my electric tooth polisher and it really did clean out the coffee and tea stains on my teeth. The mint flavor is sort of mild to me but I was more interested in the grittiness and not necessarily the flavor. I had ordered X-Coarse in Mint flavor and Medium in bubblegum flavor but they both seemed about the same to me. What matters is to not go overboard when using these so as to not damage the tooth enamel. There are 14 to a pack and one is sufficient per session. I fill the tip of my polish and work each section of my mouth separately until I get all sections done. The result was actually quite amazing! Overall, great professional strength tooth polish paste and it left my mouth feeling nice and clean as if I did just come from the dentist. I would recommend it and I’d give it a 5.0/5.0 - 06/24/2023.

Bien

Don’t expect a lot of minty flavor from this, but do expect it to be effective and not too pricey. I use it as a way to help my gum disease from getting worse due to buildup of tartar and plaque. I use this in conjunction with a tooth polisher device that is similar to the one a dentist uses. It’s very effective. It’s gets all the schmutz from below the gum and with regular use in combination with good oral hygiene it’s helped with preventing tooth decay. It’s got a funny texture if you aren’t aware that it’s a dental hygiene product, and not for fresh breath. It’s just as easy to use as toothpaste and the color is similar to a forest green, but it’s a bit different in every one.

I’m new to the tooth polish use, but beyond psyched to have finally found it since I have bonding on 4 front teeth, which cannot be whitened by teeth whiteners. And I drink English and chai tea daily!This dark green paste is NOT what dental hygienist use at a dentist cleaning. It’s a far cry from it. Their’s is more granulated and dry, this is like a jam consistency and has a few granular particles here and there. Tastes not great.Before I bought the wand I experimented trying to get tea stains off my bonding with a rough dental file which made their surface quite rough, irritating my inner lip in a couple days. Not clever, I know :). So I came across the polishing wand on amazon and I use this green stuff to try to smooth that out. It did a little, but wasn’t that porcelain polish a dentist gives.Lightbulb moment. I realized baking soda was a super fine polishing texture and totally safe on teeth.Sure enough, I dabbed my polishing wand in that and in seconds I had pearly white super soft glistening teeth again!Everyone has baking soda and it’s dirt cheap. I’ll never buy a paste again. Only downside, baking soda of course has no fluoride but who cares, your toothpaste does!
