Woman Brushes Teeth With Charcoal For 7 Days And Here’s The Outcome

#1

Known for its medicinal qualities, activated charcoal is excellent for the skin, stomach, and teeth.

#2

It’s also a highly effective at remedying accidental poisoning, treating spider bites, and purifying water and air, making it a must-have household item.

#3

The highly absorbent substance removes toxins that stick to the surface of the charcoal which is why it’s such a popular natural teeth whitener, especially for those hard-to-remove stains like coffee, wine, berries, and tea.

Kate Taylor is going to show us how to use this easy and inexpensive way to whiten our teeth using activated charcoal.

#5

She used to brush her teeth twice a day with a toothpaste that promises “advanced whitening.”

#6

Only a few people probably know that activated charcoal can be used in brushing the teeth. This super absorbent material contains millions of tiny pores that bind up poisons, chemicals, and even intestinal gas and safely remove them from the body.

#7

How can this product help whiten our teeth? Well, that same absorbent quality, which can bind up poison, can also pull out stains, bacteria and toxins from our mouths.

It might sound weird, but many traditional societies used twigs and charcoal as their main way of cleaning and caring for their teeth.

And this stuff works! In fact, you can even add some loose charcoal powder to your oil pulling routine for a daily cleansing and whitening boost.

#8

She then heard about how activated charcoal can help whiten and remove stains on the teeth.

#9

She was later assigned to do an experiment and to find out if this is just another claim only good for commercials.

#10

She combined activated charcoal with toothpaste to achieve whiter teeth.

#11

She used a bottle of charcoal capsules. By wetting the toothbrush, she carefully pulls the capsule apart and sprinkled the contents onto the bristles and do the regular routine of brushing the teeth for two minutes.

#12

When Kate started the experiment, she was aiming to come up with a Before and After photo that would show the big difference of using toothpaste and activated charcoal through her whiter teeth.

#13

However, the results came real slow.

#14

Although she did not get the whiter teeth she desires, Kate admits that her mouth feels cleaner.

#15

She also said that the charcoal neutralized her breath more than she thought it would.

#16

Kate was also pleased to learn about the alternatives to using toothpaste.

#17

And when asked if she would recommend using activated charcoal, she said:

“I’m not going to kiss toothpaste goodbye forever, but I would recommend trying charcoal to anyone curious who might want to go half a shade lighter without investing in pricey whitening strips.”
