Charcoal toothpaste is often marketed as a natural whitening solution, but it’s actually quite abrasive, and regular use can gradually wear down your enamel rather than protect it. Once enamel is worn away, it doesn’t grow back, so it’s not a risk worth taking for the sake of a subtle change in colour. If you’re looking for a safe way to brighten your smile, our team can talk you through teeth whitening options that won’t compromise your teeth.
