To use this for teeth whitening, is there any special procedure? Use it like toothpowder & work it with toothbrush, let it stay on the teeth?

Jasper...I simply take about 1/4 tsp. of the charcoal and place it on a papertowel. Then I wet my toothbrush and slide the brush sideways so that the charcoal will adhere to it. Then I brush the way I would normally brush my teeth and then brush with a regular toothpaste afterwards. Just be careful to keep your mouth over the bathroom basin since the charcoal is black and can be messy.

There are a few methods. One, you could use it with your toothpaste, preferably one without fluoride, and brush normally. This is what I do. Be sure to rinse thoroughly because it leaved a black residue. Secondly, you could use trays and leave them in for a few minutes then rinse. Lastly, you could dip or sprinkle it on your toothbrush and brush then use your toothpaste after.

Yes ...work it with your toothbrush as you would normally but brush a little longer than you usually would

Just dip a wet toothbrush into the powder and brush your teeth. Rinse really well. Best to do this at night before you go to bed!!

I put some in a separate cup first that way it's not exsposed to moisture, then I use it without any toothpaste. Also be aware of clothing becuase it could stain.

For best results, thoroughly floss and brush with water (especially tongue) first. Then, brush thoroughly with the charcoal powder. Pay special attention to gums, between teeth, and tongue. Let it sit on for a few minutes and rinse. You'll have to brush with water to get it all off. I personally like to floss again, but probably not necessary. Hope that helps :) Enjoy!!!P.S. I also put some in a small container (w/lid) to use just for teeth. Furthermore, I put some in my face wash and it has really helped my adult acne :)

I have a replica that was molded to conform to my teeth. I put whitening on the front facade conforming to the front of my teeth and insert the replica in my mouth for the night. I get 3 or 4 uses from each syringe. It's an art, but the amount squeezed on has to be just sufficient to do the job. It's easy to put on too much.

No it does not whiten it reduces sensitivity after whitening. It is also supposed to reharden teeth from decaying enamel but I am not sure anything can really fix tooth decay. However I can attest that it did help my teeth feel less sensitive after using a separate whitening product.

Hi. There is a 1:3 ratio of hydrogen peroxide in carbinute. 10% peroxide. Hence your faster whitener is hydrogen peroxide.ZOOM works wonders, just be careful of your gums. I put the gel on my teeth half way up and let tray push whitener up. I cover my gums with blister. That is how strong it is...I hope that helps.

Hi Julianne - I purchased such one about a year ago. Works perfectly and gives a treatment can't be achieved with toothbrush. I'm very satisfied. I use it on a 220V out of the US (works also on 110V, in the US). Best, Yuval (yuvalinbox@gmail.com )

I make a toothpaste with it, detox baths, facials, and drinking for detoxing. I searched Pinterest and found all kinds of ways to use it. We love it!! Oh yea, we also add some to our homemade mouthwash. It is good for remineralizing your teeth.

No, it's used to strengthen enamel after using teeth whitening. Whichever teeth whitener you use it makes your teeth sensitive. This will take some of that away and strengthen your tooth enamel

My teeth have already been bleached. I just need touch ups from time to time, so one touch up makes them really really white again. I have used this product in the past purchased from a real dentist and it worked fine. I have to say I got no results from the product ordered online.I usually use 22% and this was the higher percent but it did not whiten my teeth like my touch ups usually do.I could not tell I had treated them even after 2 or 3 times of bleaching.sorry but my advice is get the stuff from a real dentist that whitens teeth

The instructions don't say anything about that. Because the whitening (depending on the strength) is rough on tooth enamel, it does say you should brush your teeth after whitening. There is a toothpaste - Pronamel that may help). I Hope this helps.

I use it after brushing my teeth with regular toothpaste - sometimes I use it as a "freshner" -- it makes my mouth feel so pepperminty and fresh. If you have an electric toothbrush, it works even better to polish your teeth.

You need to buy trays, I have ones my dentist made me. You might try mouth trays from the drug store. Put gel in upper and lower trays, if the gel is oozing out on to your gums, you are using too much. Leave on for 2 hours, repeat every other day or so until desired whiteness is achieved usually in a week or two. Then you must maintain whiteness by once a month application. Your teeth may become sensitive the first week, Advil helps. Works Great! Same stufff my dentist sells at a much lower price.

cover more then a white strip, go to NIGHT WHITE ON LINE and you can buy the same bleaching syringe's that my dentist sells and fill in the lower portion of the trays. Didn't like them at first but after a couple of times, think that they were worth the purchase.

First you need to purchase blank molds that fit over your teeth. The the product seems mild enough to be used every couple of weeks. It really works well and the price is right. Follow the instruction carefully. Making the mold to fit your bite is critical. I boil water in the microwave in a container large enough to hold the molds. Do one at a time. Be careful because the mold will be hot. Put it in your mouth and suck to pull the mold against your teeth. Keep it there until it cools and repeat the procedure with the other mold. Coat the inside of the mold with the product and follow the instructions on the length of time you expose your teeth to the whitener. Usually about 10 minutes. I also use a special light that wraps around my neck and shines on my teeth. You may want to consider getting one of those lights. Hope this was helpful.

There are little flat round batteries you can replace. Kind of tricky to get them in the right way but it works wonderfully. Really helps to speed up whitening. Can't believe it was so inexpensive.

you can, but it sadly won't work on the caps. It will only work on your real teeth. I suggest you Google whiten capped teeth :) I hope you can find a product that will help :)

i think its supposed to accelerate the process but im not sure. I stopped using it after 5 days. I honestly do not believe that light does anything because if it did, i think special eyewear would be necessary. My teeth whitens without it.
