I don't know, because I bought it to make mascara. Here's something I found, when I did a google search: "Dip a clean, wet toothbrush into the powdered charcoal (or dump a capsule of charcoal on the toothbrush). Lean over the container of charcoal and quickly put the charcoal covered toothbrush in the mouth (this is to protect your sink). Brush in small, gentle circles for 2 minutes, spit carefully and rinse really well. Your mouth will feel amazingly clean.... your sink, not so much! Use as often as needed." ....I also found this link on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xETW8UrBuzU Hope this helps! :) I don't know, because I bought it to make mascara.

Put it on your toothbrush - I only use 1/2 a capsule at a time AND it's messy

Yes! You break 1 caplet into a small cup and use a couple drops of water- I mixed it with my tooth brush then just scooped it up with my tooth brush and brushed my teeth GOOD with it. It makes a huge mess but totally worth it- after you are done (i brushed for a good 3 minutes) use regular tooth paste and brush away the black :) and you will have some bright teeth :) Try and do it once a week. If you google there are websites that give you directions too. Its pretty amazing.

I would never brush my teeth with an abrasive. Better to rinse mouth out with hydrogen peroxide and baking soda for several minutes. White teeth in minutes.

Don't brush it, it wears down enamel and might make you sensitive (or more so). Put a paste on your teeth and hold it n place with your lips for many minutes. Or if it's liquidy, swish it around, then "filter" it in your mouth (using your teeth and sucking motions) to get it to stay on your teeth surface. Then hold it for several minutes.

I want to add that I do it for about 4 to 5 days. For best results, use it right after a dental cleaning. Once your teeth get whitened, you can use it only periodically when you feel it is necessary or again after your next dental cleaning. Hope that helps.

You could use it before or after scraping the touge. Of course you'll get better results (non-white tounge) if you scrape before. It is a wonderful product and I will never be without. Best oral health product I have ever spent money on, and I've tried my share of products. Trust me on this one!

I use it once a day, either in the morning or at night after I brush my teeth. The container is supposed to last for months depending on the amount used. The results are very subtle. You must keep using it constantly to observe some improvement.

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 brush my teeth with Colgate upon waking and doing the normal morning routine. I also drink a couple of cups of tea each morning. After I drink my tea I will brush again and then I apply the whitening stick and let it set. I use it each evening and I apply a little bit more at night before bed so it can work while I sleep. I have super sensitive teeth but this product has not affected the sensitivity and I love it. It is so easy to use and results are great. If you do eat breakfast then as Jem stated wait about 30 minutes.

Great question. I Have not read anything on it. The suggested use is up to 6 months. My LO is 8 and does not have teeth yet, and I believe that is because both my husband and I had teeth later in age.

It happens the first few times I use it after being off of it. Use smaller amounts, try just putting it on teeth while in shower for 5 minutes. Don't brush your teeth vigorously before using. I found the product I ordered online very runny compared to what I had purchased in store.

I got this just for my bottom teeth. While nothing is as good as our real teeth this works wonderfully for me. I can now eat whatever I want. Still have problems with food getting under my teeth but I just have to rinse them off and all better! I use this all the time now. Good luck!

I use it in shakes but I don't know about use on teeth. Don't know if it would be too abrasive on enamel.

I have been using real tea tree oil for oral health since the late 1980s. When you brush your teeth, you should not be swallowing your tooth paste. I even take a drop of tea tree oil - orally - when I am getting sick. I have never ever had any adverse reaction. Additionally, you'll find tea tree oil in mouthwash and oral rinse too. Not sure how much you've heard about ingesting, but tea tree oil has been used for many generations by aboriginals of Australia and New Zealand for oral and physical health benefits.

If it's regular dental care just swish a small amount a few seconds after brushing. If there is a gingivitis or periodontal issue use a tablespoon swish and hold as long as you can stand it. You can also put some on a cotton makeup pad cut up and hold it on a spot for a while. I've also found that a product called Oregadent by North American Herb and Spice heals! (In addition to silver) ;)

You actually put a pea sized drop on your tooth brush with your regular tooth paste, and brush. That's it. Just fancy tooth paste.

Generally I use this once in the morning after I brush my teeth with regular toothpaste, I've found that it doesn't feel like my mouth is as clean as if I were to use regular tooth paste, that's why this is a follow up brushing, I use it just as I do my regular toothpaste, hope this helps

I researched activated charcoal online. This can be used if someone ingests poison or received a venomous bite. The charcoal can be mixed in water and taken orally. You can read information online. I use it to brush my teeth and have not taken it orally.

Yes! It is tooth powder - you could mix it with toothpaste or put some on top of the toothpaste on your toothbrush and brush away. You can use it by itself. I read on a Dr. Christopher website that people with gum problems make a paste and pack it around their gums and sleep with it that way and it has helped heal gum problems. I did this with a cavity on the gumline and credit this tooth powder with helping it re-calcify. Another smaller cavity was on a tooth surface and that also has re-calcified. I honestly didn't know this was possible, but it is!
