does it have any acids (citric?) that would erode the tooth enamel?

Nothing in it but seaweed...specifically the label says "Contains only specially selected seaweed D1070. Free from artificial colors, preservatives, gluten and sugar. Rich in natural iodine." Seems to work well for my Irish Terrier.

It only lists dried seaweed meal! It says it is free of artificial colors, preservatives, gluten and sugar! Rich in natural iodine.

Ditto to other response by asherah--nothing but seaweed but seems to work. My 5 year old cat never has bad breath and no build-up of plaque so far.

The Ingredients listed: Dry seaweed meal. It also states that it is "Free from artificial colors, preservatives, gluten and sugar. Rich in natural iodine". I have been adding this to my dogs chow religiously twice a day for over a year. I think their teeth are marginally improved, but enough that I keep using it.

Not that I am aware of. It's 100% natural made from seaweed. You can take a look at the manufacture's website here http://www.plaqueoff.com/for-animals/product/.

I'm in agreement with the previous 3 responses. Label states "Ingredients: Dried Seaweed Meal - Free from artificial colors, preservatives, gluten and sugar. Rich in natural iodine."

I'm not sure about that, but according to the ingredients it is supposed to be just seaweed.

I don't see the key remineralising ingredients on it, so I don't think so. Generally the ingredients "trace minerals" and various forms of calcium like dolomite (which you can buy right here on Amazon!) are what to look for.

I do, but get regular dental checkups as this may wear on enamel, so be careful

According to the nutrition facts on their website, each mint weighs a total of 0.6 grams, and 0.5 of those grams consist of xylitol. It's the main ingredient. So each mint is five-sixths, or about 83% xylitol. If you're curious, the second ingredient is calcium lactate, which according to Wikipedia (based on some caries research), is added to sugar-free foods to prevent tooth decay. When added to chewing gum containing xylitol, calcium lactate increases the remineralization of tooth enamel. The last three ingredients are gum arabic for texture, peppermint oil for flavor, and beeswax for the surface glaze.

All I can say is that the explanatory reading that accompanies the product and is on the website states that it is not harmful to teeth and that the flouride strengthens teeth, has calcium, etc., such that I decided to take a chance. If you wish, you could go to the Supersmile website and ask the question of them. Good luck....

My 7-year-old likes to use it. She's not a fan of our "spicier" doTERRA toothpaste. I'd rather she use this than nothing at all. We don't use fluoride anyway.

No. It is very acidic and has a taste that is not exactly what I would call good

I don't think so. It is the consistency of regular toothpaste, but it just doesn't foam. I spit it out just because I'm not used to swallowing toothpaste, but you could swallow it. My four year old does. It almost feels like brushing with just your toothbrush, but my teeth are whiter than ever with no whitening toothpaste. I've also had throbbing nerve pain with some of my teeth. I know xylitol can rebuild tooth enamel, so I rubbed Earthpaste straight on my throbbing teeth. A couple days later, not pain and it hasn't come back. I'm pleased with this toothpaste.

Well it burned my gums like fire !!! Had to rinse it put after only a couple of minutes !! If that helps any !! :(

No...I have used this product for a couple of years (almost daily) and haven't noticed any difference with my teeth!

I haven't had any problems with the Citronella, but the only thing I can think of is any type of concentrated citrus oil is will be rather corrosive just like eating citrus and the enamel on your teeth can be damaged

No - none that you questioned. BUT I really don't see a difference in my dogs teeth either. So I quit using it. I'm an all natural person myself and don't like using a lot of 'stuff' on my pets.

I do not know if fluoride is an ingredient. But I would advise you to go with the next level of strength at a minimum. I found that the 4 tubes at the 10% level was not strong enough to do the job of whitening my teeth. I saw no change so I went to the next stronger % and that helped but think I should have gone to an even higher % to really do a good job. Or maybe I would have had better results with another 4 tubes. 10% might be ok to maintain your teeth whiteness once you have them white. I would go as strong of a product as I could without making my teeth to sensitive and uncomfortable.

The Plus White teeth whitener does not state the per cent of Hyrogen perozide it contains. ingredients: water,glycerin,carbomer,hydrogenperoxide, Peg-60 hyrogenated castor oil, sodium saccharin, potassium stannate, disodium pyrophosphate,etidronic acid, ammonium hydroxide. Hope that helps. Would not buy it again.

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.

Not that I'm aware. Chlorine, acidity, ph... the usual suspects. Easy to use (not as easy as the strips I bought afterwards).

Not sure chemically, but non toxic to animals, not sue about children as I don't have any little ones, but assume it includes them as well. I thought it might have hydrogen peroxide in it, possible, but doesn't have a bleaching action like peroxide frequently does. sorry, not much help but is the best on the market I've ever found.
