I have read that some people have had problems using activated charcoal if they have amalgam filling or crowns. Did it affect them?

No. I have crowns and amalgam fillings and I did not encounter any issues using this products. I actually started using it because of my fillings.

You mean your teeth didn't get any color on them? It usually takes me a while to get the color off. Better yet, just go to Ora wellness website for a good brushing technique and you're not going to need these anymore.

Depends on your enamel. I had no problem with mine as this stuff isn't as potent as you'd think. I had better results with my personal bleaching trays from my dentist

I have a missing front tooth that I use temptooth for. (this product is awesome by the way totally worth the money!!) I leave mine in to eat all the time. It says not to but you can do it. as long as the tooth is in tight enough and you aren't eating something real sticky or gooey. A couple of times I ate something that was kind of sticky or gooey and my tooth came out in the food. I felt it right away both times and was able to just put it back in real quick without anyone noticing and was just real careful while eating the rest of whatever it was I was eating. At first I thought I shouldn't leave it in when eating something that could stain it like spaghetti with the red tomato sauce that it would stain it but I have left it in when eating these types of things and it hasn't stained it at least not where it is noticeable. I do take it out when brushing my teeth just so I can get the teeth around it cleaner without it in the way but if you had to brush in front of others I guess you could brush with it in. They say not to sleep with it either but I have a couple of times and it stayed in place and was fine. Again as long as the tooth is fitting tightly enough that it doesn't easily fall out. Usually I take it out at night though. I have made several backups to use just in case one does accidently get swallowed when eating or I forget to put it on it the morning. A couple of times I was so tired in the morning on my way out the door to work and just totally forgot about my tooth but luckly I had a backup in my purse that I could use and didn't have to go all the way back home to get it. If I don't tell people I have a fake tooth they don't even know.

I have heard this same thing. It hurt my sisters teeth after a bit. If you have sensitive teeth, then in it will cause pain. It doesn't bother me at all.

Lump charcoal burns very hot. I would STRONGLY suggest the old standbye, Kingsford. Works for me and should for you too! :)

I would say no- There is no charcoal or other odor absorbing material in its makeup. I wear it under my scent loc.....

I am an environmental specialist and I have been taking this product for about 1 year now. I get what you are saying about the metals. The only advice I can offer is to follow the directions and not drink it undiluted. The levels are safe when consuming a healthy diet that will help to expel any harmful toxins. I also take chlorella and bentonite clay which greatly helps to remove toxins and metals from the body. I hope very much this helps a little. If you still have questions ask your doctor. They might be able to answer more thoroughly. Also, I put this in my diy toothpaste and it has helped to remineralize my teeth.

No not al all , activativated charcoal is safe for human consummation, it's what they give you when doctors don't know what bad drugs you took,it detoxes safely, and great for everything else. Clay is used to absorbe heavy metals in the body.

I have not been affected by the citric acid in this mouthwash and I have been using it for years. My dentist has not notice any change on my enamel. If in doubt ask your dentist on your next visit if you decide to use this mouthwash.

Yes - floss, carbon and ceramic rings.I may opt for not using the charcoal anymore and double-up on the ceramic or floss.

Hi, I'm older and I believe it helped to some degree. I think my teeth are very difficult. It probably worked as well as anything I have yet tried. However, I don't see my teeth ever being pearly, pearly white.

I've used my current set for 30-40 hrs working with wood. still can't smell wood with the mask on. It may depend on what you are breathing in. the activated carbon may saturate quicker with harsh chemicals

I have switched to lump charcoal. The lump charcoal holds the heat longer so you are not constantly adding charcoal to the fire especially when you are smoking meat for several hours.

Gas-X has never done a THING for me - before or after gas starts. Activated charcoal capsules will stop gas in its tracks every time though. Try these peppermint capsules as a preventative. As someone else noted, eliminate all sugar and artificial sweeteners from your diet, and you will see a big improvement in your symptoms. (Use 100% pure Stevia instead.)

Absolutely! It can fix a filling nand looks a lot more aesthetically pleasing than old metal fillings. You only need to keep saliva off untill it sets, 15 minutes. Mix a bit more powder than liquid for a faster harder set.

Hi Michael,I did a litte research and there were no harmful effects that i can see but the tooth sensitivity was greatly increased when I used the product. I could not use the product fro more then 2 days in one session.
