Activated Charcoal Toothpaste
Activated charcoal is everywhere; it is the latest thing in wellness and you will find it in loads of products including juices and now toothpaste. Let's be clear this is not the same charcoal as you find in your Weber BBQ!
Activated charcoal has been used in clinical applications since the 1800s. In 1831, Tovery stood before the French Academy of Medicine and ingested a lethal dose of strychnine mixed with charcoal. In one of the most classic demonstrations of the benefits of this substance, Tovery suffered no ill effects from the strychnine because of the simultaneous ingestion of charcoal. In 1834, Hort, an American physician, reportedly saved the life of a patient by administering charcoal after the patient had ingested mercury bichloride.
Over the next 150 years or so, charcoal was further refined, purified and activated to improve its adsorptive powers. Sadly, it has only been more widely accepted as an essential tool in the management of poisonings for the past twenty years.
3 benefits of brushing with activated charcoal
1. Charcoal toothpaste removes stains.
This toothpaste is a fantastic way to remove external stains (discoloration from substances on the outside of the tooth, like wine, coffee, berries, other staining foods). Keep in mind, though, that this isn’t the same thing as whitening teeth. Stain removal, however, is still an important part of keeping your teeth beautiful.
Caution: Activated charcoal products may stain grout and fabrics, so protect your counters, floors, and clothes, before using.
2. Charcoal toothpaste removes acidic plaque and gives us fresh breath.
Brushing with this kind of toothpaste raises the pH of your mouth because the charcoal binds to acidic elements and increases their rate of excretion from the body. This can help reduce the buildup of acidic plaque and improve your breath if you struggle with halitosis.
3. Using charcoal-based toothpaste aids dental health
We all need a balance in our oral microbiome. Proper use of charcoal toothpaste may provide this balance, while also helping to prevent damage by making sure your mouth’s immune system is operating at top levels. Plus, it’s not just benefiting your immune system—some evidence suggests that using activated charcoal can even improve bad cholesterol.
