Hello gorgeous! Long time no see!
I know I have been MIA on the blog from the last 6 months or so. Well I hope that you guys still want to read my blog and this review though.
This time I am going to review a whitening toothpaste coming all the way from Switzerland, pretty far away, huh? The product is Swissdent Extreme Whitening Toothpaste. Want to know more about it? Let’s dig in!
Having a bright white teeth of course have been many people’s dream, including me. But being a coffee and tea lover (and wine occasionally), it’s hard to maintain a bright white smile. You guys know how bad those things can stain your teeth, right? I’ve been curious and wanting to try the teeth brightening procedure at the dentist for quite sometime. Unfortunately, the cost of the procedure is quite hefty, so I keep on going back and forth with the plan hahaha..
Then a friend came and introduce me to Swissdent Extreme Whitening Toothpaste. A whitening toothpaste that claimed to be able to brighten your teeth in only 7 days! A quite ambitious toothpaste if I might say hahaha..
First, I’m going to share with you what I know about Swissdent. Swissdent is an International company based in Zurich, Switzerland which founded by Dr. Vaclav Velkoborsky, a specialist in cosmetic dentistry. The company has been researching teeth whitening procedures since 2006, so I’m quite convinced that they know what they are doing with the teeth.
Let’s start with the packaging. The box is dominated with red and white colors and kind of reminds me to Colgate Optic White packaging. You can see the ingredients list on the box and on the toothpaste packaging.
If you are worried about how abrasive this toothpaste on your teeth because its extreme name, believe me that is not the case. Swissdent understands that most whitening toothpaste usually is quite abrasive and could scratch the enamel, damaging it and wearing it over the time. But Patented SWISSDENT-Formula, Micronized calcium peroxide < 0.1 % and fruit enzymes (Papain and Bromelain) remove plaque gently and acting as mild polishing agents.
It also contains Coenzyme Q10 and Vitamin E to promote healthy gums. It’s SLS free and has a good amount of fluoride to protect your teeth from caries.
The texture is the same like other toothpaste but the color is not as white as the others. It smells minty but surprisingly it doesn’t produce a lot of foam when you brush your teeth. So for some people who are used to foamy toothpaste (like me), it’s going to feel a bit weird in a few first brushes. You will feel that it doesn’t clean your teeth enough or thinking how this product is going to be able to brighten my teeth when it seems that my teeth is not covered well by it. Those are just your mind though, the result will show you that this toothpaste is actually working brighten your teeth.
Normally, people spends 1 to 1.5 minutes to brush their teeth. But the utmost rule when using this toothpaste is that you need to brush your teeth longer which is around 2 minutes or more. I get accustomed to brushing my teeth at a longer time previously because of my weirdly positioned molars that needs to be brushed meticulously to make sure that they are well cleaned. 2 minutes is not a problem for me.
Now let’s go to the result. The picture below is the comparison of my teeth between day 1 to day 7 using Swissdent Extreme Whitening toothpaste. As you can see, my teeth looks brighter and it’s not as yellowish as before! You can also see that there are dark spots on the corners of my teeth and those dark spots look brighter now. I did not feel any discomfort on my teeth or an increased sensitivity during my usage. So hopefully this toothpaste will do well on those who have sensitive teeth too.
I have tried whitening toothpaste before such as Colgate Optic White and Pepsodent Whitening Toothpaste, but none of them gave me visible result like Swissdent.
You can use this toothpaste whenever you want, daily or when you think that you need a charming bright smile to impress a lot of people. As for me, I’m happy that I don’t need to cut back on my coffee/tea/wine consumption. 2x2 mins a day and my teeth is bright and look great!
