Doesn’t live up to its expectations.

published

I am 78 years of age and my teeth are discoloured due to age. I have looked after my teeth and cleaned them all of my life. I bought this product believing that it would make my teeth whiter. It was extremely expensive. I have been using it for over a month and it has not made the slightest difference. I will not be buying it again.

Purchased in March 2021 at Amazon.

Love this toothpaste

published

I’ve used this product for a number of years. This toothpaste seems to work well with my teeth. It’s also great tasting - really fresh and lasts.
Only downfall is it is quite expensive for the size, but other than that I love this product!

Extreme tooth pain

published

After using this toothpaste for a few days, I developed 2 significant ulcers inside my cheek and severe tooth pain. An Xray at the Dentist and an appointment with the Doctor concluded that there was no infection or anything else that should be causing the pain. After ceasing using Optic White for 5 days, teh pain finally subsided.

Severe tooth pain!

published

Thought I would give this product a try to whiten the teeth either side of my front teeth that had veneers fitted a few years ago due to an impact injury. After using this toothpaste for just a couple of days, the sensitivity in one of my front teeth was unbearable. Might be fine on whole teeth but agony on one of my teeth that has a veneer fitted. Will never use it again.

Purchased in August 2021 at Woolworths for $8.00.

My all time favourite toothpaste!

published

This is honestly my favourite toothpaste, it whitens my teeth so fast and they look so white and shiny. The only thing is that it’s a bit on the pricey side, but totally worth it. I sometimes switch to normal toothpaste when I can’t afford optic white but they don’t even come close at keeping my teeth super white. Definitely 10/10

dissapointed tottally...

published

From one month me and my husband are using this toothpaste...now I reveal that it is making my teeth rough from inner side and sensitive to cold and hot. My gums have become weak. I feel that my teeth have become thin now. Whenever I brush my teeth, I feel that something is shedding. Yeah it whiter my teeth but weakened it also.

It really works. I drink lots of coffee and I am finding great results. My teeth have never been whiter. So far i have used several tubs for 3 months now. Well worth the extra money. You get what you pay for.

Disappointing

published

My teeth are healthy and I was excited about using this product to see if it would make my teeth whiter. I got sucked in by the marketing; I have been using this toothpaste for about 5 weeks and it has not whiten my teeth at all. If anything it made my gums more sensitive to cold. The marketing is a lie and the product a waste of money. I won't buy again and I don't recommend.

I was disappointed with the result

published

I purchased this product because it was on sale at Woolworths and used it as per the instructions on the packet. After two weeks of using it, I can see only a very slight improvement in the whiteness of my teeth. It's certainly nothing that stands out. Also when you brush your teeth with this product you can actually feel the abrasiveness of the paste which is a worry and the aftertaste is absolutely horrible. As a toothpaste this product is OK but don't think you will end up with teeth like Jennifer Hawkins as seen in the commercials. Would not purchase this product again.

If you have sensitive teeth seek sendodyne

published

If you have sensitive gums / teeth consider an alternative . Very fresh though . Great clean feel but I will give to my husband who has less sensitive teeth

My go to

published

My partner and I are both heavy smokers and have found optic white to be the most effective reasonably priced toothpaste for fighting stains as wel as bad breath. It’s our go to for affordable toothpaste

Superior White and clean fast

published

Best Whitening Toothpaste would use on coffee stained teeth, will give whitening results fast and cleans good. May cause some cold sensitivity, sensitivity not as bad as previas/older whitening toothpastes of multiple brands.
Cation with how often you use this toothpaste! It does what the box says and daily toothpaste isn't this powerful. You will still see whitening using it every 2 or 3 days.

Ouch!

published

I have been using the toothpaste for a little over a week and I now have sections of my gums that are red, swollen and very sore. Will never use again. It may whiten teeth (to early for me to tell) but damages gums at the same time.

I can only feel pain

published

I got this because I heard it was good for teeth whitening. I was suspicious of how strongly and aggressively it smelled but ignored it. I should trust my nose more. After using it for a while, my mouth was constantly tender. My throat is damaged and I cannot eat or drink without a good amount of pain. My teeth feel sensitive and my tongue is numbed, along with my sense of taste. After I realised, I immediately stopped using it. Now I have to wait for my entire mouth to heal. So, no, I probably wouldn’t use this ever again in my entire life.

This realy works

published

A friend told me that his daughter used this with great results so i got some and wow it does realy work .a bit expensive at $10 but well worth it even my dentist last week told me apart from dental bleaching this is the only product he recommended

green teeth

published

I got this product thinking it would work well. I didn't tell my partner I was using it, I wanted to see if he noticed any difference...he did...he said my teeth looked green...I switched straight back to a regular toothpaste and thankfully my teeth went back to normal...

The Colgate tube!

published

My teeth are stained, I have seen a little change, which I wouldn't say the toothpaste isn't working, but my complaint is the actual tube. It doesn't hold up to daily use, toothpaste oozes out of the tube.

Is Paris Burning?

published

'Cause London is drowning,and I, I live by the river. Well to be accurate Paddington sometimes and now this bears honey cakehole is hurting more than a Norfolk Square curry house after a Heikell incendiary drop.The only way I can use this product is to mix it with a quality Australian toothpaste - say 90% Cedal Spearmint or Denitex Mint with 10% Colgate White Hot Optic Pain Mexican Walking Fish Chilli paste.

No effect after several weeks of use as directed

published

I have healthy teeth and recently noticed they were turning yellow especially which was evident during shaving in contrast with the white shaving foam.

I tried this product for about 6-7 weeks once a day and did not notice any significant improvement, far from the claims on the packaging. I don't think I will be trying this product again to see if another 6 weeks of use will have any impact.

Buy some quality Australian made toothpaste like Grants or Cedal.Mix on brush a match head size blob of optic pain with a much bigger blob of the good aussie stuff. You could get years of cleaning-your teeth may even whiten without pain. Goodluck and go you good thing.
