Product Information

Created by oral care experts, the formula combines LA Pacific’s unique whitening enzyme along with: Our research found that, while claims were generally supported, the overall benefits of expensive formulations may only be marginal.

Hydrogen peroxide (a bleaching agent) is commonly used in whitening toothpastes, but it's a bit of a red herring as the legal limit for over-the-counter toothpastes is too low to actually affect the colour of your teeth. Pentasodium Triphosphate - acts as a stain dissolving agent preventing food particles from settling on the teeth. Zendium gave us evidence from clinical studies that support the combination of antibacterial enzymes in this toothpaste (amyloglucosidase, lysozyme, glucose oxidase, lactoperoxidase and lactoferrin) for plaque control and to reduce gum inflammation and bleeding.Our experts doubted the concentration of bleaching enzymes possible in an over-the-counter toothpaste could offer a clinical effect - this is the same for any whitening toothpaste. Colgate said evidence for this formulation was also commercially sensitive, but there is evidence that the zinc oxide and zinc citrate combination used has antibacterial properties, which our experts said should give this product advantages in reducing gum inflammation vs basic fluoride toothpastes. Stain removal should be reasonable with this toothpaste (better than regular fluoride toothpaste), thanks to abrasives such as silica, and surfactants (foaming agents) including sodium lauryl sulfate and cocamidopropyl betaine, plus the addition of phosphates for tartar reduction. L.A. Pacific’s Stain Removal Enzyme Whitening Toothpaste contains natural enzymes that whitens teeth by loosening and lifting surface stains.

Low abrasion Silica works to gently remove stains from the surface of the tooth and restores the natural brightness. RDA Relative dentin abrasivity 75​​* Based on the evidence given by LA Pacific, stain removal using this toothpaste would be better than basic fluoride toothpaste, but the claim it can ‘brighten’ teeth with ‘natural bleach’ might be overstating things. Zendium's marketing based on oral bacteria and enzymes instead of minerals is unique, but again, while it will be better than conventional toothpastes at reducing gingivitis, cavity protection should be similar. There isn’t enough clinical evidence to support cannabidiol, aloe vera, or vitamin E for gum health, and as with Colgate's gum toothpaste, ‘invigorate gums’ is not a scientifically meaningful phrase. It doesn’t contain SLS (sodium lauryth sulfate , a surfactant), which Zendium claims makes it more suitable for ‘vulnerable’ mouths. Evidence for this is mixed; SLS may irritate some, but is mostly well tolerated.Colgate told us its studies on Elixir White are confidential so it was unable to provide us with any specific evidence to show it's better than other whitening toothpastes. L.A. PACIFIC products are Cruelty Free, Vegan, and free from Hydrogen Peroxide, SLS, Parabens, Tricolsan, Propylene Glycol and Alcohol. Toothpaste alone isn't a magic solution though. Proper brushing technique and interdental cleaning are also vitally important for good gum health. Sensitivity

But there are also plenty of marketing claims, such as ‘strengthens enamel’ and ‘prevents decay’, that are redundant because all fluoride toothpastes, regardless of price, will do these things. But, you can find the same or similarly effective stain-removal ingredients in cheaper products too. Arginine, stannous fluoride, potassium nitrate, and Sensodyne's Novamin all have proven sensitivity-reduction properties. Where to buy cheap toothpasteHow to choose the right toothpaste - which ingredients really work, and what to consider before you buy Boosts good bacteria and reduces bad bacteria to help fight the causes of cavities and gum problems LA Pacific Enzyme Whitening Stain Removal Toothpaste might just be the world's very first enzymatic whitening toothpaste. Offering at-home results, the enamel-safe toothpaste promotes a whiter and brighter-looking smile without the harmful effects of using hydrogen peroxide. Through consistent use, it helps polish the look of teeth, brightening and fortifying against future staining. There's no synthetic bleach, giving you teeth whitening that doesn't damage teeth in any way or cause sensitivity. Eugenol and ginseng root extract may have antibacterial properties that help reduce gum swelling or bleeding, but we didn’t see robust evidence about their concentration or action in this specific toothpaste.
