I’m going to blow your mind - teeth stains

[SleepFreeZone]

So I’ve been really ill the last few days. Looked in the mirror this morning and I look shockingly bad. I’m due a trip to the hygienist in a months time but my teeth were looking a little stained in places( even though I stick to herbal tea nowadays) and I was all ugh about it.

I was pondering whether I should dig out my Colgate whitening strips when i suddenly thought of my magic eraser that gets rid of every stain in the house. I decided to google using it on your teeth and people actually do it so I thought I’d give it a go. I tore off a tiny bit, wet it and clamped inbetween some tweezers and incredibly lightly just brushed it over the stained areas. I swear the stains just came right off. How mad is that!! I’m not saying anyone should go mad with it and rub away their enamel but honestly it’s worked better in three servings than anyone of the toothpastes that threaten to remove stains (and don’t).

Are the sponges really made of melamine? If so, it is poisonous isn’t it. Didn’t babies die in China because there was melamine in their powdered milk? Also on the sponges it says that if you use it to clean something that is in contact with food you should wash the pan etc thoroughly afterwards. There is no way I would put one in my mouth!

MyDog if that’s correct those poor babies would have would have been ingesting large quantities over time surely. I’m not sure that’s comparable although it’s a fair point?

! Instead of ?

Oh the irony of a sensodyne advert under this thread! Going to grab a magic sponge on my way to brush my teeth.

I’ve got a Kia Sportage advert. Should I clean my teeth with one of those?

I’ve got Sensodyne Pro Enamel now

Those magic sponges are good to use on dull yellowing headlights. This was a tip from the garage body repairer.

What magic eraser exactly? What brand, where to buy? I've never heard of it before this thread but it sounds amazing.

Best thread EVER

Can the student dentist please some back to explain why they should never be used on teeth?

Ella, because she'll have to reconsider her profit margin if people start whitening their teeth at home lol

You don't have to flush wet wipes to be causing environmental damage with them! The ignorance is sometimes just astounding.

I agree, it very wasteful to use wet wipes for cleaning.

Also, I don’t think there is much variation in the different brands of magic erasers. I buy them in the pound shop and they are fine.

What those magic erasers that contain formaldehyde? Yeah great idea! I think the vapours may have already done your brain in.

Formaldehyde is not and has never been an ingredient in Magic Eraser. One ingredient in Magic Eraser (formaldehyde-melamine-sodium bisulfite copolymer) contains the word “formaldehyde” in its chemical name. However, this ingredient is not formaldehyde and poses no health or safety risks. (Think of this name like “sodium chloride”, which is table salt. Sodium by itself can be dangerous, but sodium chloride – salt – is safe.).

Yep, I've got a pop up ad for toothpaste too. Scary.

I’ve got FitFlops now. Can I clean my leather shoes with a magic erasor?

I have an advert for a dental implant specialist

Presumably for when my magic sponge has destroyed all my teeth?

I use my magic eraser thingies for cleaning the rubber bits on converse.
Tempted by the teeth thing though.

The adverts at the bottom of my page often mirror the thread
title/Contents . Is that not the same with everyone? Is big brother watching only me

😂 I see this thread deteriorated nicely overnight

I wonder how many people tried this yesterday or are planning a purchase to try today??!

Brilliant! Away to try it! I always thought they were chemical too, until recently when I read the packet, it's only sponge, no chemicals!

I am going to the dentist on Monday so I’ll ask her about it. I may even live MN during my checkup, scale and polish.
