FAQ About Pearl Drops® Toothpastes & Toothpolishes
Q. Is Pearl Drops® safe for daily use?
A. Yes! All the Pearl Drops Toothpaste and Toothpolish variants are safe to use everyday and can be used in place of regular toothpaste.
Q. How long does it take to work?
A. Used daily (ie. In place of your regular toothpaste) you should notice a difference in a few weeks. It is important to remember that everyone’s teeth are different and that some people will see results more quickly than others. Individuals who have higher levels of staining will generally see results more quickly than others. Factors that can affect results are coffee/tea consumption, tobacco use and heredity. Pearl Drops® Beauty Pearls can help provide whiter teeth in as little as 3 weeks (with use twice daily).
Q. Why does Pearl Drops® whiten teeth better than regular toothpaste?
A. Pearl Drops® variants all have advanced cleaning systems that safely and gently work to remove stains and surface discolouration. Their additional stain fighters are not normally found in regular toothpaste and remove stains to leave teeth looking whiter and feeling cleaner and smoother. In fact, Pearl Drops® Beauty Pearls is clinically proven to help provide whiter teeth in 3 weeks.
Q. Is Pearl Drops® safe to use on crowns?
A. Yes!
Q. What causes stains on teeth?
A. Discolouration of teeth can be either within the tooth structure or on the surface. These stains can be caused from food and beverages such as tea, coffee or soft drinks, tobacco products which leave nicotine stains, the natural aging process, some medications, an injury to one or more teeth, poor oral hygiene or a combination of these factors. Stains are different from plaque, which is the slight dulling film that naturally forms on teeth everyday and can be controlled by proper daily oral hygiene. To effectively clean teeth and remove stains, abrasives must be used such as Dicalcium Phosphate, Calcium Carbonate and PERLITE. These abrasives are specifically formulated to be mild, gentle and smooth to ensure they do not wear away enamel.
