The “Gentle Charcoal” Benefit
Activated charcoal is famous for removing stains, but many charcoal pastes are too gritty and abrasive. Tom’s of Maine uses a super‑fine charcoal powder that actually lowers the abrasivity of the whitening formula compared to some standard whitening pastes. This makes it enamel‑safe for everyday use, letting you lift surface stains without damaging your teeth.
Fluoride for Cavity Protection
Unlike many trendy charcoal pastes that skip fluoride, this one includes sodium fluoride (0.24%). That means while you’re scrubbing away coffee stains, you’re also actively fighting cavities and strengthening your enamel—giving you the best of both cosmetic and health worlds.
Texture and Taste
-
Texture: It’s a black paste that turns into a light grey foam. It’s smooth, not sandy.
-
Flavor: A cool, sweet Peppermint that freshens breath instantly. It doesn’t taste “burnt” or like ash—just minty fresh.
What You Get
-
3-Pack Value: You get three 4.0 oz tubes (sometimes 4.7 oz depending on the batch), which is plenty to keep your bathroom stocked.
-
Clean Label: No SLS, no artificial flavors, no artificial sweeteners. It’s vegan and gluten‑free.
Warning: Charcoal paste is messy! It can leave black speckles in your sink if you don’t rinse it away, so just be prepared for a little extra cleanup after you brush
