Colgate Optic White Toothpaste review

This product was great! It definately helped whiten my teeth, but four shades whiter in four weeks? Im not so sure, maybe with continued use. In the media there has been some talk about how some companies have been putting high levels of flouride in toothpastes (to whiten teeth), these high levels can actually kill bacteria in your mouth, even the good ones, so it is always best to be cautious when buying a whitening toothpaste. This brand, im happy to say has safe floride levels.

I'm very skeptical about products claiming to whiten, often a lot of hype with no results! I was eager to see if Colgate could deliver what it promises. I have some discolouration of my teeth, particularly the bottom ones. I used the toothpaste daily for over a month and I have noticed some lightening of those teeth, not so much the top. I didn't enjoy the taste (was slightly chemical tasting) but the feeling after brushing was fresh! I would buy again!

I found as long as I used it as recommended it worked at whitening my teeth. They didnt go as white as I'd like, but there was a difference. Also the taste wasnt affected and left you feeling fresh :)

I prefer the extreme whitening toothpaste by colgate. This one has a strong taste, i didnt see results that i expected and i brushed them more often while trialling this toothpaste. For the price it wasnt as good for me as other people had said. I wont be buying it again.

This is a good product. I have stubborn stains from coffee, so I have been using this product experimenting for a month now to see if it does what it says, with continuos use brushing twice a day every day the results are brilliant. And I love how affordable it is and the fact that you can buy it at the supermarket alongside with your groceries. :)

Ok so I got recommended this by a friend and have been trying it now for about 5 1/2 weeks I am noticing a slight difference in my teeth now, so the 4 week part I guess depends on each individual case. Also it doe's have a strong taste but I quite enjoy that, it doe's tingle a little bit.

I have been using this toothpaste for several months now – I think I have noticed my teeth being slightly whiter but not dramatically. I have however tried the new pen and have noticed a difference with that. I will keep using it because I’d rather use a tooth paste that slightly whitens as opposed to not at all. It does the job and just takes like your typical minty toothpaste!

Of all the things I could have inherited from my mother bad teeth would have been the last on the list! Add to the genetics the fact I smoke and drink black tea and white teeth is something that I do not have :( I have tried whitening toothpastes in the past with little to no success so was only slightly optimistic that this would live up to its claims. I like the way the tube stands up on the bench and the lid is easy to open yet stays put. The paste itself id rather thick but you don't have to use a whole lot to clean your whole mouth. The taste is pleasant unlike other whitening toothpastes I have used. My teeth felt clean after use and the toothpaste made my breath smell nice and minty for a while after brushing. I followed the instructions and used twice a day for four weeks and found that there was a slight whitening in colour. For the price this is worth a shot for people with moderately discoloured teeth

At first I wasn't a big fan of this toothpaste at all. It is pretty expensive and even after 4 weeks of use my husband and I both thought there was no difference to the colour of our teeth. We did however keep using it, and another 3 weeks or so later we met someone we hadn't seen for a while and they immediately noticed our whiter teeth even though they had no idea that we had been trying to make them whiter. I guess if you look at your teeth every day you might miss the gradual change in colour that can be achieved with this toothpaste as the change is very slow. I would definitely use it again, the only downside is the price.

Bought this on special (and unlikely to pay full price for it) as was quite costly compared with others on the market. Thought it was ok but unsure as to if there was a massive difference in my teeth. The taste was different to most toothpastes as was the texture. I liked both. However, I think if you are really looking for whiter teeth then seeing your dentists is probably best.
