Dentist reviews
Nikita Vladimirovich, dentist: You can cope with plaque on enamel by using pastes that contain tensides. This component has a cleansing effect. The active substance is able to reach the most inaccessible places. It is tensides that provoke the dissolution of plaque and keep it in a liquid state until it is spat out when rinsing the mouth.
Miroslava, dentist: When choosing a paste for tartar removal, it is better to opt for a product containing calcium carbonate in the composition. The abrasive will remove dental plaque and eliminate bactericidal accumulations hidden from view. However, it is worth remembering that pastes can only remove those formations that have not reached crystallization. Otherwise, professional cleaning at the dentist's office will be required.
Radonta
The uniqueness of Radonta toothpastes is that they are produced taking into account the needs of morning and evening teeth brushing. This is perhaps the only pasta that is available in morning and evening versions. Radont contains extracts of medicinal Tibetan plants that help monitor the condition of the oral cavity, removing pathogenic bacteria and plaque and thereby protecting teeth and gums from negative influences. Morning paste "Radonta" has an abrasive structure, which helps to better cleanse teeth and gums of plaque, whitening them. Evening has a gel structure, it is more gentle on teeth and gums, soothing them. The special formula prevents the formation of plaque, has a mild analgesic effect, and strengthens the vascular system of the patient’s gums.
Comments
I read that hard plaque can be removed using traditional methods, for example, lemon and radish. What do you think?
Anna (02.12.2018 at 17:53) Reply to comment
- Dear Anna, we invite you to approach this issue intelligently. Lemon and radish are foods high in acids. Hard plaque is the deposition and mineralization of calcium salts. What needs to be done to the teeth so that such hard plaques dissolve by themselves and how long will it take to apply radish and lemon juice to them? This method, at best, will have absolutely no effect on the enamel; at worst, it will disrupt its composition and integrity, corrode, and scratch it. It will also burn the gums and cause an inflammatory process if it gets on the mucous membrane.

Products that should never be used -
Before writing this article, I carefully studied various sites that write on the topic of removing dental plaque at home. As a practicing dentist, I was somewhat shocked that such articles (by all indications) were written not just by “NON-dentists”, but by people who have absolutely nothing to do with medicine, and sometimes even lack common sense and have no idea , and what exactly do they advise.
I bring to your attention a couple of recipes that you can use to remove tartar at home. After the text of each recipe, you can read its analysis - both from the point of view of medical knowledge and a school chemistry course.
Recipe No. 1 –
“You need to make an elixir from grated black radish and lemon juice. This elixir should be consumed before bed, as well as moistened with a toothbrush and brushed your teeth.”
So, comments: the radish and lemon elixir contains nothing more than acid. Previously, in dentistry (when ultrasound was not yet used to remove dental plaque), in fact, before removing dental plaque with hand instruments, strong acids were sometimes used to slightly soften the tartar. Moreover, even after partial softening with acid, it will be impossible to remove tartar with a toothbrush or household tools.
The use of acid for removing tartar was abandoned about 40 years ago for the following reasons: 1) due to the low effectiveness of this method, 2) acid washes calcium from the surface layer of enamel, contributing to its abrasion and the development of increased sensitivity to thermal irritants.
Recipe No. 2 –
“Nut broth.
It is made by boiling 35 grams of walnut branch bark for 20 minutes in about one glass of water. Next, you need to dip your toothbrush in the broth and brush your teeth for 4-5 minutes, 3 times a day.” Comments: Try moistening your toothbrush with water and brushing your teeth with it. The effect will be exactly the same.
- Firstly, you will immediately feel how poorly your teeth are cleaned of plaque if you replace toothpaste with nut broth. Accordingly, this will lead to an increase in the amount of plaque on the teeth and accelerated formation of tartar.
- Secondly, hard dental deposits (tartar) are mineralized soft plaque.
Those. they are formed from soft microbial plaque, which was not cleaned from the teeth in time, and which was saturated with calcium and phosphorus salts contained in saliva. Thus, hard plaque is a very dense formation mineralized with calcium. From the chemistry course, you can remember that in order to dissolve calcium salts, you need a very strong acid, and not a decoction of walnut bark, which has no acidity. And as for the general use of acid to remove tartar, we have already talked about this above, i.e. this is not worth using.
Silver
Toothpaste with silver “Silver” not only protects teeth from the formation of plaque and tartar, but also helps protect the oral cavity from pathogenic bacteria. If you brush your teeth daily with Silver toothpaste, they become whiter and brighter, and bad breath disappears forever. It is especially effective and indicated for those who like to drink tea, coffee and other coloring drinks that leave unaesthetic stains on the surface of the enamel. The silver contained in the product helps fight pathogenic bacteria, aloe vera extract has soothing properties and helps relieve inflammation in the gums, mint gives a pleasant fresh taste and smell.
What is the secret of toothpaste
Toothpaste for removing stones on teeth and hard deposits must have a special composition. Namely, it should contain an increased concentration of abrasives. Usually on the packaging this parameter is marked with the letters RDA, and this abbreviation means titanium dioxide, calcium carbonate or silicon dioxide. The higher the indicator, the more effectively this product (at least that’s what the manufacturers claim) will clean the enamel. In addition, the composition will help fight enamel pigmentation, i.e. will give a brightening effect.
In pursuit of a beautiful smile, many people forget about safety rules and regulations. They use anti-plaque toothpaste uncontrollably. For example, they increase the number of cleansing procedures to 3 or more times a day. Or they use similar compositions for more than a month, on an ongoing basis. But this is absolutely forbidden. The enamel will not become whiter or cleaner, the hard stone will not dissolve, but you will damage the enamel, violate its integrity (microcracks will appear) and strength, making it sensitive and thin!
In fact, only ultrasound can help deal with such an unpleasant phenomenon as hard mineralized tartar. Toothpastes, no matter how high-quality they are, will only cope with soft deposits. But the miracles of advertising make people believe that miracle compounds today are capable of anything.
How to choose the right toothpaste?
“If the patient does not want to experience enamel abrasion at a very young age, then in principle I do not advise him to never use a paste with an abrasiveness index above 120 RDA. But if you really believe in a miracle and want to, then no more than twice a week maximum and no longer than a month as a preventive measure. For people with sensitive enamel, the threshold is generally 25 RDA. For children, there can be no talk of any abrasives at all; all this is very dangerous both for teeth and for health in general,” notes dental hygienist V.N. Kashaeva.
Well, the editors of the portal decided to consider the TOP best toothpastes for stones, which, according to user reviews and the opinion of dentists, cope with this task a little better than others.
