Thai cosmetics and medicine are widely known outside the country, so many tourists bring products from these industries as gifts to loved ones. And the most enterprising travelers even set up their own business reselling Thai products. And one of the popular gifts/products is toothpaste from Thailand, which has healing properties and a whitening effect. But the range of these products is so wide that it’s difficult to make a choice right away. Therefore, we are devoting a separate article to this topic. In this article we will tell you what Thai toothpaste is and what the features of the product’s composition are, and we will also make a short review of popular and highly established brands. So let's get started!
General features of Thai whitening toothpastes
For your information! To a Russian person, Thai toothpaste will be a novelty, since it is very different from those that we are used to seeing on store shelves.
- Package . Like ours, it is packaged in a box, but the box itself is different in shape. The whitening miracle is placed not in an ordinary tube, but in a plastic jar, shaped like a washer and approximately the same size as it. But some manufacturers still package their product in a classic tube.
- Consistency . The Thai preparation has a denser and thicker consistency. The substance resembles a slightly wet powder rather than a viscous liquid.
- Mode of application . It's a little different from classic teeth brushing.
- Compound . According to Thai manufacturers on the packaging, it is completely natural .
- Specificity . Due to the previous subparagraph, the product has a very unusual color, smell and taste .
Twin Lotus: herbal paste
Dentists paid special attention to this paste. After all, this composition has a number of advantages:
- Thai Twin Lotus toothpaste is an excellent tool for the prevention of various periodontal diseases.
- This composition has antiseptic and antiviral effects.
- This Thai whitening toothpaste can eliminate unpleasant odor, including after smoking and drinking alcohol.
- Removes not only plaque, but also stone.
- Perfectly freshens breath. The feeling of cleanliness lasts throughout the day.
- Eliminates dry mouth and bleeding gums.
- Protects gums and teeth from the harmful effects of the environment and cold.
- Toothpaste fortifies teeth and soft tissues.
It is worth noting that Twin Lotus has been certified in Russia. This paste has a more pleasant taste and is much gentler than the previous one.
Advantages of pasta
It is worth noting! Puck-shaped jars quickly found their buyer in Russia and not just like that, but because they have a number of advantages:
- bleaching. We have all encountered situations where a product purchased at the supermarket labeled “whitening” did not help. In the case of a product from Thailand, the effect will be noticeable. You shouldn’t expect a dazzling smile after the first cleaning, but after about two weeks you will see results;
- long lasting freshness . After using the product, the cleansing of the oral cavity becomes noticeable and long-lasting, so much so that even sinful drivers are sometimes saved by brushing their teeth with Thai paste;
- quick result . Pleasant and fresh breath appears immediately after several cleanings, the whitening effect occurs a little later. Such short terms are guaranteed only by a product from Thailand;
- recovery. The cleanser saturates teeth with minerals and trace elements;
- naturalness. Unlike conventional products, the product from Thailand does not have a chemically aggressive effect on the oral cavity;
- price. In Russia you can purchase goods in the range from 100 to 500 rubles;
- efficiency. A very small amount of cleaning agent is required for single use. In this case, the foam and aroma will be abundant immediately after the start of hygiene. And one jar will last for at least six months;
- disinfection . Most whitening products from Thailand contain cloves. It has a powerful antimicrobial effect;
- range . Thailand is famous for many things, including the abundance of fruits and plants that are exotic to us, the flavors of which can be tasted in a wide variety of pastes from a considerable number of manufacturers. There are also herbal and black varieties.
Fans of tooth powders will also appreciate this whitening product from Thailand.
Terms of use
Dentists do not recommend cleaning your teeth with Thai products more than once a week. Even people with healthy teeth and strong enamel can get the disease if they use aggressive abrasives every day.
People with sensitive teeth should not use Thai toothpastes.
How to use paste in tubes? To do this, squeeze a small amount (about the size of a pea) onto the brush and clean your mouth as usual. The bristles of the brush should be soft; under no circumstances use hard fibers.
How to use powder in jars? To do this, you should use a special spatula, which is included with the jar. Do not pick up the product with a toothbrush, as at this moment the contents of the jar become infected with bacteria. Since jar products are thick, a minimal portion is enough for a single use - no more than a match head. You should use cupping products very rarely, alternating between cleaning your teeth with regular toothpastes.
The brush must be dry when applying paste. You can moisturize it only while brushing your teeth. Also follow the rule for storing the mass in jars - do not allow moisture to enter. The jar should be tightly closed, and the mass should be collected with a dry spatula.
Flaws
Keep in mind! The product also has a downside.
- Reliability of information. It is not known for certain how true and complete the information is, provided on the product packaging. The following points make you think:
- If the composition is natural, then why doesn’t anything happen to the paste after several months of use? It does not deteriorate, does not change smell or color. And this despite the fact that it is traditionally stored in the bathroom, where there is high humidity and temperature;
- not a single natural component can cause excessive foaming, which occurs when the product comes into contact with water; only synthetic materials can achieve this;
- Even the average person knows that a product made from high-quality and natural raw materials cannot be cheap, and Thai toothpastes are just like that.
- Health risk. If used incorrectly or frequently, it can damage tooth enamel or cause inflammation of the gums. The whitening effect occurs due to mechanical action on the enamel. Therefore, it is necessary to adhere to some rules when using Thai paste.
- Unpleasant sensations during hygiene. Not all users like the not very pleasant taste and smell of the product . Russian residents are spoiled by the good parameters of domestic toothpastes.
- Inconvenient to use. Still, it’s not for nothing that over time humanity has switched to making toothpastes in tubes. This is the best option, while the others are much inferior in dexterity of use.
Important! In addition to the above, some lovers of Thai paste note that there is a need for longer rinsing of the mouth, since a lot of foam is really formed during cleaning.
Also, the packaging itself is inconvenient to store, since the paste also comes with a special spatula; you have to allocate a separate shelf for them, otherwise there is a risk of losing the device or dropping everything on the floor.
Types of toothpastes in Thailand
Conventionally, all Thai pastes can be divided into a couple of main classifications. So, according to the method of storage, two types of cleaning products are distinguished:
- Paste in tubes is a typical type of packaging for Western consumers. The product is quite thick in consistency, like all gel pastes from popular European brands.
- Paste in jars - and this toothpaste sets Thailand apart from most countries in the world. So-called “dry” Thai pastes have a slightly oily consistency. Such products require special handling, but we will tell you how to use toothpaste from Thailand a little later.
And according to the effect they have on oral health, Thai tooth powders and pastes are divided into the following categories:
- Herbal composition - the emphasis is on the effects of tropical plant extracts. Such pastes are used to relieve inflammation and restore normal tissue function. Herbal toothpaste from Thailand will help eliminate bleeding gums, eliminate tartar, improve soft tissues and get rid of plaque on tooth enamel. In addition, some products have an antiviral effect: in this case, the toothpaste also fights inflammation of the mucous membrane and larynx.
- Whitening components effectively and quickly fight plaque, cleaning and polishing tooth enamel to an almost snow-white color. There are products of varying strengths of effectiveness, but in any case the instructions for use must be strictly followed, otherwise damage to health may be caused.
- Coal-based products are the so-called black toothpaste from Thailand. The color of the product is determined by the main components of the recipe: bamboo charcoal, mangosteen bark or crushed cuttlefish bones. The compositions are also supplemented with essential oils, extracts and flavoring additives. The main purpose of such products is to care for soft tissues and prevent the development of inflammatory processes.
These are the features that characterize the production of toothpastes and powders in Thailand. To get an idea of the local market, we will briefly describe popular Thai brands of toothpaste, but first we will study the features of using cleaning products.
Contraindications
In order not to risk your own health, you should familiarize yourself with the contraindications in advance.
- Allergy to components in the paste. People prone to allergic reactions should use this product with caution. Especially if the composition contains a fruit or plant to which a reaction has already been identified.
- Increased sensitivity of teeth. Since the paste contains abrasive substances that are used for whitening, this product is not suitable for people with thin and sensitive enamel.
- The presence of ulcers, stomatitis and other open wounds in the oral cavity. Since the Thai product is highly concentrated, it can have not only a disinfecting, but also an aggressive effect on wounds.
Note! If you experience any discomfort while using whitening paste from Thailand, it is better to stop using it so as not to cause the risk of damage to the oral cavity.
Herbal
Photo: Baan Somjeed toothpaste from Thailand
In Thailand, there are many medicinal plants that cannot be found here, which have a healing effect on human gum tissue. For example, guava, mangosteen peel, SE tree powder . The Thais have learned to use them in the production of their medicinal pastes, and today they successfully offer them on the market.
Such cleaning compositions for the oral cavity have a healing effect on sore gums, relieve inflammation, actively fight the growth of bacteria, stop bleeding, and nourish tissues with vitamins and strengthening substances.
Their components have a gentler effect on tooth enamel, so you should not expect a special whitening effect after their use. Among the large number of options, we will focus on those that our compatriots liked most:
- Abhai herb . The paste has an unusual dark color due to the presence of plant components in it. The specific taste and smell of this paste more than pays for itself with its disinfecting properties. It copes well with many gum diseases and has a beneficial effect on their overall condition.
- Baan Somjeed . This paste can be used not only for the prevention of diseases and treatment of gum diseases, but as a local anesthetic. The components included in its composition can relieve toothache. Of course, this is not a solution to the problem, and you will still have to treat your bad teeth, but it is quite possible to improve your condition for a while.
- Twin Lotus Herbal Toothpaste original . This paste has passed the necessary laboratory tests and received a quality certificate in our country. It is recommended to be used for the prevention and treatment of periodontal disease, bleeding gums, to combat bacterial plaque, as well as some viruses.
- Borneol . This product contains components used in Thai medicine to treat many diseases. With its constant use, you can get rid of some types of ulcers and wounds in the mouth, and even heal a sore throat.
General rules of use
As previously noted, the Thai product is highly concentrated and therefore requires careful dosing .
This product does not like moisture, so it should not get into the jar under any circumstances. It follows that contact of the toothbrush with the container containing the toothpaste is excluded.
The product must be scooped up with a special spatula included in the kit, then it is applied to a toothbrush .
The spatula should be immediately rinsed and wiped dry, and the jar with the product should be closed to prevent splashes from getting into it. Brushing your teeth is recommended with a soft-bristled brush .
Stay up to date! The duration of the procedure does not differ from the usual one. After completing hygiene, you should rinse your mouth well.
Despite the instructions, many users, in order to save time, prefer to immediately dip the brush into a jar of bleach. There is no need to do this for several reasons:
- when the brush comes into contact with the paste, bacteria are transferred to the jar with the contents, even if this manipulation is performed with a dry brush;
- the dosing rule is violated, since the product is not always visible on the bristles, it seems that it is not there. Therefore, a person repeats the scooping movements over and over again, thereby increasing the amount of product used beyond the prescribed amount.
The frequency of use of this paste does not coincide with the classic one.
Due to its rich natural composition, you should not use it every day. For a positive effect, it is enough to do this once every three days .
For your information! If urgent whitening is necessary, then you need to replace one tooth brushing per day using a Thai preparation, and leave the other as usual.
When the result is achieved, you should return to the recommended regimen.
It is imperative to monitor the body's reaction , since this is an Asian product, any of its contents may be unusual for a European person and cause a rash, headache, irritation in the mouth, and the like.
Criticism of Thai pastas
It would be unfair to remain silent about the shortcomings of Thai pastes. And, oddly enough, the composition of the products is the first to be criticized. The fact is that natural substances that have not undergone special treatment have a great power that has a destructive effect on tooth enamel. As a result, it turns out that in order to achieve an aesthetic effect, the health of the teeth and oral cavity deteriorates.
But we also rightly note that such negative consequences are possible only due to improper use of teeth cleaning products. Each package of a quality product contains detailed instructions that the consumer must follow when using toothpastes from Thailand. But we will return to this moment a little later.
Another reproach is related to the fact that Thai manufacturers do not indicate all components on the label; in particular, the content of artificial substances is kept silent. It turns out that the consumer does not know the whole truth about how and what tooth powder from Thailand is made of. In addition, even in the fully indicated composition there are ingredients whose effectiveness has not been researched and scientifically proven. Here, as they say, each buyer uses the product at his own peril and risk. If you doubt that the toothpaste you purchased is right for you, or if you feel negative changes in your mouth, be sure to stop using it and consult your dentist.
List of popular means
Among the large list of Thai pastes, the following are distinguished:
- 5 star . Available in puck-shaped packaging. Created on the basis of essential oils of cloves, camphor, menthol and borneol. Whitens teeth well, removes plaque and stains. It has a concentrated composition, so it must be used in accordance with the point described above. Available in various flavors.

Whitening

Whitening compounds presented by Thai manufacturers are famous for their ability to perfectly and quickly remove tartar. It has been noticed that after their use, much less plaque forms on the enamel, and the breath remains fresh for the whole day.
These products contain herbal components, such as plants of the aster family, lavender, cloves, Patchouli oil, camphor bark oil , etc., thanks to which the desired effect is achieved.
Those who have used Thai whitening paste assure that the annual preventive examination at the dentist for them ends solely with an examination - their teeth do not even need to be cleaned.
Externally, the packaging with this exotic teeth cleaning product does not look quite familiar. And the paste itself has an unusual color, taste and smell. Round jars with a solid composition of brown, beige or gray color, more reminiscent of some kind of cream, are most often found in Thai pharmacies.
We invite you to read reviews of the Russian Rox Bionics whitening toothpaste and decide whether it’s worth purchasing.
And in this article you will find approximate prices of its foreign competitor Sensodyne.
Here: https://www.vash-dentist.ru/lechenie/desnyi/sposobyi-v-domashnih-usloviyah.html - they will tell you about treating gums at home for inflammation.
Along with them, tubes with a gel-based cleaning composition that have the same properties, which are more familiar to European consumers, are also sold.
Let's take a closer look at the more popular pastas among our tourists:
- Herbal Clove Toothpaste. It perfectly fights darkening of the enamel caused by drinking coffee, tea and smoking, disinfects, actively resists the growth of bacteria in the oral cavity, and freshens breath. With this composition, teeth lighten to their natural shade after just 2 weeks of use. Very economical - one procedure requires an amount of product equal in volume to the size of a match head.
- Punchalee .
This paste has a Russian quality certificate and is already freely sold in our country. In addition to plant components, it contains soda and calcium. It not only has a pronounced whitening property, but also strengthens tooth enamel and nourishes gum tissue. The disadvantages of this product include a pungent odor and a specific taste that you need to get used to. But after using it, only a pleasant feeling of freshness and no plaque remains in the mouth. Consumption is also very economical; one package will last for several months. - Wangrom . This paste differs from the previous ones in its milder taste and pleasant smell. At the same time, its composition does not differ much from its analogues, and it copes with cleaning teeth and maintaining their health no worse.
- Herbal Prime Perfect . Its consistency is more like a cleaning powder, which also does an excellent job of protecting the oral cavity from bacteria and tooth enamel from yellow plaque.
- Twin Lotus Fresh Cool . This paste is sold in tubes and seems to be more hygienic to use. Its active ingredients work very carefully, so even people with sensitive teeth can use it.
You can use whitening compounds from Thailand on a daily basis, twice a day. But if you are afraid that their components will have too aggressive an effect on the enamel, using them several times a week will be quite sufficient.
Keep in mind that if your teeth are naturally yellowish or grayish, no toothpaste can help you turn them into a snow-white smile.
Reviews
Below are some customer reviews. If you have something to say, leave your feedback in the comments below the article, it will be useful to our readers.
Marina, 29 years old, Barnaul.
A friend brought me Thai pasta from vacation. At first I didn’t like it and even felt disgusted, because it looked strangely gray in color, didn’t smell like mint, and tasted salty. But then I read the instructions, searched for information on the Internet and got a taste for it. Now I use it a couple of times a week and have forgotten about the coffee residue.
Ivan, 20 years old, Moscow.
I was on vacation with my parents in Thailand and found round toothpaste in a souvenir shop. I love this kind of stuff, so I decided to try it. After a week, my teeth became very sensitive. I couldn’t eat sweets, my teeth were cramping. My parents began to swear that I kept squirming while eating, so I had to throw it out and switch to regular pasta. Everything is over.
Kristina, 40 years old, Saratov.
My friends praised the whitening paste, so I decided to try it and ordered it online. I read the reviews in advance and chose it. When I opened the jar, I thought it didn’t stink as much as some people wrote. But my breath is fresh all day, even the smell of garlic was drowned out with this paste.
How to use it correctly?
Toothpastes from Thailand are usually concentrated. They must be used in very measured doses so as not to harm the enamel. If we are talking about formulations in round jars, then in order to get the right amount of product onto a toothbrush, you just need to lightly brush it over the surface of the product and use it as intended without excessive pressure.
For whitening toothpastes, it is even recommended to use soft toothbrushes. This way you can preserve your dental health and use such a valuable product economically.

For ease of use, various additional accessories are offered, such as a special spatula for scooping out pasta. With its help, you will always collect exactly as much material as you need.
It is important to store the paste in a place inaccessible to moisture, and when using it, you must ensure that no water gets into the jar. The brush is also used dry, and only at the moment of cleaning should the paste come into contact with the liquid.
Mode of application
Before use, you must open the sealed jar and remove the protective film. It is easy to brush over the surface of the paste with a toothbrush; you can also use a special device - a spatula. The packaging of the product is intended for individual use.
The paste foams well . This is an economical product with minimal consumption. A small amount of the substance is enough to get a lot of foam. The natural oral care product is used very sparingly. One package of toothpaste will last about 8 months for one person. Use as regular paste. After brushing your teeth, you must close the jar tightly and avoid getting water inside. Use to brush your teeth twice a day, morning and evening. Regular use of the paste can significantly reduce the need for trips to the dentist.
Beneficial features
“Green Herbs” products for snow-white teeth have an effective whitening effect, remove stone, and neutralize plaque from tobacco, tea, coffee, and wine. Natural paste has the following effects on teeth and oral cavity:
- whitens efficiently and safely;
- refreshes, has a disinfecting effect;
- eliminates toothache;
- qualitatively removes plaque, tartar, and stubborn dental stains;
- reduces the level of tooth sensitivity;
- reduces inflammation of the gums;
- prevents the development of caries and other dental diseases.
The effect of using toothpaste is noticeable after just a few weeks of regular use - the teeth become clean, the gums are healthy, the smile becomes radiant and clean.
special instructions
There are several points that are important to consider when purchasing Thai toothpaste.
First of all, this is the quality of abrasive materials. They are responsible for removing plaque. Silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, and aluminum oxide are usually used as abrasives. They are contained in clay, which is found everywhere. However, this is not a reason to use it instead of pasta. Before entering the finished product, the crystals undergo so-called cutting. Such a complex process must be performed on high-quality equipment.
The composition of Thai pastes includes ordinary alumina, saturated with a large number of raw crystals. For this reason, during hygiene procedures it is recommended to use soft brushes and brush your teeth with little force. It is not surprising that the plaque disappears, and the teeth themselves become smooth. Along with food debris, the enamel is also erased. As a result, teeth become sensitive to external irritants.
The presence of exclusively plant components in the paste requires the use of preservatives, thickeners and stabilizers. Therefore, it is not a 100% natural product. The use of natural ingredients is impossible without chemistry.
Sellers are trying to misinform consumers by talking about the super-effectiveness of the paste and its natural composition. At the same time, they are silent about possible side effects. Such products usually contain aromatic oils that can cause allergies.
On the other hand, sellers can scare consumers by talking about the unsafety of traditional hygiene products, citing a large number of chemical components. However, they cannot be absorbed into the blood through the oral mucosa. Few people know about this. Traditional pastes “work” only superficially, without having a negative impact on human health.

How interesting! I’ve never even heard of such pastes))) I was captivated by the fact that people say that an examination at the dentist remains only an examination after using them. I was especially interested in a paste that removes tartar, unfortunately I have such a problem on my teeth ((I’ll search on the Internet, I hope that I’ll find exactly the one described in the article.

I had the opportunity to live in Thailand for several months. And I tried many Thai remedies, including for teeth. To be honest, the effect they produce is simply amazing. Not a single product, even the most expensive one sold in Russia, can compare with Thai pastes.
And the price of these overseas drugs used to be quite low, before the fall of the ruble. Now these pastes will cost 40% more, plus the cost of delivery from Thailand.

Good afternoon The other day I decided to try for myself the effectiveness of a whitening paste: it is very economical, just lower the tips of the bristles of the toothbrush and it will foam for a long time, the only thing it has is some kind of slightly burning effect (the tongue then stings for a long time) - isn’t this harmful to the mucous membrane? And the effect on the teeth is already visible: they begin to turn white from the ends. The only thing I read is that the natural yellowish color of the enamel cannot be whitened with anything, so I want to see with a personal example: if the tips of the teeth are already white, it means that everything will turn white) The main thing is to hope

I’ve been using Thai toothpaste for 2 years now and I don’t even plan to go back to the toothpastes sold here!!! Previously they brought it from Thailand, but now (due to the crisis) I found it in an online store! In my city, my order was delivered within a day and I was very pleased with the price! Stocked up for use!!!))))) I recommend it to everyone!!! Indeed, the taste of the paste is very different from the sweetish menthol we are used to, but personally, I am completely delighted with the paste! Just brush the day, the second, and you will also become a fan of Thai toothpaste!!!!!!

I tried Thai pastes on myself. I am a person who has been smoking for many years, my teeth are yellowish. The effect of the paste became noticeable already after the 2nd use. And after a while they became snow-white. And the feeling in the mouth after brushing is indescribable, despite the aftertaste of the pastes. When I brushed my teeth with Thai paste for the first time, the first thing I said when I came out of the bathroom was “as if I had just left the dentist”))))) Before using Thai toothpastes, I used Rocs toothpastes, but they never had such an effect.

Hi all! And I want to leave my review about the wonderful paste☺ a year ago, I whitened my teeth at the dentist, walked with a snow-white smile, but as they say, you quickly get used to good things, after eight months, taking into account the fact that I don’t drink coffee, black tea, I smoke, my teeth began to lose the whiteness to which I was accustomed and I began to notice a difference, I wanted to make a mouth guard for home whitening, and then, as if in a fairy tale, at the behest of a pike, I met one girl, they started talking, and I noticed her teeth, they were so snow-white , I asked, they say she whitened, the answer amazed me when she said no, I just brush with toothpaste, I can say I didn’t even believe it, she said show me what kind of toothpaste, and we weren’t too lazy to go home, it was that beauty in a pink package with a beautiful smile, that same evening I found the Sia Market website on the Internet for direct delivery from Thailand and ordered without hesitation, it cost 88 rubles. The order arrived a month later, but the result was not long in coming, after a week I noticed that they had turned white, I was scratched by the same tooth for half a year, after the second cleaning I forgot what it was, if you brush your teeth in the morning, then the next morning, your teeth are still plaque-free, smooth and shiny, as if your dentist polished them. In general, I’m in delighted with Thai toothpaste)))))
Product Features
The main feature of all toothpastes produced in Thailand is their high efficiency. Compared to domestic analogues, they have the following advantages:
- The toothpaste contains exclusively natural ingredients. The pronounced anti-inflammatory effect declared by the manufacturer is achieved through the use of oils and plant extracts with a bactericidal effect. As a rule, these are mint and cloves. Exotic plants are also used: guava, miswaka, clinacanthus and others.
- Good abrasive force. The toothpaste contains abrasive substances that promote high-quality removal of plaque of natural origin (aluminum oxide, bamboo charcoal, soda).
- Use of aromatic additives. Almost every product has an exotic taste and smell.
- Wide variety of species. There are many similar products on the market, each of which is positioned to solve specific oral problems. Therefore, any consumer can choose a paste that meets their individual needs.
- Low cost. Due to their low price, the popularity of Thai toothpastes is increasing every year.
Oral care products from Thailand are fundamentally different from domestic products. They have a specific consistency, smell and special taste characteristics.
approximate cost
To purchase toothpaste from Thailand, you do not have to go to this exotic country. Today, such products can be bought in pharmacies or specialized retail chains, online stores.
The cost of the product will be slightly higher when compared with Thai prices. For example, Punchalee whitening paste will cost 250 rubles, and for the herbal composition Abhai herb you will have to pay a little more than 100 rubles. The final price may vary depending on the region. As a rule, it is much more profitable to buy Thai toothpastes in online stores, according to people’s reviews.
Consumer Opinions
Most consumers who have once tried black, herbal or pink Thai toothpaste do not want to return to traditional hygiene products. However, there are also conflicting opinions. Here are just a few of them:
- The product has a specific taste and smell. Some consumers quickly get used to them, others simply refuse to use them. The taste will definitely be appreciated by those who are still nostalgic for Soviet tooth powder.
- The manufacturer claims that the enamel paste is soft and non-traumatic. However, they are contraindicated for people with severe caries. It is better to try products with chamomile or guava extract. Thai toothpaste with cloves or borneol is suitable if there are no inflammatory problems.
- All products in round packaging have a whitening effect. However, it is not recommended to brush your teeth with them in the morning and evening; it is better to alternate with regular toothpastes. Also, do not rely on an instant whitening effect. Such products are really good at removing plaque, but they are not able to restore naturally yellowish enamel.
- Round packaging is only convenient if you take it on a trip. It is difficult to get paste onto a dry brush. If you wet it, water gets into the product, making it gooey and creamy. A special spatula often comes with the jar. However, reviews about it are very contradictory. Some consumers find it inconvenient, while others find it extremely useful.
- The cost of Thai paste is comparable to the usual mid-price products. Therefore, it is not worth purchasing a foreign product solely to save the budget.
Of course, you cannot be guided solely by consumer reviews when choosing a paste. Today, everyone can purchase a Thai product, evaluate its advantages and disadvantages, and only after that make their choice.
