Black Charcoal Toothpaste
I can think of many uses for everyday charcoal. From art to making myself a burger on the grill, it is definitely useful.
However, when i first saw that Korea had Charcoal Toothpaste, i was a little taken a back.
Black in color, go figure, it uses the cleaning power and absorption of odor to help clean your mouth and “neutralize the poisons from the body”.
I guess someone figured if it is good enough to filter your water then it is good enough to clean your teeth.
Japan has had charcoal toothpaste since 2003 when Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals released Sumigaki.
Shortly followed by charcoal cotton swab…
this is actually a very good idea; is there an english site i could order this from? activated charcoal is very effective in absorbing/adsorbing undesirable compounds.
Charcoal works not because it cleans the plaque off your teeth, but because it just takes EVERYTHING off. Charcoal isn’t used for toothpaste anymore because it wears away the enamel of your teeth.
Yeah, my great grand parrents used to brush their teeth with charcoal.
And now everyone who uses that has lead poising some how…..becuase it was made in China
charcoal != lead
I can’t really tell if you are being sarcastic, I hope you are.
I think the comment was referring to all of the toys recently coming from Japan that have been contaminate with lead. I’m pretty sure he didn’t think charcoal = lead.
Actually the Lead Paint found on toys were from China, not Japan
Looser! Lots of merchandise made in China have been found to contain lead lately…read the news more!
And this has something to do with charcoal toothpaste how? Nevermind that charcoal doesn’t cause any form of lead poisoning for obvious reasons.
Thanks for citing those examples for us. Grow up and stop using such loaded generalisations.
Considering how the text on the packages correspond to Korean and Japanese, I sincerely doubt that.
that shits been around forever, I been using it since i was like 6 (I am Indian [Asian]). Tastes like utter crap at first, made me gag anyways - but after the first few timese you get used to it and it does a damn better job than any triclosan/fluoride toothpaste.
Yeah I guess your teeth must hurt from eating anything cold since you wore your enamel off.
Wonder if it’ll color my teeth black…
Not so wierd
Aborigines used it to clean their teeth for at least 22,000 years
When I used to do a lot of camping, I would chew some of the cold embers (charcoal) the next morning. It sort of had the consistency of croutons, so it would do a good job of scrubbing your teeth, plus it would help your breath. Its a pretty good trick provided you could be sure no one peed in the fire. Probably only useful for hardcore campers who don’t want to cary the extra three ounces for Banking powerd and a tooth brush.
I use homemade mix of black paste
I really like this product.. Any chance it will be coming to Canada?
Its common in indian villages … brushing with charcoal pwder!
Sri Lankans Used to brush their tooth with Charcoal from ancient times
My mother used to brush her teeth with Charcoal (Dust) and the was young.
As the charred part of food from the grill is not good for you, I can’t imagine that putting charcoal in your mouth (either as a dentifrice or as an abrasive) where some of it is invariably ingested, can be good for you.
No wonder little kids don’t brush their teeth.
look like something that came form jiffy lube.
ZOMGWTF!!!

Crest or Colgate? What if charcoal toothpaste is normal? Based on your comments you have little respect for cultures other than your own, even if they are similar.

Nice and weird
I wanna try it though.

You can pick this up at most Korean markets, if they don’t have it, they can likely order it. It takes a bit to get used to the taste but it work really great!
Lets give it a name
I say Global Carbon March
Inter our exhaust
I don’t see any mention on your web site of Pyrolysis or Agrichar . Do you have projects in the planning stage on the carbon sequestration front?
The more you learn about this ancient technique of soil restoration the more you’ll see how elegant this solution can be for carbon sequestration, for us all.
Imagine putting the carbon tax funds into the hands of millions of peasant farmers all around the world, building their soil and their net worth at the same time. Please search “AGRICHAR” “BIOCHAR” or
“TERRA PRETA
yes, a lot of Asian countries had been using charcoal to clean their teeth for many years when toothpaste wasn’t available
LOLS! I HAVE that toothpaste in my house right now.
My dad buys into all those weird toothpastes.
He also has one made from plants (it’s green and gross).
Personally, I like Crest. But wtv
Indians have used charred paddy husk for cleaning teeth since ages.
I’d rather use it in a form of dust but not toothpaste.
LOSERRRRRSS!!!!
Will charcoal make your teeth whiter or blacker
