I have been a smoker for the last few years and decided to quit, which I've since done. My husband mentioned that my teeth looks a bit dingy, as in sort of yellow; not very pleasant, so I bought this product on a whim. I've never used whitening strips, as they're just too pricy, but was suitable impressed with the whitening power of this toothpaste. Within three days I noticed a significant difference in the whiteness of my teeth. The toothpaste itself is quite strongly flavored and does a good job cleaning and freshening breath.
I think if you smoke, drink coffee, tea or red wine on a regular basis, this product will helps get rid of those stains. I was satisfied with this toothpaste, and will continue to use it.

Within 3 seconds on first use inside of my mouth began to tingle - cheeks, tongue, lips. When finished brushing inside of mouth was burning. Rinsed immediately. Have not used this product again. This happened 2.5 weeks ago and has not completely healed. First 1.5 weeks were extremely uncomfortable. Difficulty in eating, decreased saliva production, and burning pain.

    Comments about Colgate Optic White Anticavity Fluoride Toothpaste, Sparkling Mint, 5.5 oz:

    I use this daily and it does whiten just as well as strips. I smoke and drink coffee and whatnot and it keeps staining down quite a bit. It whitened so well by the end of the first week that I was a little embarassed at how stained my teeth had been. It doesn't whiten very well in between teeth however and the taste is a little odd at first. Not a whitener taste but much different than my old toothpaste.

    Comments about Colgate Optic White Anticavity Fluoride Toothpaste, Sparkling Mint, 5.5 oz:

    I was hoping this would replace my more pricey brand. I didnt notice any whitening. At all. I maintain my teeth with toothpaste and a mouthwash that are excellent whiteners, but hard on my tight budget. I really wanted this to work as well as my expensive toothpaste, but its not even close. I'll not repurchase.

          I used this product for a brief amount of time and I actually thought my teeth looked more YELLOW after I used it. Additionally it tastes bad and leaves my mouth feeling less clean than before brushing my teeth.

          If you want a toothpaste that whitens, tastes good, and leaves your mouth feeling clean, go with Crest 3D White.

              It's just refreshing and seems to do a nice job of keeping teeth white ... after you've already done a little professional whitening or those crest white strips.

              Comments about Colgate Optic White Anticavity Fluoride Toothpaste, Sparkling Mint, 5.5 oz:

              I've used many whitening products over two decades at least, and have been loyal to another, more expensive drugstore brand that has always worked well for me. Looking to save a few dollars (this toothpaste is about half the cost) I decided to try it. Well, as far as being a regular ol toothpaste I didn't feel that I wasted my money. As a WHITENING toothpaste its a complete and utter failure. No whitening at all. I'll stick to my other brand.
