This floss is anything but basic. Made from bamboo fiber, it's coated in activated charcoal, as well as coconut oil and essential oils (myrrh, manuka, clove, peppermint and cinnamon).
The bristles on this toothbrush are made with Binchotan activated charcoal, hence their black shade. The bristles are super-soft and gentle, so they clean teeth without being abrasive.
Activated charcoal isn't going to magically give you Hollywood-level pearly whites. In fact, "there is no miracle way to quickly whiten your teeth at home with a DIY method," says Gelfand. But there are some easy steps you can take at home to keep your smile looking its best. Brush twice a day to prevent surface stains from developing, floss once a day, curb your intake of foods and drinks that are majorly staining (we're looking at you coffee!) and absolutely no smoking, says Charng.
