“I had gum disease and needed a deep cleaning… but after using TartarEnd®, my dentist said everything looks good. I might go back to a 6-month schedule instead of 3.”
– Nyea, TartarEnd® user
Most people use the same toothpaste they’ve always used – usually whatever brand claims to fight tartar, freshen breath, or whiten teeth. But what if the ingredients in their toothpaste isn’t actually solving their tartar buildup problem?
For users like Nyea, switching to TartarEnd® made all the difference -It removed her tartar, improving gum health, and she avoided painful and expensive dental work.
So what exactly makes it different?
What makes TartarEnd® different is that it doesn’t just try to prevent tartar buildup – it actually removes tartar above and below the gumline.
Other toothpastes in big print say they REMOVE TARTAR. But in fine print they say they try to remove plaque. They also say ”once plaque hardens into tartar, only a dental professional can remove it” with specialized metal tools.
TartarEnd® is the only toothpaste that removes hardened built-up tartar and softer plaque above and below the gum line. It’s patented formula combines dimethyl isosorbide (DMI) and chlorine dioxide ( sodium chlorite ) to soften and fragment tartar and plaque. The vibrating bristles of a recommended sonic toothbrush remove fragmented tartar and plaque from teeth and gum pockets at home.
What Traditional Tartar-Control Toothpastes Actually Do
Big-name toothpastes normally found in a grocery store (like Colgate, Crest, Sensodyne) typically include:
- Fluoride, to strengthen enamel
- Pyrophosphates, to slow down tartar formation
- Mild abrasives, to scrub off plaque and surface stains
- Antibacterial agents, to kill bacteria
While helpful for daily cleaning, these toothpaste can’t remove hardened tartar once it forms– especially below the gum line. Once tartar has formed, brushing harder or using more fluoride doesn’t help.
Many patients end up needing scraping, scaling, or deep cleaning every 3–6 months despite regular brushing at home.
What Makes TartarEnd® Different
TartarEnd® uses a formula, backed by US and foreign patents, research, American Chemical Society presentations, and dentist sworn testimony. Its core ingredients – Dimethyl Isosorbide (DMI) and chlorine dioxide – work in a fundamentally different way than any other toothpaste.
Here’s how:
- DMI softens the hardened plaque and tartar matrix by penetrating the “glue” holding it together
- Chlorine dioxide cleaves critical peptide bonds in this bacterial biofilm glue, further destabilizing the tartar and plaque structure
- With sonic brushing, the fragmented tartar is lifted away gently at home – no scraping needed
👉 This patented formulation is used by and reviewed by licensed dentist Dr. Christopher Tai, D.M.D. – and designed for real-world results.
