Brushing Teeth with Milton
I'm thinking about whitening my teeth by brushing them with Milton (as it appears safer than Bleach), I've got no intention of swallowing the stuff but I was wondering if it is safe to do this or how dangerous it is???
any sharing of knowledge on this would be greatly appreciated.

Why on earth would you use Milton to whiten your teeth. Here is some info about Milton. It's not designed as a teeth whitening agent and nor is bleach.

I thought this was about a new comedy interview show on TV hosted by Milton Jones.

I was under the impression that people have previously used it to do false teeth?

That's rank. The smell alone makes me gag. Repurposing of chemical products is strongly unadvisable.

You mentioned not swallowing it so where do the dentures come in? |

From the Milton website Quote:
What is Milton Sterilising Fluid made of? In other words it is bleach (dilute and with salt added)
Milton Fluid is made of an aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite and 16.5% sodium chloride. The Milton Fluid that is available to buy is a strength of 2% sodium hypochlorite. |

any sharing of knowledge on this would be greatly appreciated. ![]() And if you DO happen to have naturally white teeth that have become stained with coffee, red wine, whatever, there are many safe products on the market that will remove the stains. |

Can I just say, my dentist has just told me to clean my dentures with diluted Milton, so she is perfectly right in thinking some people use Milton.

![]() A) You take them out of your mouth first B) You rinse them before putting them back in. |

Some people recommend a bit of baking soda mixed with water or lemon juice to remove surface stains, but beware of damaging the enamel.

The only thing that really works is paying out proper money for proper whitening via your dentist. I used Opalescence and it cost a fortune but my teeth look amazing.

Milton is great for taking those stubborn brown stains out of mugs and cups
