Abstract
Smoking is notably one of the most serious factors causing various periodontal problems, including bacteria in plaque build up and yellow teeth. Based on our study revealed that an activated charcoal from palm shells has been proven as a teeth whitening with an absorption ability of two times higher than other commercially active charcoals. This study aims to determine four formulas of toothpaste which are useful as teeth whitening. The results showed that all of the four formulas were proven effective as teeth whitening with the VITAPAN level of C1 (greyish shades) - all of which are similar to the positive control. The second formula was verified as the best physical property compared with the other formulas, with the quality standard at the concentration of carbomer 940 of 1% and tween 80 of 1.5%.
