    It's all a bit pointless, as you're on the fast track to loosing your teeth.

    You can use the 'smoker's toothpastes' if you really want to, but they will wear away your teeth if you're lucky enough to have any beyond 50.

    I'd just save up for a decent set of dentures.

    It's much easier to get stains off them anyway.
    How to find a dentist.
    1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
    2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
    3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
    4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.

    I use Eucryl its in a small round plastic container and is a powder,and costs under a pound. It will remove every stain on your teeth , then just use it when they are discoloured and use a normal toothpaste for every day.

    This is why I'm always harping on about buying whitening products off Ebay.

    These sorts of fakes are not uncommon.

    Order of events: Banks lose our money -> get bailed out -> were inflating GBP to cover it -> now taxing us -> next will grab your funds direct -> things get really desperate to balance the books. What should have happened?: banks go bust and we lost our money much quicker

    The cheap ASDA one for me (blue stripes) and I've found it's really good. OH insists on buying more expensive brands but he goes into HomeBargains for his - so gets them cheaper than in the supermarkets.

    Neither of us smokes - but he likes the smokers stuff - has a thing about his 'pearly whites'!

    Lidl do a herb one in a white/green tube. It is the best toothpaste I have tasted. Don't be put off by the word herb as it only means mint etc.

    Toothpaste is one thing I won't compromise on. I buy mine in the health food shops because I prefer to buy the non-fluoridated type.
