Does this product scrape the enamel off teeth? Is is gritty or abrasive?

No it doesn't scratch the enamel. It has a little grit, no much. By far the best tooth past I have ever used

Not at all. In fact, I would say it is better than regular toothpastes as far as protecting enamel since it doesn't have glycerin (which prevents your teeth from remineralizing.

If you search reviews, on 25 Dec 14 ListedMIA made a comment that the product did scrape off part of her crowns.

It's a cream. No abrasive grit in it. I can't speak of the chemical reaction though. I have used it on brass, copper, and steel so far with no problems. Even polished a shell casing from a 5-inch gun round to a high shine.

I would think water is fine. The idea is removing grit, not pasting it in. Water also cools down the process.

Not grainy or gritty at all. It flows like fingernail polish. Just doesn't glow, in my experience!

Again, do not brush it on and I do not use mouthguards for the remineralization get. Just put a little on the sore areas (see below) then let it sit for a minute or two as it dissolves in saliva then either swallow or spit....I spit it out, of course, and it is not at all unpleasant--very minty like toothpaste. If you want to let it stay 10 minutes, for example, apply and try not to swallow! Only a few seconds are needed for relief of pain so just spit it out after a minute or two. Reapply later if needed--but I have never needed to.....

I don't know what the "grit' is made of - the tube states crystals - but it is a fine grit and the liquid warms when applied to the face. Nicely polishes the face.

Polisher works much better as it helps coat teeth evenly and allows it to be worked into the enamel more effectively...plus it gives you the bonus shine. I purchased a battery operated polisher from Amazon for $7-8. Works great!

I tried it in a flan (which is a custard). I thought it gave it a gritty texture. I wouldn't use it again. I have'nt tried it in anything else.

Yes...I told my dentist about Redmond clay toothpaste. He likened it to silica they use in standard. He had to agree it was working for me because my teeth are whiter and less cavities. Clay is wonderful and Redmond company is amazing. Clay can be drying so I switch it up with diff types of homemade toothpastes.

Please disregard my earlier response. As far as I can tell Nev 'R Dull uses chemicals, not abrasives. I use it on cymbals and chrome all of the time and I've yet to see any scratching like you can see with even 0000 steel wool. . In the Navy they use it for all "bright work" brass and the like. It's great stuff but use it in a well ventilated area.

I believe it has enamel protection but not 100% sure, but it is the same exact whitener my dentist sells to me and it DEFINITELY has sensitivity protection, I believe the most you can get. I've used a lot of these whiteners, and I like this the best because of that.

It is mildly abrasive. If the surface you are polishing has a top coat, it will dull it. If the surface is a solid material such as copper, silver, or stainless steel, it will remove tarnish and give it a shine. It's the best stuff I've used but a person should be mindful regarding what they are using it on.

I have used it for a year now and it has not stained my teeth. (I know swimmers have problems with mineral buildup on their teeth from chlorine in the pool but it is not a stain but a mineral that can easily be scraped off with a cleaning tool or the hygienist.) I only us it once a day for a minute.

It's gritty... It'll rip your gums appart if you brush 'aggressively' like I do. I use it every other day or so. If it weren't for me brushing too hard, it may be used every day. Test the waters and use at your own discretion and you should be ok.
