AP 24 Whitening Fluoride Toothpaste (South Africa)

AP 24 Whitening Fluoride Toothpaste uses a proprietary dimethicone and silica polishing system to remove surface stains without the harsh abrasives or peroxide in most whitening toothpastes. The AP (Anti-Plaque) formula fights plaque buildup while gradually brightening teeth through regular brushing. Contains fluoride for cavity protection. The vanilla-mint flavour is genuinely different from standard toothpaste — milder, sweeter, and more pleasant. The low RDA (Relative Dentin Abrasivity) value makes it safe for twice-daily use without enamel damage. A cult favourite worldwide, and at R178, competitive with premium toothpastes at Dis-Chem and Clicks.

Sodium Fluoride (0.24%): Cavity protection. Dimethicone + Silica System: Gentle surface stain removal. Anti-Plaque Agents: Plaque reduction and gum health.

How to Use

Brush twice daily, 2 minutes. Whitening effect visible within 2–4 weeks. Safe for long-term daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I order in South Africa?

Order from nubestskin.com. Standard shipping: R99, free over R1,999. Delivery: 3–7 business days.

Q: How white will my teeth get?

AP 24 removes surface stains (coffee, tea, rooibos, red wine). It won't bleach beyond natural colour — that requires professional treatment. Removing accumulated stains reveals a noticeably brighter natural smile.

Q: Why does everyone mention the flavour?

The vanilla-mint is genuinely pleasant — milder and sweeter than medicinal mint. It makes twice-daily brushing enjoyable rather than routine.
