I rarely stick to one particular brand, preferring to try out new products and in particular looking for good deals and this was certainly a bargain!
I picked up this special 'twin pack', 150ml for the price of 75ml from my local Home Bargains shop at a super value price of just 99p!
■■■ Packaging ■■■
The tube comes in a cuboid box / packaging, very much like the majority of other toothpastes on the market. Mine differs slightly as the two cuboid boxes are attached.
The tube is slightly different from the majority I have used of late. Rather than a flip top lid, this toothpaste has a screw top lid. In my opinion, this is far more favourable than the flip-top lids as there is absolutely no chance of the horrible dry bits of paste accumulating round the top of the nozzle which is so often the case, if the flip top hasn't been pushed down properly!
■■■ What do the manufacturers say? ■■■
- Fresh Mint taste - Specially formulated for the removal of nicotine, tea, coffee and red wine and general food stains - Protects sensitive teeth and gums. - Contains fluoride to strengthen teeth and protect against decay - Freshens breath - For everyday use - Restores the natural colour of teeth - Contains a unique cleaning formula called 'polynam' which cleans your teeth and helps prevent the return of stains.
The twin pack that I bought has most of this information written in English on the outer packaging but the actual tube has the information about tea, coffee and red wine stains written in Italian. Not a problem for me but for those of you who don't speak Italian, it could be!
■■■ My Experience ■■■
- Taste and Smell -
It certainly does have a fresh, minty smell and taste. It's just about the right amount of mintiness to it. So many toothpastes are just so minty that they actually sting the inside of my mouth when I am using them, not so with this one!
The toothpaste leaves my breath feeling fresh but it has to be said that the fresh breath doesn't linger for long afterwards so that is a slight disadvantage to the paste.
- Does it clean my teeth? -
This cleans my teeth just as well as other more well-known brands such as Colgate, Aquafresh etc.
Despite being a smoker… I know, I shouldn't! I don't have badly stained teeth at all at the front but the back of my teeth do have stains. I don't drink tea, coffee or red wine so these types of stains aren't an issue for me.
However with age my teeth have become less white. I was always lucky, having very pearly white teeth until I hit my 30s and as I draw ever nearer to my 40s they aren't quite so white at all!
I have never used a toothpaste specifically for smokers and as stated earlier only picked this up due to it's ever so cheap purchase price! I was expecting a very gritty, rough texture to the paste but this is certainly not the case. You would never know that this toothpaste had 'smokers' in mind. No harshness to it's texture at all.
As for the stains. It hasn't transformed my ageing teeth in to the state they were many moons ago but some of the stains at the back of my teeth have diminished slightly. Only me and the dentist are privy to these stains but it makes me feel better that they have diminished, so a plus for me!
This isn't a miracle worker and hasn't 'restored my brilliant smile' which is one of the claims on the packaging. However it certainly hasn't been any worse than any of the more popular household names in the world of toothpastes and for the price it was well worth it.

Advantages: Tastes pleasant Disadvantages: Don't know if it removes stains
Another of my recent bargain basement buys, and bought because I am fairly obsessed with tooth care products. Having no loyalty to any brand, I always tend to buy the products which promise to keep stains at bay, and with this on special offer, it was obviously worth a go.
~~~~What does it do?~~~~
This is apparently a deep cleaning toothpaste which removes tobacco stains, so I assume if it can remove these stains it must be able to remove any other ... ...say it can remove food stains, so I assume such teeth staining things as Coffe, tea, and red wine are included in this.
It also contains fluoride, and freshens breath, so it should in any event be a good all round toothpaste especially as it's for every day use, and not one of these weekly fixes, which I would obviously forget to do. So, a handy one because everyome can use it twice a day when you normally clean your teeth.
~~~~How does it do all ...

Advantages: Whitens teeth. Not expensive Disadvantages: None
I have tried the more expensive toothpastes that claim to whiten your teeth,some cost me in the region of £10, but none of them worked and I felt very disappointed and slightly ripped off.
A friend recommended Clinomynsmokerstoothpaste to me, and I thought that i would give it a try. It is reported to remove stains caused by smoking , drinking and eating. It costs about £1.80 for a 75ml tube.
It has a fresh minty taste and is quite strong tasting.
The mouth feels really fresh and clean after brushing. It contains flouride to protect the teeth enamel and also guard against decay. I was very surprised, after only a few days use I could definitely see the difference in my teeth. The difference was remarkable. This stuff, if used regulary, does actually help to remove stains and hence whiten the teeth. I first started using it 2 ...

Advantages: Gleaming white teeth with no stains Disadvantages: none
About six months ago I decided to give up smoking and thought I would never need clinomyntooth paste again so I threw it away and used normal toothpaste. I failed to give up smoking and carried on using the normal one, and then my teeth started to discolour again with stains reappearing on my front teeth.
Now I am using clinomyntoothpaste again, stains have nearly disappeared again. Clean and sparkling my teeth are getting again. The dentist can?t get rid of the stain completely so this must tell you how good this is. Clinomyn is also known as smoker?stoothpaste. It tastes like normal toothpaste
If it gets your teeth this clean you would actually wonder what it consists of. ...

years later in the kind of tubes we still see today. Bizarrely soap was used as an emulsifying agent right up until the end of the Second World war but thankfully those days have long past. Little has changed since, the addition of fluoride and various 'gimmicks' have been incorporated and specialist brands tailored brands have appeared but otherwise much is the same...
~Clinomyn~
~General~
Clinonym has been on the market for over 30 years and is one of the top toothpastes for stain removal. It is marketed as the "choice for smokers who are concerned about the appearance of their teeth" but to be fair it can be used for removing any kind of stains from teeth like coffee in my case. After having tried McCleans Whitening, Pearl Drops and Aquafresh Whitening this is the one I have come back to ever time because the results are the best ...
