Does the Northerner Energy Portion Actually whiten teeth?

[pangloss]

If so I can't wait to stop brushing

[Badfish74]

The review I read said that it doesn't so much whiten them as it does help prevent staining. That's just what I read, not my personal experience.

The ones I have do no seem to make any brown juice that I can notice. My teeth are actually whiter since I started snusing over smoking. Probably because Im worried about staining and brush and floss a lot more.

Yes it does but you have to place one over every tooth.

Do any [normal] snus actually cause staining?
I can't say that I've noticed any difference but I'm still a newbie (~ 1 month).

Welcome to Snuson Kitabz

Regular portions do cause some staining issues for some people. But honestly, for me at least, it never really did. I largely only use whites now but used regular portions my first year of snusing, and just didn't see much staining. But some folks have had significant staining, so I guess it just depends on your teeth.

Again, welcome.

Thanks for your reply and welcome.
I'll keep an eye out and hope for the best!
Worst case I'll just stick to these purified ones which are pretty good but not as mellow as the real ones.

They whiten your teeth, freshen your breath, wake you up, provide a nic hit, improve your sex life, grow hair on your head, make you irresistible to the opposite sex (or the same sex depending on your preference), wins the lottery for you, improves your cars gas mileage, gets you a raise at work, helps you lose weight, adds two inches to your height, and gets you free beer at the bar.

Just what he said.

Anyway, if you brush your teeth in the morning and night, your teeth won't stain. I know some people that don't brush too often and they have terrible, discolored teeth, and none of them use any form of tobacco.

Wonderful Idea! *crams them all in!* Whitening action and I can go boxing without a mouthpiece!

Another question?

Is there a strong honey aftertaste to these? or is it a slightly sweet peppermint flavor?

I wouldn't say it's strong but it's definitely noticeable and unmistakably honey. Compared to regular snus, they don't have much flavour but they are sweeter and the nic-hit is a bit different (makes me a bit jumpy at the start). They last for quite a while (2-3 hours for me) and are very small which is a bonus if you want to keep it discrete.

If you don't want to feel "jumpy", try Elyxr Power. I find it is a MUCH better energy snus, just makes my body feel good without that jumpiness you referred to. Doesn't taste as good but a much better effect IMHO.

Oh okay, thanks. I didn't really want the "energy" side of this Northerner one, just the different flavouring and to try some purifieds. I get the same jumpiness with the Oomph purifieds too (and they're not "energy" so I think it's to do with them releasing their nicotine differently and/or some counteracting/mellowing ingredient in the tobacco that's been taken out.)

(I drink gallons of coffee a day so it certainly isn't the minimal amount of caffeine in the Northerner one that's causing the jumpiness!)

I've found that they don't whiten, but they leave that tooth paste-like freshness behind.
