Does your toothpaste have charcoal?

I’ve noticed that more toothpaste brands now have charcoal as one of their ingredients. They often claim it helps whiten teeth and remove stains.
I've tried charcoal toothpaste before, and I thought it was pretty good. It left my mouth feeling clean, although I'm not sure if it really made my teeth any whiter.
I'm curious if anyone here uses charcoal toothpaste. Have you noticed any difference? Do you like it better than regular toothpaste, or do you think it's just another trend?

I think I’ve tried toothpaste with charcoal, but I’m not quite sure. If I did, it was a while ago. I mean, it makes sense to me that it would do what they claim, but I don’t really think it could do much more than other toothpastes already do.

I am a person who would like to use toothpaste that I am familiar with to clean my teeth.

@sol_cee Thank you for your understanding since I fear the charcoal on them.

I’ve seen charcoal toothpaste in stores, but I have never tried it before. I use toothpaste with either baking soda or hydrogen peroxide to whiten my teeth.

@sol_cee Yes for sure, I drink coffee twice a day and it has removed surface stains. I use a straw now when I drink coffee to keep me teeth pearly white lol

@BACONSTRIPSXXX Haha, that's commitment! I don't think I could drink hot coffee through a straw
