Has anyone here tried CareKate's tooth whitening formula?
 (Auro Ear (Wax Removal) Drops and/or GlyOxide oral hygiene product.) |

Hi MelissaMarie,
I've decided to give it a try and why not? 
It sounds simple yet effective. It would be awesome to discover something (homemade) that mirror's $$ retail products.  |

The Glyoxide is for tooth health. It's slightly minty-sweet. But I think the earwax drops worked better for me, though they're both pretty darn good.

| ladyA- I use the Gly Oxide and it works brilliantly! I recently went to an open day at a beauty clinic where tooth whitening was being carried out at half-price. I enquired about it and was told that my teeth matched the whitest shade that they could achieve. I hadn't realised how bright they actually are and it's all down to using that,so I owe CareKate a big thankyou. |

| My dentist, about ten yrs ago, told em to buy gly oxide instead of refill gel for my trays. He said its same, works as good and alot cheaper! That was enons ago! So even dentists or at least mine approve and have known of this for ages... |

I was able to find Murine (Wax Removal) Drops in my local drug store and have used it for a couple of days with mild results (but slightly noticable.) Just for comparison I've searched for GlyOxide but to no avail (yet.)
I am known to be persistent though  |

Hello All,
I've still had no luck finding a pharmacy that sells Glyoxide in Vancouver. Can anyone help? |

| I'v been using the Murine also, and I really don't ming the taste. My teeth were already pretty white, but when I do use the Murine, it reall brightens them up. I didn't think I'd notice any change, but I did, and fairly quickly. |

| LadyA, I live in the UK and like you, couldn't find Gly-oxide anywhere. CareKate sent me some when I ordered from her. Maybe it's only available in the USA. Do you know anyone there who could get you some and send it, or maybe another member may offer! |

Diana, are these Murine Eye Drops? or Murine Wax Removal Drops? Do you mind me asking where you found them?
TIA! |

It's the Murine Ear Wax Remover Drops, with 6.5% carbamide peroxide. I just got them at PharmaPlus, I think for about $6. It's quite thick, so I just apply a few drops using my finger, onto my front teeth, then close my mouth for as long as I can, at least for 10 mins. Then I use a toothbrush and bruch my teeth with it. It didn't take long to notice a difference. |

Hello everyone!
This is my first post - I've been lurking on these boards regarding tooth whitening with ear drops. Very interesting. I'm also in Vancouver, BC, Canada. I couldn't find Auro ear wax removal but I did find another product called Flents ear drops (same active ingredient as Auro). It seems LadyA is having trouble finding GlyOxide where we live - if anyone finds out where we can buy it, do let us know! Would like to try that also.
See ya! |

| For those of you using the glyoxide, how often do you do it? Do you use this daily or intermittently? |

I use it every time I brush my teeth -- I wet my toothbrush, squeeze on a couple drops of Gly Oxide and then my toothpaste and then get to brushin! In addition to whitening my teeth, the Gly Oxide just makes my whole mouth feel cleaner....
I'm going to google some Canadian online pharmacies to see if I can find an equivilent product that you ladies can use...I'll update you if I find anything. |

Sorry, I can't find any Canadian equivilent to Gly Oxide on the online pharmacies/drug stores but I'd be happy to make a custom purchase for anyone outside the US that wants to try it -- just PM me.
For everyone else in the US, remember that the ear drops are going to be found in the Eye/Ear Care section of the drugstore. Gly Oxide is going to be found in the toothpaste/mouthwash/denture cream/dental floss aisle. |

Yes. The ear drops have a strange minty taste (why the ear drops are flavored is anyone's guess b/c we don't have tastebuds in our ear canals, right?!) while the Gly Oxide is completely flavorless. Also, the Gly Oxide has a higher precentage of peroxide (10% vs. 6.5% in the ear drops) so I feel they work a bit faster to get noticeable results but both of them work as well as high-dollar tooth whitening products. If they ever stop making Gly Oxide, I'd go back to using the ear drops in a heartbeat! |

| Hi carekate, thanks so much for passing on this teeth whitening tip. I was wondering how long you keep the stuff on your teeth/in your mouth? |

I've been using the Murine eardrops for a while, and do see some effects although minimal. I still haven't been able to find GlyOxide in Cdn pharmacies yet. I drink tea, coffee and red wine - and unfortunate mix.
Looking for updates.
Many thanks |

There's a possibility that you guys have an equivilent product up there, but it has a different brand name. The actual purpose of GLy Oxide is as an "oral antiseptic cleanser" and/or "brushing aid."
Next time you're at the drugstore or supermarket, mosey down the toothpaste/mouthwash aisle and see if there's any product that is labled as a oral antiseptic cleanser or brushing aid. If you find something that looks likely, take a look at the ingredient label and see if it contains "10% carbamide peroxide," which is the primary active ingredient in Gly Oxide.
Another thought: do you guys have any branches of the American-based pharmacy chains like Walgreens, CVS, or RiteAid up there? Or maybe Walmart or Target? If you do, you might have more luck finding it at one of the stores.
Again, I'm happy to make a CP (custom purchase) for anyone outside the US that wants to try it -- just PM me.
One more thing: if you can give me the names of some Canadian pharmacy chains, I'll take a look at there websites and see if I can find a Gly Oxide clone for you. When I tried to look for Cdn drugstore websites earilier, the only ones that came up on my search was one's that actually sell prescription meds online for Americans that can't afford to buy there meds here because they don't have health insurance coverage (and because American pharmaceutical companies charge the earth for the meds sold here  ).... |
