Think you’ve seen it all when it comes to viral TikTok trends? Well get this ... now some people are using Magic Erasers - yep, the cleaning product you use to get tough stains out of the walls and counters - as a DIY teeth-whitening technique.

TikTok user @theheatherdunn has a vibrant smile and shares that she’s always getting compliments at the dentist for her “strong and healthy teeth.” She also reveals the way she gets her teeth so bright and white - by avoiding fluoride, doing something called oil pulling and using a Magic Eraser on her teeth. Her method involves breaking off a tiny piece of the Magic Eraser and wetting it, then scrubbing the surface of her teeth with it. But is it safe? Not according to Dr. Maha Yakob, an oral healthcare expert. Check out the TikTok below!
