What is a good teeth whitening system that can be bought online?
I got trays made a couple of years ago and went through a bleaching system, kind of half way. I'm wondering what a recommended brand of bleach or peroxide is. I paid like $ 200.00 for the trays and kind of wanted to get something stronger than Crest or an over the counter, any suggestions

You paid $ 200 just for bleaching trays ??? You got ripped off !
Do yourself a favor and don't waste any money on bleaching products for your teeth. The over the counter stuff is not strong enough. Go to a dentist if you have to bleach your teeth. Keep in mind that crowns, caps, fillings and other dental work will stay the same color, they will not become lighter.
Look, people don't know that teeth are living organs (having blood vessels and nerves), they're not just pieces of bone stuck in your gums... The colour of the tooth comes from within (the dentin), the enamel is the outer layer that covers the dental crown and protects it. The bleaching affects the enamel creating the temporary illusion of "whiter teeth". Ever wondered why you need to bleach AGAIN ?
Oh, let's mention the hypersensitivity you're left with after bleaching, and doesn't always go away...
Working in a dental office I could have this (bleaching) done for free (zero, zip, zilch, nada) but I choose not to do it !...If people only knew...

ReplyDeleteHere is a brief overview of the best whitening products for teeth that one can buy online.
ReplyDeleteStrips, like those marketed by Crest and Aquafresh in the late 1990's, remain a popular favourite amongst those you wish to whiten their teeth without the intervention of their local dreaded dentist. Usually retailing between the $ 30 to $ 50 mark, these mass produced plastic strips deliver on providing a whiter tooth, albeit of a lesser shade.
In some cases slight tooth sensitivity has been reported amongst its clients as when the strip is ripped off it takes a microscopic coating of the enamel off, thus allowing the tooth to experience slight sensations and pains when it comes into contact with substances both hot and cold.
Teeth Trays are another option where you wear a mouth-guard which is filled with a whitening gel. This gel then oxidises out the stain by use of a mild peroxide. You usually have to wear these for two hours daily but the results are very consistent.
The most popular product that people buy for whitening teeth online however are products that make use of the cotton swab method. Only very recently released, this method allows for quicker and whiter results.
This is due to the combination of a whitening liquid and a polishing powder that the cotton swab contains. The process usually takes between 2-5 minutes, which immediately gives it an edge over its competitors.
All in all the best teeth whitening products to buy online mostly rest on the individual purchaser.
There are plenty of products out there. Some are good some are not so good. Quite a few offer free trials and guarantee. I would recommend those as you have nothing to lose.
