Let's Compare Home Teeth Whitening Kits

Expert Author Nancy Hanson

Every time you turn around it seems like some new company is making a "cheaper and faster" version of home teeth whitening kits.  Not every product works the same, no matter what the manufactures tell us and some can be very messy and end up delivering poor results.

When it comes to home teeth whitening kits you have several different options to choose from:

  1. Bleaching Strips - these are applied (like a long piece of tape) to your upper and lower teeth.  The main downside to strips, in my opinion at least, is that they do not cover all of your teeth, only the teeth most visible when you smile.  So for people who have a wide smile, this is not a very good choice.
  2. Quick Dissolving Strips - the concept is interesting because it is simple and there is no removal necessary, however, due to acid and fluids in your mouth these are not as effective as the normal strips.
  3. Gel - that is applied like a tooth paste, using a toothbrush.
  4. Trays - this is the original method of home teeth whitening kits and is probably the most inconvenient choice of all.  You are provided with a plastic tray that has to be softened in hot water and then shaped to fit your teeth.   Anyone who has ever tried this method knows it is almost impossible to do correctly which leaves the user with inconsistent whitening results.
  5. Laser Based Whitening Lights - You apply a solution to your teeth and then shine a UV based light on them for a certain amount of time each day.
  6. Pen applicators - this is probably the most convenient and cleanest option that exists today.

Do your research and decide what method is right for you then get started on the road to a whiter, more beautiful smile today!
