Tooth Whitening Systems - The Whole Story

By Tracey Fielding


There are so many different teeth whitening products available to consumers now days that choosing one can be a difficult task. And a number of them just wont give you the results you are looking for.

Teeth whitening through a dentist is still considered to be the best teeth whitening method. It is not only the most effective, but the quickest way to get those pearly white teeth you are after.

But then, not all people can afford the fees that come with each treatment. Fear of seeing a dentist may be another reason people don't like this option. It would seem that since childhood, visiting the dentist is one of the most disliked experiences a person can have.

Though you don't normally find Dentists promoting teeth whitening products, I'm sure most would agree that they do work. Studies have even shown that some of these products are so good that they do just as good a job as procedures performed by dentists.

Many of these products are on par with professional teeth whitening services because they contain exactly the same ingredients. The two active ingredients in all of these types of whitening products are carbamide and the bleaching agent hydrogen peroxide You can obtain many of these products cheaply from every day grocery stores.

The biggest advantage of over the counter teeth whitening products is the low cost. Anyone can now afford to do teeth whitening at home. It's as simple as including it in your next weekly shopping.

$30 or less is the common price for such products now days. Just compare that to the usual $100 or more charged by Dentist and other professional services and you can see why this is becoming the preferred choice for tooth whitening

There are also disadvantages with in home teeth whitening solutions. Consider the following:

1. Many options.

All teeth whitening products try to cater to everyone. The problem is we are all different with differing needs. What one person finds effective may not work for others. This is perhaps the main problem individuals encounter when trying these products.

Many people will have sensitive teeth and gums The reaction to the products will depend upon the suitability of the products to the persons using them. In this case it's beneficial to try different products to find one that suits you best.

2. The use of strong chemicals

You will not know what your reaction to the product until you have tried it out. Since you do not know how sensitive your teeth are, you will also not know what might happen when you start using the product.

Better consult with your dentist first before choosing a certain product.

3. The tray doesn't fit.

The standard tray that comes with the products is obviously not a custom fit. So it could be ether to big or too small resulting in a poor fit to your teeth. When it is too large, the formula may not work well. On the other side of the coin when the tray is too small it could cause irritation including bleeding to your gums.

You should find the best treatment for your requirements. If you cant find a suitable of the shelf product then maybe consider a professional solution.
