Teeth Bleaching Options

Invest in your smile, it's the only one you've got!


red lipseyeshadowHow does teeth bleaching work exactly? Basically, it's a procedure where the tooth enamel is painted beyond the surface.

Note: these bleaching products usually contain Glycerin, which can cause temporary tooth insensitivity, but is considered harmless.

Remember, you are investing in a beautiful, confident smile so it's one of the most important beauty decisions you'll make. Thankfully, the days of expensive cosmetic dental costs are over. Nowadays you can find cheap teeth bleaching kits to use in the comfort of your own home.

What Are Your Teeth Bleaching Options?

  • mascaraPaint On Whitening: A cheap option which involves painting the whitening product onto your teeth and waiting for it to dry. In two weeks, moderate results can be seen. One of these products is Rembrandt Whitening Want. I personally dislike this product because it's very easy to miss a spot on your teeth but if you are very meticulous and take your time, it can work for you.
  • Trays With Bleaching Gels: This method is what you used to go to the dentist for. You can do this yourself now, which is a relief. Many established companies now offer this product with the same amount of bleach formulation used by dentists. A mould is usually provided so that the tray is the perfect imprint of your teeth. This ensures that all surfaces are covered.

The procedure is pretty simple once you get the hang of it. Put the gel in the moulded trays, place the tray in your mouth and wait for the determined period of time. 

Here are 2 pics of my teeth after the treatment, I will post a "before" pic as soon as I find it (I never smiled before because of my yellow teeth!). As you can see, my teeth are not perfect but they are white. I used TheraBrite Plus Whitening Kit (which contains glycol instead of Glycerin. Glycol helps prevent tooth sensitivity issues).

  • Strips on Teeth:  This involves applying strips directly on teeth and leaving for some time, even overnight. I personally don't like this method because, again, it's very easy to miss spots (especially between the teeth). Because of this, the results are weaker, in my opinion.

(Crest (whitening strips) Classic or Renewal line works fine too. You wear them for 7 or 10 days. The Classic 14 days. And Renewal 10 day. The Renewal lifts deep stains (I'm an ex-smoker, coffee drinker etc) but the Classic gave me better lasting results)


So what's the verdict?


As you probably guessed by now, the trays with bleaching gels are the best teeth whitening options. They produce professional results and last much longer.
