For many years, if people wanted to whiten their teeth, the only option they had was to see their dentist. However, people are usually too scared to visit the dentist. Even if they needed to have their teeth whitened, the appointment usually ended up being postponed or cancelled.
If you have a fear of the dentist or simply don't have the time to visit the dentist's office, there are now products you can use to whiten your teeth at home whitening kits or a tray-based whitening technique. Trays with bleaching gels are the most effective method for whiter teeth, but it's highly recommended that you use a bleaching gel with a concentration of at least 21% - this means whiter teeth in less time.
The amount of time it takes before you start to see results of whitening your teeth at home whitening kits may tear down and thin out the enamel of teeth. It's very important not to use a gel that contains glycerin. Glycerin by itself is not harmful, but when it is combined with carbamide peroxide, it draws water out of the enamel in order to speed up the bleaching process. This can lead to very sensitive teeth.
Regardless if you whiten your teeth using a kit or you visit the doctor for a professional treatment, the best way to maintain a nice smile is to practice good oral hygiene and use the right products on your teeth.
