What is the best tooth whitening product on the market?

Question

I've heard a lot of claims that those ones with U.V. lights work really well and also those with carbamide peroxide, but have also heard claims about it being unsafe at certain concentrations.

Answer 1

UV lights are no longer used because of its cancer inducing risk, the blue light that is currently used is purely in the visible light spectra and is harmless. Most whitening products have the same ingredients but in different concentrations.

a detailed color analysis and surface analysis of your teeth needs be done including taking photos under magnification to look at surface texture before the dentist can decide which product will be appropriate for you.

always go for the professional whitening as it is a more controlled process and will give you best results

Answer 2

Best teeth whitening.
Reviews agree that professional tooth whitening treatments are, by far, the quickest and most successful way to brighten up your pearly whites. This can be done at a dentist-supervised whitening center such as BriteSmile or by your own dentist, with a procedure like the Zoom! Chairside Whitening System. This technique uses light therapy to speed up the bleaching action of hydrogen peroxide, lightening teeth up to ten shades in about an hour. While it's the most expensive option, it also lasts the longest, up to a couple of years. A slightly cheaper option (*est. $300 to $600) is an ADA-approved bleaching kit provided by your dentist. These have 10% peroxide and a custom-fitted mouth tray that you can wear at home, either for one to two hours per day or overnight.

Best home teeth-whitening kit.
Over-the-counter whitening systems are much cheaper, but not nearly as effective or long lasting as professional tooth whitening. Of the various options on the market, Crest Whitestrips earn the highest marks in reviews for convenience and effectiveness, which averages about three shades. One reviewer describes these strips as "little Band-Aids" that you wear on your top and bottom front teeth for 30 minutes twice a day. Crest Whitestrips use 6% peroxide. One drawback is that the strips can cause you to drool, so these are probably best used at home.
• Colgate Simply White Night
(*est. $15)

Overnight tooth whitener.
If you're too busy to spend part of your day waiting for tooth whiteners to work, whitening while you sleep may sound appealing. Colgate Simply White Night is a brush-on whitener that The Wall Street Journal calls one of the easiest to use. Because it's a brush-on formula, it's easier to get in between uneven teeth where a strip might not reach. The gel is absorbed, so there's no need to rinse. Colgate also uses 6% peroxide -- the maximum allowable for over-the-counter tooth whiteners.

Answer 4

That's easy...I was just at the dentists office last week and asked and was told that the Crest Whitestrips that their office sell are the best. You have to ask for them from a dentist because they are stronger than the ones sold in the stores. Good luck! ; )
