Growing at a rate of 10% per annum and increasing, teeth whitening is becoming the no1 growing industry in the cosmetic sector and creating a craze whereby everyone is wanting to get a whiter brighter smile.
There are many different methods of teeth whitening, from the professional chair side whitening to the D.I.Y home teeth whitening kits, and again there are many different ways of doing it yourself at home, this article will give you an breakdown of the various types available on the market place.
Depending on the reason for wanting whiter teeth there will be a method that can be suited to you although finding the right home whitening kit can be tricky, the problem being that the gel normally supplied with a home kit is very mild and the chances of any significant change will be small.
To achieve the best result from a home kit it is best to be used as a touch-up following a professional treatment, however this will also depend on how bad your teeth are to start with, e.g. If you have naturally white teeth and just want to brighten you smile then a home kit might work better for you than someone who might have severely stained teeth.
What are my Options?
One of the most known options is the bleaching/whitening trays, and you can either visit your dentist and get a custom made one whereby they will then supply you with whitening agent, this can prove to be expensive when you consider the Dentist time, but a little search on the internet can get you results whereby a one-size fits all tray and gel can be brought, the downside to this is that you never know what you will get until it arrives and there are trays that are made from cheap materials and can be hard on the mouth, and because we are all individuals the tray might not fit as well therefore effecting the result you achieve.
You should in all cases read and understand the instructions before starting as each manufacturers timing on how to use the kit will be different.
Bleaching pens are also on the raise this is best suited to the individuals who wants to achieve a brighter smile but doesn't have the time to stop. Each pen contains a whitening gel which is applied to the surface of the teeth. To achieve results you do need to use on a regular basis.
One of the more easy options of home whitening kits comes in the form of whitening strips these are applied to the top and bottom teeth and left in place for a time period, all instructions should be read befoe starting as each product will differ and there are ones that dissolves.
In my professional opinion to get the best from any home whitening kit it is best to use as a touch-up/maintenance after having a professional whitening treatment done.
