Answers:
One popular tooth whitening product that you can use is bleaching solution that contains peroxide for bleaching tooth enamel. The bleaching agent in these products is usually carbamide peroxide, which is available in 10, 16 and 22 percent concentrations.

Whiteners that contain peroxide typically come in gel form and are placed in a mouthguard. Some products are used twice a day for 2 weeks while others are intended for overnight use for a 1 to 2 weeks period. If you can obtain the bleaching solution from your dentist, he will be able to construct a custom mouth guard to fit your teeth precisely. Currently, the American Dental Association endorses only dentist-dispensed home-use percent carbamide peroxide tray-applied gels.

In addition to bleaching solution, whitening strips are increasingly being used as a preferred tooth whitening product. For instance, you are now able to get your hands on a set of Crest Whitestrips Supreme from any convenience store. The flexible, invisible strips are coated with an enamel-safe tooth bleaching gel. To whiten your teeth, you simply place the strips on your teeth and wear them for about 15 to 30 minutes each day. After a period of about 21 days, you should be able to see a significant difference on the brightness of your teeth.

Health Question & Answer

All of the bleaches, over-the-counter and office (Zoom) are the same stuff. The office version is just stronger, so you get results faster. The OTC stuff works, but you have to use as directed. NONE of the bleaches will take you to unnaturally white unless you are genetically predisposed to that. Abrasive toothpastes (like Pearl Drops and Ultrabrite wear away your enamel. They may initially remove some surface stain, but over time, your teeth will become more yellow).
We use Zoom in our office, the results for some are fabulous, for others, not so hot. I'd say only about 15 to 20% of the people get outstanding results. Most get OK result and a few get no results. I usually recommend over the counter because it's cheaper.Health Question & Answer

Hi,

Pearl Drops do a range of affordable pastes that DO actually work. I use them religiously twice a day and I saw a difference within a week. They have no harsh abrasives or bleaches so are safe to use on your teeth without damaging them. They also come with a colour card so you can see the difference in colour as you use it.

I hope this helps.Health Question & Answer
