Differences Between Each Product

Many people were afraid of over the counter teeth-whitenin products as they became available. They were simply uneducated on them. They also thought that this could damage your teeth and would not trust them. However, over time, they soon realize that these products were just fine. Once people decided to start using them, there were already so many products on the market that it was difficult to figure out which ones were gonna work and which ones did not. The best method to try is trial and error. Simply see if you like the product and choose it with your own criteria in mind. Don't hesitate to discontinue using one and use another. However, do not over use a product or you might wind up with no teeth.

Chemical Ingredients

Active ingredients found in over the counter cosmetic teeth-whitening products are the same as the ones used at the dentist office. However, there is one major difference. That difference is that some will remove stains and others will not. There is also a major difference in the concentration used. This means that you need to be careful when you're using these products. This also means that you need to be aware of such ingredients as peroxides. Over using a peroxide is disliked over bleaching your hair. It will become dry and brittle. But unlike your hair, you cannot grow back your teeth. You need to consider this before you overuse a product.

Applying The Gel

Most teeth-whitening products involve a gel. For this reason, it can be confusing when there are so many different prices available. One of the main difference is is between a mouth tray and an application pen. Because the pens are newer, they're being sold for more money. However, over time, this price will reduce. Some people find that they need the application pen because they do not have time to clean their teeth or whiten them otherwise. They also might have a problem with teeth alignment and find having a tray to be next to impossible. - 30292
