DIY Teeth Whitening

DIY teeth whitening is an umbrella term that covers any method that you can use to whiten your teeth yourself, in the comfort of your own home. There are many advantages to taking this DIY approach to teeth whitening, the most obvious of which is the vastly reduced cost. Then there’s also the convenience factor, you can buy a whitening product and start the process as soon as you want - instead of waiting for your next dental appointment.

Before you start a DIY teeth whitening program it is first important to understand how correct dental hygiene can greatly enhance the results of the whitening. Everyday you should brush your teeth three times a day with a whitening toothpaste and rinse thoroughly with mouthwash. You should also floss regularly to remove debris from between your teeth. Plaque and germs on your teeth can cause an uneven whitening outcome.

The best way to go for DIY teeth whitening is a whitening gel kit. These kits come with a whitening gel, a tray and a syringe (don’t worry it’s not a needle) to insert the gel into the tray. This tray goes over your teeth and allows for direct contact between your teeth and the whitening gel. The best whitening gel kits also come with a laser light, these enhance and quicken the whitening process.

My personal favorite teeth whitening gel kit is offered by Pro White Teeth. For just $80 you get a month’s supply of the kit which is enough for one treatment. Bear in mind that you will probably only need to purchase a kit every six months and you can see what fantastic value for money this is. Do you want to pay $160 over a year for a DIY teeth whitening kit or somewhere around £1,000 for the same treatment at your dentist?

Not only is the kit affordable but it has many other benefits too. The mixture contains 16% carbamide peroxide which is guaranteed to whiten your teeth by three to eight shades. If you look around this is twice the expected result of many teeth whitening kits. It is also very delicate to your teeth and gums because of the balanced pH and the fact that it doesn’t use animal products in the gel, unlike other whitening kits. When you combine all this with the fact that you not only get a plasma whitening laser as well as gel top-ups for just $18.99, you can see why my choice of whitening kit is Pro White Teeth's Platinum Teeth Whitening System.

The best place to get it is directly from Pro Teeth Whitening’s website - ProWhiteTeeth.com.

“My system arrived in about 4 days. I used it the same day. Very good instructions were included and the process was easy. I saw a slight improvement the 1st day. The 3rd time I used it, however, resulted in an amazing transformation. I have used it for 7 sessions and I am probably 8+ shades whiter. I highly recommend this product.”

“The results are really there. Very easy to use and results showed up after the first bleaching. I am very pleased and would recommend to anyone looking for whiter teeth. Oh yeah the price was good too.”
