Teeth Whitening Products and Comfort

Do you know what teeth whitening products do the best job?

The ones you can and willing to use.

Comfortable products do mean the difference between a “white smile” and no results at all.

Learn from my friend’s teeth whitening experience. – His teeth whitening kit ended up in the bathroom drawer.

But, how do you know what is comfortable and what isn’t?

You want whiter teeth. All products require you to tolerate some discomfort.

Everyone has a limit. Where is yours?

How much discomfort are you willing to accept for whiter teeth?

Teeth whitening comfort means all of the following things:

• Buying comfort: How easy is it to get the product of your choice?
• Preparations: How easy is it to prepare your teeth and gums for teeth whitening? How easy is it to clean up after each teeth whitening treatment?
• Treatment comfort: How comfortable is it to use the whitening product? How much discomfort do you have to tolerate during treatments?

• Whitening toothpaste (comfortable, easy to use, not effective) more...
  
  
• Whitening strips (easy to use, no mess, moderately effective) more...
  
  
• Tray-based teeth whitening products (most effective at-home whitening products, quality of tray is key to comfort) more...
  
  
• Paint-on teeth whitening products (easy to use, not very effective) more...
  
  
• Professional teeth whitening (unpredictable, but fast) more…

Evaluating whitening comfort

Comfort is a very personal topic. But it is a very important one. When I evaluate teeth whitening products comfort comes right after whitening power. I take comfort seriously because uncomfortable products don’t work. They don’t work because you will not use them.
