Whitening Comfort: Tray-based Teeth Whitening

Tray-based teeth whitening products are the best you can have at home

But “No pain, No Gain!”

Tray-based teeth whitening kits are the most effective at-home whitening products you can buy. Unfortunately these products score the lowest on whitening comfort.

On the upside these are the best products you can use at-home. They are relatively inexpensive and they do work. But you have to accept some discomfort for those white teeth.

Treatments can take 1 to 4 hours per day for several weeks. Trays can be uncomfortable to wear and certain gels taste bad.

If you decide to bleach your teeth at home you must consider custom fitted trays. These trays are trimmed of at the gum line. This way your trays leak less gel. That means less irritation and less bad taste. Make sure your trays cover the back teeth as well. The extra support from back teeth will hold the tray in place.

Thermoform trays are the worst when it comes to comfort. Whitening with these trays is even more problematic. Try to avoid these if you don’t want your kit end up unused in the bathroom drawer.

You will also have to spend some time looking for the best available teeth whitening kits.

Supermarkets don’t carry these products. There are two ways you can buy serious tray-based bleaching products.

1. Order on-line or from a catalog.
2. Your dentist can give you a prescription.

If you want the best out of your tray-based teeth whitening products you must prepare your gums and teeth before treatments.
