strips

whitening strips are basically DIY dentist. thin plastic coated with peroxide gel that you stick on your teeth. they work surprisingly well and results show up in like 3-5 days. way cheaper than professional whitening.

how do they work?

  • •the gel on the strip has peroxide (the actual whitening stuff)
  • •it bleaches the stains on your teeth (not dangerous, it's safe amounts)
  • •you wear them for 30 min to 1 hour daily
  • •most treatments last 7-14 days

gentle

for sensitive teeth

  • • lower peroxide (6-10%)
  • • less sensitivity
  • • slower results

standard

the balanced one

  • • medium peroxide (10-14%)
  • • good results
  • • some sensitivity

professional

for the impatient

  • • higher peroxide (14%+)
  • • fast results
  • • more sensitive teeth

don't be dumb:

  • • don't leave them on longer than recommended. your teeth will be extra sensitive and you won't get better results.
  • • if your teeth get really sensitive, switch to gentle strips or take breaks
  • • strips work on the front 6-8 teeth only. back teeth won't whiten.
  • • they work on natural tooth color. can't whiten crowns, fillings, or veneers.
  • • results last 6-12 months depending on your habits (coffee = your enemy)

bottom line:

strips are the easiest way to whiten your teeth at home. pick the strength that matches your sensitivity. follow the instructions and don't leave them on too long. you'll see results in days.
