5 Teeth Whitening Treatment Choices

When deciding on what is the best way to whiten your teeth, you need to

have an understating on the various teeth whitening choices available.

With this information, you can then make your decision based on the cost, ease of use and brightening effects of

each choice.

Here are 5 teeth whitening treatment choices:

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Choice #1 - Home Remedies

http://www.DrMohanty.com

This involves the use of readily available natural foods and ingredients

as a home grown solution.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

It includes the use of lemon and orange peels, strawberries, baking soda, hydrogen peroxide and salt.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

The advantage of home remedies is that they are affordable, easy to use

and have a gentle effect.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

In addition they can be part of your normal oral regimen and contribute to

better oral health.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

However, if you want to see quick results, home remedies may not be the best choice because they take at least 4-8 weeks to see any noticeable

sparkle.

Choice # 2 -Toothpastes and Gels

http://www.DrMohanty.com

These are the normal toothpastes and gels with active teeth whitening ingredients such as baking soda.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

They are easily available in your grocery store, are generally budget-

friendly and used in the same way as normal toothpaste.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Just like home remedies, it takes time to see results from teeth whitening

toothpastes and one should be patient to diligently use them daily to see

results after about 2-4 weeks.

Choice # 3 -Mouthwashes and Rinses

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Another gentle everyday whitening treatment choice are mouthwashes and rinses that contain whitening

ingredients such as hydrogen peroxide.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Due to their low concentration of whitening ingredients and the fact they are just swished around the

mouth, they are not a very effective choice.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

However, they are a great choice for everyday oral care and hygiene with the added benefit of adding sparkle

over time.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Choice # 4- Whitening Strips and Bleaching Kits

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Whitening strips have become a popular teeth whitening treatment

choice because they offer faster whitening effects compared to

toothpastes and gels.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

They are basically strips of paper containing whitening ingredients that one sticks to the surface of the teeth

for about 30 minutes.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Bleaching kits come with a bleaching solution and a mouthpiece.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Due to their direct contact with the teeth for an extended period, they can

be a very effective option.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

They generally cost about $30 and can be bought in your local drug store.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Choice # 5- Professional Teeth Whitening

http://www.DrMohanty.com

This choice involves visiting a dentist for a professional teeth whitening

service.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

This is a good choice if you don’t want to attempt whitening your teeth

yourself, if you have badly stained teeth that don’t respond to home kits

or if you want to get immediate results.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Dentists have access to professional strength teeth whiteners and are

better placed to advice you on the best teeth whitening program for you

specifically.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

However one must be willing to bear the extra expense of several hundred

dollars in dental fees if you choose this option.
