Best home/DIY teeth whitening options?

C_Mababejive

Hi all,

I am looking for a home teeth whitening option.

I dont need a piano keyboard/Hollywood type smile, i just need maybe to remove light staining. Having said that i want to do it safely,without abrasion etc.

Is thjis doable,is it safe,what should i use?

I had a look on the supermarket shelves and there is a plethora of options from toothpastes and gels to kits.

Input from dental professionals is very welcome

Thanks

If its just light staining you want removing then perhaps worth visiting your dental hygienist for a deep clean? I know my teeth end up looking significantly cleaner/whiter after every visit to the hygienists.

Otherwise, for teeth whitening done in a safe & effective manner, it should be done by your dentist. They usually show you a white shade chart and you select a shade which you're happy with.

The best way to whitening teeth is going to a dentist for professional teeth whitening. If it's just light staining, could you not visit a hygienist for a clean to get rid of the stains?
