Best Teeth Whitening

There is a disagreement within dentistry about the effectiveness of bleaching lights and lasers to increase the effectiveness of dentist in-office bleaching solutions.  Some dentists believe that teeth whitening is more effective with the use of light or lasers.  While other dentists believe that the effectiveness of the bleaching solution is not increased by using lights or lasers.

Different manufacturers, all promoting their own light source, claim that their light used with their bleaching solution increases the effectiveness of teeth whitening.  Bleaching lights look impressive and cost a few thousand dollars, making the set-up of a dentist in-office whitening system expensive to own and operate, increasing the cost of teeth whitening in the dentist office for the consumer.

Many recent studies show that the active ingredient in these teeth whitening solutions, peroxide, is effective without the use of a light.  These studies were done by whitening the teeth on one side of the mouth with the light, and the other side of the mouth without the light using the same whitening solution on both sides of the mouth.  The studies show that both sides of the mouth whitened equally well.  Could the promotion of bleaching lights simply be a marketing gimmick?





At Adult Dentistry of Rochester, Dr. Dulski uses a leading professional in-office teeth whitening brand that does not use a light or laser.  For the best value for your teeth whitening dollar, visit http://www.dulski.com/whiten.html.

  1. Many factors, including dietary habits (drinking coffee, tea, soda, and red wine) and certain medications, affect the whiteness of your smile. Tooth whitening is an affordable and effective way to combat common causes of tooth discoloration, while boosting your self-confidence and improving your appearance.

    Tooth Whitening Systems available through your dentist are stronger and more effective than over-the-counter teeth whitening products. The dentist-supervised, in-office procedure are safe and effective, and offers a brighter, whiter smile after just one appointment.

  4. I have used the light system in other offices I have worked at and found the results are the same as using a no light system. Plus the no light system is so much cheaper.

  5. Bleaching should be done only under a dentist's care. A dental office premises may be safe and effective for Teeth Whitening treatment. Thank you for sharing the information on Teeth Whitening...
