Achieving a whiter smile requires the proper tools. In addition to improving your oral-care routine with a whitening toothpaste, investing in one of the best teeth-whitening kits can help enhance your smile in the convenience of your own home.

Powered by professional-grade technology that is both trusted and used by dentists, these at-home teeth-whitening sets are stocked with innovative whitening gel formulas that coat and oxidize the teeth once they come in contact — bleaching them to look anywhere from one to nine shades whiter after completing your treatment. In order to deliver fast results, these kits will oftentimes involve an LED light device, which enhances the efficacy of the system’s whitening gel.

Before buying one of the best teeth-whitening kits, it’s important to ensure that you’ve selected the proper treatment for your teeth. After reading the directions and following the suggested usage, you should also take a look at the bleach concentration, which some experts say should not be higher than 10 percent. Since some popular teeth-whitening kits can damage enamel and cause teeth sensitivity, you’ll want to make sure that you’ve chosen an enamel-safe formula that prevents starting or exacerbating tooth pain and sensitivity. As a general rule of thumb, teeth-whitening kits should be avoided if you have braces, fillings, crowns and other dental restorations, but make sure to consult with your dentist to verify if your teeth are suitable for these treatments.
