Top 5 Teeth Whitening Accessories That Boost Whitening Results

Most people when they think of whitening their teeth assume it’s just a case of using some whitening gel or whitening strips and it’s a job well done. Whilst that will undoubtedly improve the whiteness of your smile, the real question is how do you maximise your teeth whiteness, and furthermore, how do you sustain that maximum whiteness indefinitely?

The good news is that it’s easier than you think and the answer is that, with the right teeth whitening accessories, you can go on to have a beautiful white smile without the constant need to use more harsher teeth whitening products.

In this guide we run through the top 5 teeth whitening accessories we recommend if you are looking to maximise your teeth whiteness. The even better news is that nearly all the products can be purchased for under £10 which is amazing value to help sustain your beautiful white smile.

1. LED Light

People who have had their teeth whitened by professional dentists will remember the industrial LED light they used to help give you teeth extra whiteness post treatment.

The good news is you don’t need an industrial sized LED light to get similar results at home or in the office, a hand-held LED light can be just as good, is small and easy to store and does not require mains power.

2. Whitening Pen

How many times have you been on the go, whether in work or out with friends and you quickly notice in the mirror your teeth aren’t exactly gleaming the way you want them too.

The only problem is, you can’t use teeth whitening gel or whitening strips as they are too fiddly, take too long to work and are not exactly great to have a conversation with.

Enter the teeth whitening pen. These teeth whitening products are perfect for quick touch-ups which means you can get back to that beautiful smile in less than 5 minutes.

3. Whitening Toothpaste

It goes without saying, if you want to have beautiful white teeth then you’re going to need a good dental hygiene routine, and that of course means you need a good whitening toothpaste. The only problem is, there are so many whitening toothpastes on the market, it’s hard to choose which one is right for you.

When it comes to whitening toothpaste, those with hydrogen peroxide or sodium peroxide are the most powerful and will give you much better results (just be mindful to read the instructions so you only brush the correct amount of times per day).

4. Remineralisation Gel

One of the key concerns people have when using teeth whitening products is the effects it has on the teeth. More specifically, does it cause damage and sensitivity to the teeth?

Obviously, high strength teeth whitening gels and strips need chemicals like hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide to help remove tough stains and improve whiteness, and this can cause teeth enamel damage and sensitivity if overused or handled incorrectly.

The answer is remineralisation gel. This gel acts as a post-treatment product. The gel is formulated with active minerals to help replenish tooth enamel and reduce sensitivity making it perfect for those with sensitive teeth.

5. Dental Floss

Just like with whitening toothpaste above, no dental hygiene routine can be a good one unless it contains dental floss. Whilst not essential to the actual process of whitening teeth, dental floss is a great way to prevent plaque and stain buildup which makes whitening teeth a lot easier and more effective.

Plus, dental floss is one of the best ways to prevent gum disease and tooth decay meaning not only is your beautiful white smile protected, your teeth and gums are too.

Conclusion

Whether it’s the first time you are whitening your teeth or you have whitened them multiple times before, knowing what accessories are out there can really help boost your results.
