How to make your teeth white fast at home

Achieving a whiter smile is something many people strive for. 

It can make you look younger and healthier, and give you a confidence boost, improving your overall quality of life. 

But how can you achieve the look you want without visiting a dentist?

Today, we’ll look into all the ways you can make your teeth look whiter - from cosmetic treatments to at-home options - giving you the pros and cons of each. 

Dental veneers

Veneers are an effective way of improving the entire look of your smile. After removing a small amount of enamel, and fitting tooth-coloured shells to the front surface of your teeth, you’ll be left with a functional and beautiful smile. 

However, this isn’t a treatment that can be undergone at home - it requires specialist dentists to prepare and fit dental veneers. It’s also a pretty long process, with most fittings taking over 3 hours.    

If you have the budget and time, dental veneers are a great option, but not everyone can make frequent visits to the clinic, or want to undergo the discomfort of such an invasive procedure.  

Teeth whitening 

Teeth whitening is a common cosmetic dental treatment all over the world. 

If people are happy with the overall shape but want to improve the shade, professional teeth whitening is a great way to give you a little boost for a special occasion. 

However, it can be expensive to have it done in a clinic and isn’t the most convenient option. It also requires a thorough oral hygiene routine to maintain, with advised limitations (like avoiding coffee and red sauces) to keep the look of a bright white smile. 

At-home whitening 

Whitening teeth at home is pretty popular and comes in the form of toothpaste, strips and gels. 

Many customers have seen great improvements using at-home methods, lifting stains and other forms of discolouration. 

However, they’re not advised by dentists. 

Teeth whitening strips often contain high levels of peroxide that are too high for the average person. And, without following the instructions properly, the majority of customers aren’t aware of this and experience sensitivity with continued use. 

It’s common for customers to use at-home whitening products too often, causing damage to the teeth and gums. Not only does this cause short-term sensitivity, it can cause long-term pain and gum irritation, with some experiencing lasting damage to their overall oral health. 

Clip-on veneers 

Clip-on veneers are perfect if you want a full smile transformation without the hassle of making a trip to the dentist or dipping into your savings to cover the high cost. 

Not only do they give you a white smile, but they also disguise any other dental concerns you may have, including misalignment, chips and missing teeth.
