It's not as sensitizing as white strips can be, plus you can rest easy knowing it's natural
Photo: Courtesy of the Retailer For as long as I can remember, I’ve actually looked forward to dentist appointments. I proudly wore braces for years, still have my retainer — even though it’s been years since I last wore it — and embrace biannual cleanings with the same gusto that’s led me to become a collector of travel toothpastes . The one dental treatment I have never been able to get behind, however, is a professional whitening.
The first thing my eye for a bargain noticed was its price tag of $16, about half the price of a pack of ten Whitestrips. The second thing I noticed: The stuff, made with activated coconut charcoal, had more than 1,400 reviews on Amazon . A deep dive into the comments revealed that users praised its “almost immediate results” and ability to make teeth “two shades whiter after one brush.
Since then, I’ve dialed down my usage to every other day, without noticing much change in my teeth’s whiteness . I’d never thought I’d say this, but the powder’s got me hooked. $14 at Amazon Buy $14 at Amazon Buy More Strat approved at-home whiteners Opalescence Go 15% Kit $69 New York cosmetic dentist Edward A. Alvarez told writer Lori Keong that Opalescence Go’s whitening kit, which contains hydrogen peroxide, yields “results that are almost as good as [those of] custom bleaching trays.”
