This Is Why Home Teeth Whitening Kits Are A Good Idea
Getting to your dentist has never been as tricky as it is in current times, and keeping our pearly whites in pristine condition is a constant challenge.
We’ve been a nation of takeaway lovers and dining in is the new dining out. So, if you’ve noticed that your teeth are somewhat lacklustre, you’re not alone.
According to a survey carried out in February 2020, 22% of Brits said that they probably would get their teeth professionally whitened, with a further 10% reporting that they definitely would or that they already had.
In the youngest age group of 18 to 24-year-olds, 40% reported they probably would whiten their teeth.
However, dental anxiety, or dental fear, is estimated to affect approximately 36% of the population, with a further 12% suffering from extreme dental fear.
The good news is there are a number of effective options you can try from home when an appointment is out of the question (or out of your budget).
The gals at SmileTime saw a gap in the market and immediately set about meeting the ever-increasing demand for the less scary option of teeth whitening kits done easily and pain-free at home.
SmileTime claim to have whitened over 700,000+ teeth in over 15 countries worldwide since 2019 and we put the product to the test.
Read on for our review of what could be our best teeth whitening kit to try at home.
Love Island star Cally Jane Beech is a big fan
The ultra-popular SmileTime vegan whitening kit is a favourite among celebrities and better yet, it’s quick and easy to use and pain-free.
The kit comes equipped with three syringes (six applications), containing an active whitening ingredient called PAP that whitens and brightens your teeth without any pain or sensitivity. While teeth whitening at home can sound daunting, an easy-to-fill tray takes the guesswork out of illuminating your smile.
Also included in the kit is a mouth tray, LED light, and a helpful instructions card and results chart to measure the change in the colour of your teeth.
On the SmileTime website there are plenty of tips and tricks to keep your whiter teeth looking great so if you’re in doubt, have a look here.
In just 5 days, our editor Annabel’s teeth were two shades lighter after 30 minutes a day using the mouth tray and LED light.
The system has been designed to deliver results in just 15 minutes, over a course of six days’ consecutive use, so we’d advise not to miss a day.
Results will last anywhere between two weeks and three months depending on your diet and/or consumption of dark foods and drinks like alcohol and coffee. Applications every month is recommended to maintain your results.
Our verdict?
The innovative kit and genius whitening gel really deliver on the promise of stronger, whiter, and more brilliant teeth.
