How to choose a teeth whitening pencil

The selection of a whitening pencil should be entrusted to the dentist. This is necessary, since the active substance that is included in the composition has a very aggressive effect on the enamel and can lead to irreparable changes.

Basic rules that will help you choose the most effective and least traumatic teeth whitening pencil:

  • the percentage of the active substance (hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide) must be indicated, the choice should be made in favor of a lower concentration. This will not give an instant visible effect, but will not cause serious damage to the enamel;
  • additional substances (fluorine, xylitol, activated carbon) are an advantage and allow the enamel to recover;
  • it is better to buy a pencil in a professional store, so there is less risk of falling for a fake;
  • you should not buy cheap pencils, as they usually contain the simplest substances that cannot bring any benefit.

The whitening pencil is not a substitute for professional whitening by a dentist.
