16th May 2011 - Everyone feels more confident when they are happy with their teeth. White teeth help build your confidence and you will portray happiness through your smile.

The cost of Teeth Whitening can range from several thousand dollars for professional treatments to less than one hundred dollars for a DIY home whitening treatment.

Kits that are dispensed by your dentist can have a stronger solution of the bleaching agent than you might be able to purchase over the counter in a diy teeth whitening kit. Your dentist’s kit will consist of a tray that is custom made to fit your teeth exactly. This type of tray costs minimally one hundred dollars alone. A custom fit tray has the advantage of achieving whiter teeth as the bleaching agent will remain in contact with your teeth and not bleed out onto your gums or be diluted by your saliva. Custom trays also help prevent the bleach from irritating your sensitive gums.

In both kits from your dentist and diy teeth whitening kits you purchase locally on online the bleaching agent may be pre-loaded in the trays or be in syringes that you apply just prior to use. One advantage of the dentist prepared solutions is that he can custom mix the concentration and can add a desensitizing agent as well.

It is recommended that you use a teeth whitening system for two weeks every year with touch ups every four to six months consisting of a day or two of treatment.

So, realistically what can you expect to pay for your diy teeth whitening kits? Popular kits that contain a six percent solution of hydrogen peroxide normally costs from two to four hundred dollars. You apply and wear overnight or for a couple of hours a day if you are sensitive to the peroxide.

You can find other options that cost from one hundred-fifty to two hundred dollars with the option of having your dentist provide you with the gel refills. Gel refills may cost up to fifty dollars. Many of these types of diy teeth whitening kits are used for thirty minutes to one hour a day and come in a variety of pleasant flavors.

Whitening strips are a DIY Teeth whitening system that is the lease expensive to try. These kits use flexible film instead of trays to dispense the bleaching product. You can wear these at any time during the day or night without them being noticed. Their disadvantage is that they are less effective and saliva can dilute the strength of the bleach and irritate your gums as well.

The cheapest DIY Teeth whitening methods include brush-on whiteners, toothpastes and whitening dental flosses. While they may help with mild cases of surface stains they will not be very effective on stains that have penetrated the enamel of the teeth. Brush-on whiteners are great to carry in your handbag for when you drink red wine or other staining foods as you can treat it before it has a chance to penetrate into the enamel.
