These photos are only after one use!! I’ve been looking into teeth whitening for months, even years now! I went to the dentist and they told me a price of $500 to get teeth whitening! No way. I knew there had to be something out there to get my teeth white without handing over that much money. When it comes to this kit... PROS: 1. I absolutely love that you don’t have to mold the mouthpiece to your mouth prior to using. 2. The mouthpiece is separate from the light (two separate pieces) so its super super easy to clean after using. You just remove it from the light and run it under the water and dry it off. 3. The mouthpiece itself it amazing in that the way it’s built prevents the gel from getting in your mouth and gagging you (had others that didn’t have this and I barely made it without wanting to vomit from the taste of the gel) 4. The timer! Uhm, yes please. This is probably my favorite thing. I love that you don’t have to remember how long it’s been in, constantly checking the time. Turn it on, and it turns off when the cycle is complete. 5. Simplicity. This kit is super easy to use! You just put the gel on the mouthpiece and click the button, put it in your mouth. And wait. After the proper time- the light will turn off on its own and you can take it out. 6. It’s quicker than other kits in the time it has to stay in your mouth and the results seem impressive so far! Also comes with 3 syringes of gel. CONS: 1. When the gel DOES get in your mouth, it is really nasty. But that’s expected, right? 2. Does require you to use quite a bit per time (I only use half) otherwise I would go through it super quick. 3. The first time I used it it hurt my teeth (typically my teeth aren’t sensitive so I was surprised) but after the first time it didn’t hurt at all. Maybe my teeth just had to get used to it..? I absolutely love this kit. I think for the money it’s a steal. And the results are shocking. I didn’t expect to have that much whitening from just one treatment. Will definitely purchase more of the gel when I’m out and continue to use this product. Recommend this for sure. Read more
This kit comes with a 9 day supply of whitening gel even though the instructions say to do this for 7 days. I ended up doing the full 9 days, but I’ll explain how I did it at the end. There’s a trick to this and I wish I would have figured it out before day 3, but better late than never, right? It worked for me personally, but may not stimulate the same results for everyone. I would also like to add that I have healthy teeth that whiten well. Hope this helps!! **before treatment** I lightly brush my teeth with charcoal (3-5 mins). I have a jar of it that I bought here on Amazon for like $4 and it lasts forever. Charcoal helps removes stains from your teeth and removing the stains before will help the gel penetrate more effectively. Ta-da! Rinse your mouth to remove the charcoal (I use warm water because I’m impatient) and follow that with a good flossing. **time to treat** Seriously just follow the instructions. They are easy to understand and it takes no time at all. Oh and grab a little towel because if you’re like me you’ll get slobbery a few minutes before the light turns off and it will feel like eternity. Ha! **after treatment** Brush your teeth with your favorite toothpaste and you’re done. I use an ultra soft toothbrush when I do this because of the amount of brushing. I split the treatment up a bit because my gums and teeth started to become sensitive around day 6, which is normal for me, so I waited a few days before starting the last 3 treatments. Next time I will do a 5 and 4 split, but of course you can customize it to fit you. Silly me forgot to take a before photo, but I’ve had plenty of compliments. I started at solid 5 on the tooth chart they provide you, but I am about a 2 or 3 now. That honestly depends on the lighting. I’ve read a lot of reviews that the light quit working, but I haven’t had that problem yet. I will find out in a few months when I do this all over again. Overall, I don’t believe that I would have achieved the results that I did if I hadn’t of taken the extra steps, but I would probably say the same for any other whitening gel provider. This one was on sale when I purchased it, but still affordable at normal rate. Alone it would have probably gained me 1 shade, however, using the charcoal method alone would have only gained 1 and that one I know for a fact (that’s why I have the charcoal in the first place). The 2 methods together really made the difference. Read more
It works! There's a card included that I assume is meant to indicate how many treatments you'll need depending on the yellowness of your teeth. Based on which color matched my teeth best, it looks like I'll need 4-5 treatments to get the "full benefit", whatever that may mean to you based on your preferences. I've done 2 treatments so far, 2 nights in a row. I am definitely seeing improvement already, even after the first. My teeth are INCREDIBLY sensitive, I can't use strips, especially on my bottom teeth. After the second treatment my teeth felt a little sensitive, but it's nothing compared to using strips. I will probably do the next treatments every other day, just in case. I saw a lot of reviews about the LED light not working. There is a small plastic circle in between the batteries which is meant to protect the batteries during shipping so the light DOESN'T turn on and burn out before the product is received. Once you remove that it turns on fine. All of this is included in the instructions. However, this was just my experience. Overall, it's a good product and reasonably priced. I don't think I'll need to use more than one syringe to get what I need. 4 stars instead of 5 because it makes my teeth a liiiiiittle bit tender (this is just the nature of whitening though) and the taste is hardly enjoyable (obviously). Would recommend! Read more
