Noting a yellowing smile? While there are many in-office treatments that your dentist can provide to boost your brightness in a flash, at-home whitening is quick, easy, and can offer some pretty dramatic results, too. Whether you’re in-between appointments or just starting your whitening journey, dentists sound off on the at-home products that you should be reaching for first.

Atlanta cosmetic dentist Ronald Goldstein, DDS says the best teeth whitening system is the Opalescence Tooth Whitening System ($30). “This consists of specially-fitted home bleaching trays made in our office and then we decide on the proper bleaching strength, from 10 percent to 35 percent gel, to fit into the trays. This is the most efficient way to home bleach. Another alternative is to bleach in the office and then take home the trays with the proper strength gel for maximum whitening.”

“Crest Whitening Emulsions ($50) just came out last year and it’s extremely innovative,” says San Francisco cosmetic dentist Swati Agarwal, DDS. “You simply swipe it on the teeth and go about your day, without having to worry about any strips or trays. It works really well and has super white results with minimal sensitivity.”
