Home White Strips vs Office Zoom Whitening

Everyone wants the bright and pearly white smile in their mouth, and these days you can get it without a dentist. Go to your nearest drugstore and you will find many different brands of teeth whitening strips and products.

Dentists agree that whitening strips do whiten teeth, but the main question is also how white do you want them to be and how fast? For them to be effective you must keep up with the maintenance and use them every night. This may all add up at the end. For fast and instant results a local dentist is the bets option.

If the strips are placed on your gums they may end up causing sensitivity in your teeth and gums.
