Colgate Teeth Whitening Review

Introduction

Colgate has long been synonymous with good oral hygiene. It now has many products as part of its range that users can purchase to safely whiten their teeth in the comfort of their own home. They include ‘Colgate Max White Overnight Teeth Whitening Pen’ which can help you whiten your teeth as you sleep. Currently, the pen is available in pharmacies and over the counter at many stockists in the UK. However, many of Colgate’s other whitening treatments are available online for purchase, like its Optic White Pro Series LED which has an LED light accelerator that allows for even greater whitening coverage.

• Flexible and low cost way to whiten your teeth at home

Benefits 

The overnight pen is an innovative product that varies in comparison to other teeth whitening gels and trays, which is the traditional method of whitening teeth. The pen allows you to click a small drop of product onto the pen's brush and apply a thin layer of it to your teeth. Once it is dry, you can let it do its own thing while you sleep. The pen gives you 35 nightly treatments if used correctly, so there is a long time to build up to the colour of white you want for your teeth.

If you can get hold of the Optic White LED light accelerator, you’ll be pleased that there is no mess due to its exceptionally precise way of applying treatment to the teeth. It is smudge proof and concentrated hydrogen peroxide so it's highly effective. However, it is also enamel safe and has been designed so that users should not suffer from tooth sensitivity. On top of all that, if a user remembers to conduct their treatment every day for 10 days, they only need to sit with the LED light on their teeth for 10 minutes a day. The treatment aims to polish away surface stains for good so that customers see a real difference in their teeth colour.

On top of all this are products that will help users keep their teeth white when they are not undergoing intensive treatment. That includes toothbrushes, toothpastes and mouthwashes. The majority of these will all be available at a UK supermarket, pharmacy or toiletry outlet. While whitening toothpastes have been around for a long time now, the new generation of whitening toothpastes from Colgate have to be seen to be believed. For example, Colgate’s Elixir White Restore Whitening toothpaste promises to remove three times more surface stains than a regular fluoride toothpaste.

The entire suite of whitening products ultimately allows a person to achieve results in a way that works for them and should prove long lasting too with the right management.

Conclusion

While a big drawback for UK customers looking for Colgate’s most sophisticated LED whitening system is that it is only available if you import it, the rest of the company’s products are widely available for purchase. That’s great news as, when used together, they can add up to a material difference in your teeth. The whitening pen on its own can have a big impact on the whiteness of your teeth and diminish any yellow colouring or stains so that you are no longer embarrassed to smile. So, when used with Colgate’s post treatment products, like its toothpastes, a user can look forward to a lifelong white smile.
