8. Best Teeth Whitener
One of the best stocking stuffers for adults!
They say white teeth can make a person look up to five years younger! These disposable teeth whitening trays by Opalescence are the way to go. They’re highly effective, and depending on a person’s tooth color, they may not have to use very many trays. Keep in mind they sell in dental offices for two times the price they sell for on Amazon.
Tips:
#1 These whiteners come with a disposable upper and lower tray, and they shouldn’t be kept in the mouth for more than 20 minutes to avoid sensitivity. Only do one session per day and hold off using it the next day if teeth feel sensitive.
#2 Before using them, make sure you do not have cavities or other pending dental work. Be current on dental cleanings.
#3 Store them in the refrigerator.
#4 When whitening teeth, avoid eating dark-colored foods. Drink coffee through a straw and brush immediately after if you can. Avoid red wine. Teeth are porous during the whitening process, so be mindful the first week or two during and after whitening.
#5 Avoid whitening too often. Once the teeth are at the desired color, you might need to maintain once a year by using one tray, but of course, it depends on the person’s habits. Use Colgate Optic White toothpaste to maintain white teeth, this stuff works!
Purchase Opalescence Whitening Trays (set of 10) on AMAZON.
