Billion Dollar Smile LED Teeth Whitening Kit

Product Information

The gel also contains hydroxyapatite, a mineral that’s found in teeth and is in some toothpastes to remineralise teeth when they’ve been damaged. The idea of including it in a whitening kit is that it helps repair any damage done during the whitening process. Hismile is another popular kit that includes this protective ingredient. To whiten teeth, the Smile White formula uses a combination of 16% carbamide peroxide and hydrogen peroxide. It has gone through rigorous testing and been found to cause absolutely no damage to gums or dental bone structure. Some also contain gentle polishing granules to help buff the teeth enamel, just be careful to look for ‘non-abrasive’ on the label, as you don’t want to damage the surface enamel with anything that’s too harsh."

Pre-made tray: This is the poor man’s version of the custom lightening tray – in that the process is the same, but the tray isn’t fitted to the exact shape of your mouth. Provided you can cover the entire surface area of your teeth with your tray, it’s a good compromise. If your teeth are a little crooked, though, you may not get an even result.Snow also take their use of technology to the next level. Just like Billion Dollar Smile’s USB powered light, Snow can draw power from your smartphone. Where Snow have excelled is designing an app that will help you monitor your whitening journey. Even more, technology is available with a wireless charging option for Snow, too. The mouth guard is where you place the whitening gel. It’s a fixed-shape tray so you don’t need to go through the process of moulding it to your teeth, which can be fiddly. However, depending on the size of your teeth or jaws you might find it a loose or tight fit.

Whitening toothpastes: These work harder than regular toothpastes to remove stains and plaque. To achieve this, they may contain a mild abrasive or bleaching agent, while others contain activated carbon. You can use them in conjunction with other home kits. LED gel kit: The LED teeth whitening light won’t make your teeth whiter, but it will accelerate the teeth whitening gel and make it more effective at breaking down tough stains. If you don’t have the custom-made tray created to your exact mouth shape, the LED light is good for reducing the amount of time the gel has to stay in your mouth. In the UK, teeth whitening kits can be bought over the counter but only if they contain less than 0.1% hydrogen peroxide.

What is the demand for natural ingredients for cosmetics on the European market? March 2022. https://www.cbi.eu/market-information/natural-ingredients-cosmetics/what-demand [Accessed December 2022] The light can be charged using a range of power adapters that work with most smartphones, with one charge lasting 16 minutes There are various substances derived from nature that can be used for whitening effects. Papain, for example, is an interesting enzyme found in raw papaya fruit. It disrupts the biofilm on the teeth and gums, helping to dislodge bacteria and staining compounds. In doing so, the enzyme increases the amount of light that is reflected off the tooth, hence making it appear lighter and brighter. Bromelain – an enzyme extracted from the juice and stem of the pineapple – has a similar impact on the dental biofilm. Studies have found products containing papain and bromelain to provide significantly better luminosity and stain removal compared to those that don’t.

The other side of it is exorbitantly expensive surgical treatments that only the likes of Simon Cowell can afford.
