What are the Best Teeth Whiteners?

Do you have a family get-together or a big event you want to look your best for? A sparkly white smile is a quick and easy way to take years off and add a youthful glow. Teeth whitening is a simple process that can significantly brighten your smile, but with all the product options, you may not know where to start. This article will discuss one of our best teeth whitening products and why.

Teeth Whitening Options

There are various teeth whitening options, from over-the-counter gels and strips to professional in-office treatments like Zoom. Essentially all these options use a peroxide formula to lighten teeth, but they don't all provide the same result. Over-the-counter products are unpredictable. Some can lighten your teeth a few shades over time with their low concentration peroxides. 

Zoom vs. KOR Teeth Whitening

The other option is to schedule a professional teeth whitening. Your dentist can provide prescription-strength peroxide for more effective results. Zoom is a popular in-office treatment. Zoom uses a higher strength peroxide combined with a blue light that accelerates the peroxide's ability to lift stains for faster results.

While Zoom is an excellent product with many fabulous results, the product we love is KOR. KOR also uses prescription-strength peroxide and a combination of both at-home whitening sessions followed by an in-office session to brighten your teeth. KOR is even more powerful than Zoom. Zoom averages lightening teeth by eight shades vs. KOR, potentially making teeth up to sixteen shades lighter.

How KOR Teeth Whitening is Different

KOR is prescribed to be used daily at home for two weeks, followed by a final in-office treatment for the most brilliant results. 

Other whiteners on the market, both at home and in-office, treat only surface stains. This is why we are such fans of KOR because it can penetrate and lift stains from the inside of the tooth.

KOR is so effective it can lift intrinsic stains and discolorations on the inside of the tooth. Other products only lift stains on the outside of the tooth. 

One of the toughest stains to treat is discoloration on the inside of the teeth caused by the antibiotic tetracycline. Before KOR, the only option was to cover the tooth with veneers, bonding, or crowns. 

KOR uses prescription-strength peroxide, which is always kept refrigerated. Most gels aren't refrigerated. KOR's continuous refrigeration optimizes its performance to provide the most stunning results.

So if you want a glowing, youthful smile to look your very best, KOR teeth whitening system is worth your consideration. You will need about two weeks to achieve the brightest results. It is a product unlike any other in its ability to lighten teeth up to sixteen shades and lift discolorations both inside and out.
