Dr. Zakia Dimassi Pediatrics
The main active ingredient in tooth whitening gels is peroxide; it is found in different concentrations (specified as percentages). You may need to use higher concentration, and/or use additional tooth whitening products like whitening toothpastes. In parallel, regular daily dental hygiene (brushing and flossing), avoiding factors that cause dental stains (coffee, smoking, wine. Berries, dyed foods, or at least immediately cleaning your teeth after consuming them), are essential.
If all the above measures still fail to give you the desired result, then you ought to consult your dentist to get tooth bleaching in the clinic, wwhere more advanced techniques (laser fixation of tooth whitening products) give better more guarantee results.
