Wearing whitening strips is a convenient way to remove minor stains on your teeth as you go about your day. You simply apply them to your teeth and they will whiten minor stains without being noticeable to the casual observer.
Whitening strips are essentially a clear sheet of plastic that has been treated with a topical form of hydrogen peroxide. You will need to avoid drinking, eating, and using tobacco while the strips are in your mouth.
When you’re shopping for whitening strips, you should always look for the American Dental Association’s Seal of Acceptance. This logo can only be printed on oral hygiene products that have met the ADA’s rigorous guidelines for safe and effective use.
