We can almost bet that most people have heard of, used, or had a family member/friend who has used a Teeth Whitening Pen. But just what are they and how do they work?
There are many Teeth Whitening Pen options out there, so in this article we break down the basics, explain how they work, the differences between them and provide our top professional Teeth Whitening Pen recommendations.
How do Teeth Whitening Pens work?
A tooth whitening pen is a pen that contains a whitening solution that can be easily applied to the teeth to help remove stains and discolouration quickly.
Teeth Whitening Pens are one of the most convenient ways to freshen up your smile – they are a Ready to Go, simple solution to whiten your teeth on the go, anywhere or anytime.
Unlike teeth whitening strips and toothpastes a whitening pen is portable enough to fit in your purse, pocket, gym or work bag.
Many people absolutely love teeth whitening pens as they allow them to easily target stains by simply painting or brushing the whitening solution contained in the pen onto the desired teeth.
As always, for best results, we recommend using a Teeth Whitening Kit with Custom Fit Whitening Trays.
Depending on the brand Teeth Whitening Pens can vary in:
1. Solution
Teeth Whitening Pens are usually gel or serum based. Gels are usually a viscous consistency – much like a tooth whitening gel syringe refill. The serums set to form a thin coating which cannot be removed as easily and are more saliva resistant.
2. Ingredient
This depends on the brand and usually contains a teeth whitening ingredient composed of Hydrogen Peroxide, Carbamide Peroxide, PAP+ or other active ingredients. Usually, the higher strength the quicker the wear time and whitening effect.
3. Applicator
A brush or pen is used to either paint or brush the whitening solution onto the teeth. This varies between brands and preferences usually come down to the user with whitening effects being equally effective whether a brush or pen is used.
How to Use a Teeth Whitening Pen
Teeth whitening cannot get simpler than using a teeth whitening pen!
Whilst the application process may vary slightly between brands, usually it takes only a couple of seconds to complete.
1. Brush, floss, and rinse.
2. Pen Applicator: Remove the top cap, twist the bottom of the pen until gel is administered.
Brush Applicator: Coat the brush tip with whitening solution by gently pushing the brush tip in and out of the solution.
3. Apply a thin layer of whitening solution to each tooth surface – ensure the entire tooth surface is in contact with the solution
4. Don’t rinse, eat, or drink and leave for the recommended leave on for the recommended time
How effective are Teeth Whitening Pens?
Teeth Whitening effectiveness varies among individuals and really depends on a variety of factors including the type of stain and tooth structure. Teeth whitening pens usually whiten yellow stains well, however, grey, or white stains do not tend to lift easily when using a tooth whitening pen – in such instances we recommend seeking professional advice to discuss the best whitening option suited for your individual circumstances.
Saying this, when using a Teeth Whitening pen correctly you should see quick results, usually within 3-7 applications, sometimes quicker. As always if you are looking for a significant boost in colour and brightness, we suggest using a professional home whitening kit or having an in chair treatment completed at our Gold Coast Studio.
