How does hydrogen peroxide work for teeth whitening?

Hydrogen peroxide is a weak liquid acid that possesses oxidizing properties which make it a prime bleaching agent. It is a well trusted, inexpensive solution often used in methods of teeth whitening as it can be found in tooth pastes and mouth washes. Hydrogen peroxide is recognized to be a safe and effective method by many dental associations.

How can hydrogen peroxide be used for teeth whitening?

Hydrogen peroxide teeth whitening can be achieved through various processes. The typical method involves mixing baking soda with a small amount of hydrogen peroxide (3 to 10% in manufactured teeth whitening products) to form a thick paste substance. Regular tooth paste can be added to the mixture to give a more pleasant taste. Then you can proceed to brush your teeth with the mix (once or twice weekly - replacing use of regular tooth paste).

or - there is the regular mouthwash method of rinsing your mouth with a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution after brushing, and this can also be employed alongside brushing with the hydrogen peroxide mix. Do not swallow the solution and always be sure to rinse your mouth with water to rid any residue of solution. Slight tingling or discomfort may be experienced but should dissipate once all of the solution has been rinsed from mouth. Any intense discomfort would be extremely rare, but contact your dentist if irritation to gums or teeth persists.

How effective is the use of hydrogen peroxide as a teeth whitening agent?

Hydrogen peroxide is a renowned bleaching aid and has far superior results to any teeth whitening tooth pastes available. There are numerous ready-made solutions available on the market, but why waste money when you can safely create your very own solution at home?
