Whitening Mouthwash: Does It Work?

It is tempting to think that using whitening mouthwash will give you a substantially whiter smile. Unfortunately it is unlikely to make a substantial amount of difference. This is because whitening mouthwashes contain a tiny amount of bleach, the active ingredient used to whiten teeth. The concentration of bleach is too low to result in any significant changes to the colour of your teeth and mouthwash is only in contact with your teeth for a very brief period of time.

Consider Professional Tooth Whitening for Real Results

Using whitening mouthwash shouldn’t do your teeth any harm, provided you follow instructions, but if you would like to see a significant change to the colour of your teeth then it’s best to think about professional tooth whitening.
