Teeth whitening at home

Teeth whitening at home

Teeth whitening and teeth bleaching are in fact the same procedure. The aim is to treat the teeth in order to correct tooth stains or yellow teeth. This procedure can be carried out in a clinic, or you can use various products that help you whiten your teeth at home. Teeth whitening is based on the use of two substances that contain an active ingredient and work by leaving the teeth white: the active ingredient hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide.

Which type of teeth whitener should I choose?

Is at-home teeth whitening really possible?

Yes, it is. Technology has already produced a variety of products that, with a little patience, save you a visit to a clinic to have your teeth whitened. You will find various products with different functions to suit your needs, allowing you to whiten your teeth at home, remove tooth stains and enjoy white teeth.

Teeth whitening kit

A white smile, just like in a professional clinic

Until quite recently, if you wanted to whiten your teeth using LED technology, you had to go to a clinic. However, we have good news for you: there is now a teeth whitening kit that offers a self-contained LED teeth whitening system, which you can use in your own home in complete safety, with impressive results.

Which kit should I choose?

LED or trays

Pola Light offers you a teeth whitening kit  made up of a toothpaste designed for teeth whitening together with an LED teeth whitening device. If you prefer to use a whitening tray, you can opt for the teeth whitening kit from iWhite, Instant2, which consists of 10 trays and does not require any other product. As the trays are thin and flexible, they adapt to everyone's needs.

Whitening pen

Simple, practical and effective

A teeth whitening pen delivers its chemical components into the tooth enamel, breaking down the pigments of tooth stains into small molecules that become less visible, leaving your teeth white. The whitening pen is a simple method to use and gives fairly quick and satisfying results: cover the tooth enamel daily using the brush of your whitening pen.

 

Oral hygiene products that complement teeth whitening

Can I use a regular toothpaste?

Yes, of course you can brush your teeth with a regular toothpaste. However, if you want faster whitening with a long-lasting effect, it is best to use products that help protect the tooth enamel and prolong the white-teeth effect. The best allies for at-home teeth whitening are without doubt the products you use every day: whitening toothpaste and mouthwash. With them you carry on with your daily oral hygiene, with the added advantage of ending up with white teeth.

Whitening mouthwash

Use daily for a healthy mouth

Whether or not you are whitening your teeth, daily use of mouthwash is highly recommended, as it cleans the gaps and spaces a toothbrush cannot reach. Why not use a whitening mouthwash and get both benefits at once? We recommend rinsing daily with the alcohol-free Colgate Max White whitening mouthwash. It keeps teeth white, looks after the health of your gums and destroys bacteria.

Charcoal toothpaste

Using charcoal for teeth whitening is definitely in fashion, and it seems to work. If you want a product that helps you keep your teeth white, this is an option to use occasionally, as maintenance after at-home teeth whitening. We recommend the Curaprox charcoal toothpaste from the Black is White range, made with activated charcoal and hydroxyapatite. If you prefer a more natural range of products, you can opt for Splat, a brand of organic oral hygiene products. Its special range with activated charcoal, Splat Special Black Lotus, contains no chloride and promotes the natural strengthening of the teeth.

I have sensitive teeth. Can I whiten them?

Which products should I use?

If you have sensitive teeth and gums that bleed easily, you should pay close attention to the products and methods you use for at-home teeth whitening, so that they do not harm your oral health. Fortunately, there are now many whitening options made specifically for sensitive teeth. Products from Sensodyne or from the oral hygiene brand Vitis, for example, are a great choice, offering both whitening toothpaste and whitening mouthwash that help remove tooth stains while caring for your teeth at the same time.

Which pen should I choose?

Are there many options?

There are many options on the market. In fact, many brands specialising in oral hygiene products make a whitening pen. We suggest the White Pearl Whitening Pen, which has aloe vera as one of its active substances.

Whitening strips

A radiant smile, simply and quickly

Whitening your teeth with whitening strips is one of the quickest routes to a bright, confident smile. Because whitening strips stick directly to the teeth, they are in closer contact with the particles that cause tooth stains and break these particles down more quickly. This at-home teeth whitening method is completely painless, but it is only suitable for those looking to lighten their teeth by a few shades.

Which strips should I buy?

It has not yet been scientifically proven that activated charcoal whitens teeth safely and quickly, but we have certainly seen how well it works. Coconut oil is another ingredient widely used by those looking for at-home teeth whitening. So, if you are looking for whitening strips, a good choice is the iWhite teeth whitening kit, which is based on these two ingredients and brings together the best of both worlds.

Get a professional smile at home. In this category you will find whitening kits and toothpastes specially formulated for gentle teeth whitening.

Brands we have in stock

The Pola collection offers professional, effective solutions for at-home teeth whitening with two distinct products: Pola Day and Pola Night. Each product is specifically tailored to your lifestyle and your needs, ensuring impressive results and a radiant, healthy and confident smile.

Pola Day - Fast and effective whitening

Pola Day is an advanced solution designed to deliver fast, visible results in the comfort of your own home, similar to professional in-office dental treatments. Ideal for those with a busy routine, Pola Day requires only short sessions of 30 minutes to 1 hour, allowing you to achieve effective results without significant interruptions to your daily schedule.

Each unit of Pola Day contains a 1.3 g syringe of whitening gel with a refreshing mint flavour, enough for 1 to 3 applications, depending on the amount used in each session. The high viscosity of the gel ensures a safe, comfortable application without spills, especially when used with custom trays recommended by your dentist.

Pola Night - Comfortable whitening while you sleep

Pola Night is ideal for those who prefer a discreet and comfortable treatment while they sleep. This highly effective night gel allows extended sessions throughout the night or for periods of 2 to 4 hours, ensuring deep, even teeth whitening.

Each unit of Pola Night consists of a 1.3 g syringe of whitening gel with a pleasant fresh mint flavour, providing a refreshing sensation and additional comfort during treatment. Formulated with carbamide peroxide, Pola Night is recognised for its proven safety and long-lasting effectiveness.

Advanced technology for safe results

Both Pola Day and Pola Night incorporate advanced technology developed by Pola to ensure maximum efficacy and safety in teeth whitening. The technological benefits include desensitising ingredients that minimise tooth sensitivity, fluoride to strengthen tooth enamel, a high water content to keep the enamel hydrated, thickening agents that prevent the gel from drying out prematurely and a balanced pH for safe application.

Step by step to an easy and safe application

1️⃣ Place a small amount of gel in each compartment of the custom tray.
2️⃣ Use half of the syringe for the upper arch and the other half for the lower arch.
3️⃣ Position the trays on your teeth and press gently, ensuring full contact.
4️⃣ Remove any excess gel from the gums using a tissue, a cotton bud or a dry toothbrush.
5️⃣ After the recommended time, remove the trays, rinse your mouth with warm water and carefully clean the trays.
6️⃣ Finish by gently brushing your teeth and admire the results.
