In a hurry? Here are the best products at a glance.
One of the best ways you can whiten your teeth at home is to add the best teeth whitening mouthwash to your regular oral care routine. There are a lot of different options out there, each with slightly different ingredients but all promising to do the same thing: whiten your smile. We researched some of the top brands and highest rated products to help clear up the confusion. Let’s start with some of the key features you should know.
Package Size: These bottles range from 8 to 32 oz. Typically, if you used twice a day, 16 oz will last about a month. If more than one person in your family is using it, obviously it won’t last as long.
Pieces: Some of these come in multipacks so you can buy in bulk if that’s what you like to do. You can get 3 or 4 bottles at a time and have a supply on hand that will last your family for months.
Fluoride: You’ve probably been using fluoride your whole life but do you know how it works? It doesn’t actually prevent plaque buildup. Rather, it protects your enamel from the effects of plaque build-up, adding cavity protection to your mouthwash.
Alcohol-Free: You can most likely tell when you’re using a mouthwash with alcohol because, well, it kind of burns. The alcohol does serve an important function, though. It works as a carrier to get the active ingredients into hard to reach places.
Flavor: Most of these have minty flavors, though they vary from fresh mint to clean mint to natural mint. Some of the more natural options have flavors that are more neutral and not quite as intense.
Activated Charcoal: Activated charcoal has a variety of uses. In fact, it’s sometimes used medically to absorb ingested poisons. Basically, it attracts toxins and other bad things, including whatever is staining your teeth. Don’t worry, it’s FDA approved for teeth whitening.
Now that you know the main things to look for, let’s get to our whitening mouthwash review. Here’s the deal. Our top and budget picks are right at the top of the list. That way, even if you’re in a hurry, you can get a good look at them. That’s really the best way to see the range that’s available.
