Over-the-counter whitening products

Go Smile may not be right for you.
Over the counter bleaching products have small to average results. The trays are usually not custom made which is really my main concern. I dont want to swallow all that gel because of a sloppy tray..Get your dentist to make you trays custom and buy gel from him or her..Best way to do it..!
