Best material for tray whitening
There is no best system for tray whitening. Bleaching is time and dose dependent. I get this question asked a lot from my patients.

10% Carbamide peroxide in a thick gel is best for Tray teeth whitening
There are several brands that make whitening gels for trays. They are all effective. The ingredient with the longest track record is Carbamide peroxide. It comes in 5%, 10%, 15% and even 35%. The higher the percentage the faster the teeth whiten but the more sensitivity can develop. 35% is designed to be used for 30min a day. Whereas the lower percentages are designed to be used overnight or for a few hours per day.
I have been using the Ultradent product called Opalescence since...
