I've read around that nitewite is the best. Is there a product that is equally as good, and cheaper, possibly? I also tried looking for the 10% but only found the 22%. I read online that I shouldn't try to bleach too much or too often so I was trying to look for a lower percentage. Thank you!
Answer: Many bleach brands work well
I would steer clear from online sources of bleach, as they are poorly regulated and there is risk you aren't getting what you thought. The best method is to purchase from your dentist so you know what you are getting and they can monitor for any collateral damage. It is very safe, but some abuse CAN occur.
I like Nite White.

Answer: Teeth Whitening With Invisalign Trays
Teeth whitening can definitely be accomplished using your Invisalign trays. You can get the bleach in different concentrations of peroxide. The 22% concentration is the best if you do not have sensitivity with your teeth in general. If you will wear them for 5-7 days for approximately one hour each session you will get a great result. Good luck.

Answer: Whitening during Invisalign
NOT A GOOD IDEA! Invisalign is a great orthodontic process that uses thin, clear, retainers to move the teeth. It is a 24/7 procedure for many months. Whitening is a short term procedure. Overuse of these gels can potentially cause damage to the tooth and will probably cause a substantial sensitivity problem. Although most dentist supplied whitening gels are safe to use in the aligners, the temptation to overuse them is great.
When our patients come to the end of their Invisalign treatment, we will often provide a complimentary whitening gel supply to use during the last two weeks of treatment with their final aligner. The patient gets a great looking and bright smile and the office prevents overuse of the whitening product.

Answer: Whitening Under Invisalign Works Try Liquid Smile with your whitening trays. I use it 2 times a week-It can whiten, maintain whitening, keeps bacteria in check and helps your breathe. Other whitening products work as well.

Answer: There are Lots of Great "Tray" type Teeth Whitening Products
You really dont have to look too far to find a product that will work. Some are available at your local pharmacy and others you can get from your dentist. There are also some teeth whitening companies online that make whitening products that deliver results as good as many of the professional products you can get from your dentist. Nitewhite is good and will provide great results. The Best product depends on what exactly is most important to you....cost vs. speed of whitening vs. sensitivity issues vs. ease of use, etc.
The lower percentage gels can be used for longer periods of time safely. If you are planning on using a higher percentage bleaching gel, I would recommend using it for a smaller amount of time and not leaving it in over night. Some products are only designed to be used for an hour or so at a time.
The biggest issue that causes bleaching to become problematic is the gel touching the gums and "burning" them. The lower percentage products are less likely to do this and cause sensitivity. It is very unlikely that you would damage your teeth using whitening products, unless you used them everyday for extended periods of time.
All the Best.
