A bright smile is the key to leaving a good impression. But have you noticed that some  of us smile without wanting to show our teeth?

Well, I chalk it up to two reasons:

1. Our teeth are stained badly with years of either smoking, drinking coffee, or wine.
2. We had just taken our meal and are not entirely sure if there are any veggies stuck in between the teeth. Better not risk it!

So you see, a bright smile, besides having healthy lips, the condition of your teeth is just as important. No one wants to see dry and flaky lips just like they do not want to see yellowish teeth nor smell that bad breath.

How do you keep your teeth healthy? How else do you whiten your teeth? How do you whiten your teeth without weakening the gum? These are just some of the common questions that were addressed during the iWhite instant teeth whitening media launch I had the privilege of attending in March earlier. I also had the opportunity to try out the three iWhite products for over a month and will be sharing my thoughts about them in today’s blog post.

Read on to find out all about it.

Personal take	:	Immediately after I received these iWhite Instant Whitening products, I was extremely excited to put them to the test! That same night after the event ended, I already started brushing my teeth with the iWhite toothpaste and then gargling my mouth with the blue mouthwash. The blue mouthwash really amazes me and is my personal favorite! It always make my teeth look so much brighter after gargling for about 30 seconds or so. Before use, you have to shake it vigorously to “activate” the triple action but it is worth it! The mouthwash is something I looked forward to using every single day. As for the toothpaste, I am glad to report that it does not have that overwhelming “fresh burst of minty coolness” like in the many commercial toothpastes out there in the market. Unfortunately, I did not quite observe any significant teeth whitening from using the toothpaste but I think it does a good job strengthening the teeth in the sense that I do experience much soreness or achiness from chewing on food or sipping icy cold beverages. Now let’s talk about the most exciting product, the main highlight of the trio, the Instant Whitening Kit. We were told that customers may use it consecutively for 5 days for 20 mins each time for an intensive whitening treatment. We were also assured that this will not irritate or cause sensitivity to already weakened teeth because the formula is safe and completely free of Hydrogen peroxide. That is quite a relief to know because using product with too much Hydrogen peroxide (in high concentration) will cause damage to the enamel of our tooth. I believe all of you are curious to know about the whitening effect of this whitening kit, so let me share a little bit more now. To be honest, it did not whiten my teeth to “8 shades whiter” like it claims to on the box. I would say that…..it whitens mine to about one, to one and a half shade lighter. Frankly speaking, I am both surprised and not surprised at it. Surprised because there is visible whitening result. Not surprised because after years and years of drinking coffee (I do not smoke at all, or drink any red wine) it is almost impossible to achieve an all-white teeth condition without committing thousands of dollars at the dental office. But since I got some visible result (no doubt it is just one shade lighter) I do believe that I can get better results in about two more intensive treatments later. Better yet since teeth will only get stronger after every usage.
Will i recommend it?	:	Yes, especially the blue mouthwash!
