#81: Teeth Whitening: Myths Vs Facts

Are you whitening your teeth the right way — or falling for viral myths?


Teeth whitening is one of the most requested cosmetic dental treatments — but also one of the most misunderstood. As a cosmetic dentist and host of The Wonder Tooth Podcast, Dr. Radwa Saad shares the truth behind common whitening myths and which methods actually work.

Types of Teeth Whitening Treatments:

  1. In-Office Whitening: Professional treatment with immediate results, up to 8 shades lighter in 1 visit. Perfect for big events.
  2. Custom Take-Home Trays: Dentist-molded trays for gradual, safe whitening at home.
  3. OTC Whitening Strips: Good for minor stains but less effective than professional options.
  4. Whitening Toothpaste: Removes surface stains only. Great for maintenance.
  5. LED Whitening Kits: Popular online, but often overhyped. Ask your dentist first.
