Why At-Home Teeth Whitening Kits preferred
The main reasons for which you should choose a teeth whitening home kit rather than using the one at the dental clinic are:

-
Convenience: Using the Teeth whitening home kits are very convenient as you don’t have to go to the dental clinic every time you want your teeth whiter. This saves a lot of time from your day. Also you can use the home kits at your own time and place as per your convenience.
-
Speed and Success The products used by the dental clinic are almost the same as the one you will use at home. So the results will come out similar at both the places.
-
Customized options: Some of the companies offer custom made LED trays as per your teeth shape and size. Some of the companies even have whitening gel for different types of teeth sensitivities.
