You’ve seen the ads – social media is flooded with influencers holding up teeth whitening pens, gels, and strips. The message is clear: whiter teeth are just days away, and all it takes is a $30 kit and a mirror. Sounds great, right? For many Frankston locals watching their wallets, it’s tempting.
What DIY Kits Don’t Tell You
Many over-the-counter whitening kits use generic trays or strips that don’t conform to your unique smile. This leads to patchy results, and in some cases, the gel may spill over onto your gums, causing irritation or pain.
Some products contain strong acids or harsh chemicals, which could strip your enamel if used too often or improperly. And once enamel is gone, it doesn’t grow back. That means the bargain kit you used for whiter teeth could leave you with long-term sensitivity or discolouration that’s hard to fix.
When ‘Cheap’ Turns Into ‘Costly’
While a $25 kit might seem like a win, think about the repeat purchases, extra toothpaste for sensitivity, and, eventually, a dental appointment to fix what went wrong. That’s not to mention the frustration of spending money and time on something that didn’t work.
Professional whitening provides better results and saves money in the long run by avoiding damage, repeat purchases, and uncertainty.
