Well, I've looked at several brands of teeth whitening strips, and the ingredients are amazingly simple. In fact, the only active ingredient is hydrogen peroxide, which you can get at the drug store fairly cheap. So, I was wondering, is there any reason why I can't just swish with hydrogen peroxide to whiten my teeth? If that's, for whatever reason, not a good idea, would it be okay if I made a weak solution of hydrogen peroxide and water? All I'm really wondering is if this would be corrosive or otherwise damaging to my teeth. I have no doubts that it would be effective.
--------------------
Over the counter hydrogen peroxide is not strong enough to whiten teeth. That is why it will not work. The hydrogen peroxide and other variants of it found in teeth bleaching products are much stronger. Hydrogen peroxide will not damage your teeth and will not whiten them either.
