How To Get Whiter Teeth For Your Wedding

For many brides, a whiter smile is a wedding-day priority. There are endless options out there, but you can always count on Colgate – the number-one brand dentists recommend for toothpaste. From its clever whitening pen to its LED kit that enhances results, its innovative products have you covered. To prove it, we enlisted SL beauty contributor and bride-to-be Rafeeka Khan to showcase the results…

#1: Max White Ultimate Radiance Toothpaste

Promising to reverse up to 15 years of deep-set stains, this is Colgate’s most popular whitening toothpaste to date. Clinically proven to work, it’s gentler than similar iterations on the market and promises to strengthen your teeth and not wear away at the enamel. It’s full of what the brand calls ‘optic brighteners’ too – these reflect the light for fresher, healthier-looking teeth immediately. If you have white teeth already and simply want to refresh them, this and the pen may be enough for you, but the brand recommends using all three alongside the LED Whitening Kit for the brightest effects.

IF THERE IS ONE PRODUCT THAT MAKES THE WHITENING PROCESS EASY IT’S THE MAX WHITE TOOTHPASTE WHICH HAS ENSURED MY GUMS ARE HEALTHY AND KEPT ANY FURTHER STAINS AT BAY THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS.

#2: Max White Ultimate Overnight Whitening Pen

As the name suggests, you brush your teeth at night, dry them slightly with a tissue and then apply this before lights out. With a serum texture, it quickly latches onto teeth and dries fast, locking in the brightening formula to overhaul your teeth. It has enough formula for up to 35 nightly treatments – which you’ll find is more than enough to see results. Apply the serum to each tooth and wait for a few seconds for the film to form before you move onto your bottom row of teeth. Consistency is key, but you will start to see results within weeks. This can be used on its own – making it a great, low-maintenance option – or alongside the LED Whitening Kit for more visible and lasting results.

COLGATE’S OVERNIGHT WHITENING PEN IS SO INNOVATIVE. I USE IT WITH THE LED KIT FOR MAXIMUM RESULTS, BUT YOU CAN APPLY IT SOLO DEPENDING ON THE RESULTS YOU’RE AFTER.

#3: At Home Whitening Max White Ultimate LED Whitening Kit

Using LED light technology to break down stains, this clever kit activates teeth-whitening agents – like the gels included within the pen – to make them work faster for brighter, whiter results. The process is simple: apply the pen to each tooth, let it dry, then plug the LED device into your phone. From there, you let it do its thing for ten minutes. The device even shuts off after that period, so you don’t need to worry about losing track of time. Avoid eating and drinking for 30 minutes after using this device. You can keep it on overnight for better results – just be sure to sweep away the dried serum post-use.

ITS LED WHITENING KIT HAS BEEN GAME-CHANGING FOR ME. I’VE BEEN USING IT DAILY ALONGSIDE THE WHITENING PEN. WITHIN WEEKS I SAW FEWER STAINS AND MY TEETH WERE VISIBLY WHITER
