The Best Teeth Whitening Products You Can Buy In 2022

You can drive around in a gold-plated Bentley, wear a suit tailored by Jesus Christ himself and have abs with more definition than the Oxford English Dictionary, but if you curl your mouth to reveal a set of sweetcorn tusks, it will all be for nothing.

Hey, we know it sounds harsh, but it’s a cruel old world out there – especially for blokes with a demonstrably slender grasp on oral hygiene. So, what can you do? From the glaringly obvious to the intriguingly lesser-known, the dentist-recommended to the seriously ill-advised, there are a variety of ways to whiten your teeth. But in the interest of safety and because our lawyers say so, let’s focus on the ones that won’t result in a trip to the hospital.

While in some countries it’s relatively easy to buy dangerous, corrosive chemicals and slather them all over the inside of your mouth, in most, there are rules and regulations to prevent such a thing from happening.

“EU law states that the percentage of hydrogen peroxide allowed in tooth whitening or bleaching products should be no more than 6 percent,” says Dr Peta Leigh, a whitening specialist at London-based Elleven Dental and Orthodontics. “Products that use higher levels of bleach can cause [permanent] damage to your teeth.”

That’s EU law, though. Presumably when Brexit kicks in, we’ll all be allowed to gargle radioactive toilet bleach until our gnashers are glowing and our throats are bleeding. But for now, we’ll have to stick to the rules. (Disclaimer: do not gargle toilet bleach – even after Brexit.)

To get your smile up to scratch, these are the teeth whitening products you’ll need to make it happen, without poisoning yourself or ending up looking like Ross Gellar in that one Friends episode.

Hold the front page, this just in: you need a toothbrush to clean your teeth. It may seem obvious, but you’d be surprised at how many guys are quite content ‘cleaning’ their gnashers with a scabby old scrubber.
