Dial-a-Smile Professional Whitening Kit

Hey guys

Today I'll be reviewing the Whitening Lightning Dial-a-smile home whitening kit. (:
I have been dying to whiten my teeth cause.. mmhmm, my teeth are so yellow and I can't stand it.

It is priced at USD99 but I bought it on sale for a 1 for 1 at USD69.

That does not include the standard shipping price of USD9.50.






What Whitening Lightning's Dial-A-Smile claims to do:




Dial A Smile is our best-selling kit that includes a syringe of our famous whitening gel, an advanced and sensitivity free formula that gives you dramatic yet safe results. You will also receive teeth wipes to polish and prep for the gel, Vitamin E Swabs to protect your gums, and an innovative LED light that activates the whitening gel. After 20 minutes you will be on your way to the smile you’ve been dreaming of.




So I tried it out on the day I received it which is 16 December 2014. It was sent out on 4th December 2014.

After Procedure:

^It did not go down drastically by 3-4 shades^

^Did not seem any whiter than it was but abit. Maybe it is psychological, I don't know^

^Before^

After

I think that it looks the same but this is just 1 treatment and my teeth are badly stained. I'll finish all 3 treatments and see how it goes.

I also think another factor affected the result which was that I was very sparing in the gel.

Only used 0.3mil since I thought I just had to cover my teeth.

Then I realised that you can only use it 3 times so why save up the gel?

I'm going to use a lot more gel in the next session and hopefully it will work out better.

I think that the taste was kind of bad but compared to the Whitening Pen that I purchased from them before this treatment. I made sure that I did not lick the gel while brushing my teeth.


Taste: 6/10
Effect: 4/10
Overall: 5/10

Update (April 2nd 2015, this post was made on January 29 2015):
I have done all 3 treatments and I could say that I am mildly unhappy about it.

It is mainly due to the reason that it did not work very well. It could be that my teeth are too build-up with plague that it is unable to whiten my teeth.

It did look a bit whiter by 1-3 shades but after 2 months, it looks like it has gone back to the original shade.

I have decided to go for scaling and cleaning at a private dental clinic.

After I have cleaned my teeth, I will
