Whitening Lightening-Dial A Smile Review
Disclaimer: This blog is not sponsored by Whitening Lightening. This was my review based on my personal experience with the product.Hello Bittys! I am back this week to discuss my thoughts about a home teeth whitening kit that I had discovered, Whitening Lightening's Dial A Smile. I had heard about this kit so much, and because of my dental background, I was very intrigued and wanted to try this out for myself to see if it really worked.
I must admit, I am a former smoker. I haven't smoked for about 7 years. I am also a coffee drinker, like many, I am addicted to Starbucks coffee as well as Dunkin' Donuts iced coffees. Even with all that, I don't have yellow teeth, and my teeth are pretty white despite the circumstances. I suspect annual visits to the dentist and regular dental cleanings, along with good dental hygiene help me out a lot.
With that said, I would always hear about the Dial-A-Smile kit from Whitening Lightening. So I took took to YouTube to watch user reviews. I also read up on it online, and visited their Whitening Lightening website to view the prices. The kit I bought was the Dial-A-Smile kit and teeth whitening pen combo. It retails for $115 (plus tax and shipping), but I found a discount code using "smlx0combo" that brought it down to $59 (plus tax and shipping, making it $65 overall). It ships from California, but yet I received the package fairly quickly.
The set up and application process was fairly straight forward and to the point. It came with pictures of step-by-step instructions and all the materials needed. It was fairly easy to put on, and once you put the mouth piece in your mouth and turn on the blue curing light, you wait for 20 mins. I found that it was fairly comfortable having the mouth piece in. My initial concerns were that I was going to drool, or it would drop out of my mouth because my mouth would get tired. However, I didn't have any issues with the process. My teeth and my gums were not sensitive during the process, or afterwards. I was a shade 6 at first, and afterwards, I compared my teeth to the shade chart and saw I was a shade 3. So it took me 3 shades whiter.
To say the least, I was very pleased with my results. I was a skeptic like most, and I knew I would have been upset if it did not work. Three shades lighter after my first application. The kit comes with 3 teeth wipes, as well as 3 Vitamin E swabs, so I'm assuming it's supposed to last at least 3 applications. Although I know I can get more than 3. It did not take much to coat my teeth with the whitening gel. So I'm a little disappointed because it only came with 3 teeth wipes, and 3 swabs. I'm wondering if I can substitute the Vitamin E swab with something else, or if I would truly need to purchase more on their site. Which they do not sell the swabs separately, you would have to purchase a refill kit at $49-$78 so that is very disappointing.
So is it really worth buying?
Bottom line, I honestly think that yes, it is worth buying. Despite the price and the lack of refill items, it is worth it. I do suggest that you find a discount code to help make it friendly in the pockets. You would be spending more on teeth whitening visits at the dentist, and kits you purchase at the local stores like Walmart, Walgreens, CVS, Target, etc. Even though I thought it was a little pricey, it gave me awesome results and it really works. It literally only took 20 mins with one application. Imagine the results after 2 more. The boosting pen is also nice because you can apply it every night for 14 days. It doesn't take much to apply on your teeth, unless you have huge chiclet teeth or something. I tried the teeth whitening strips from drugstores, and found that this was way easier to apply at home. It was only once, and for 20 mins. You can carry on at home and 20 mins will fly by. Unlike other teeth whitening items, that you may have to apply twice a day for 14 days. I found that this was quick and easy, and gave better results. For a true teeth whitening system at home, that is way cheaper than having multiple visits to the dentist for whitening treatments. It's also cheaper thinking of the overall cost.Bitty Dental Hygiene Tips
- After the 3 applications, I would just budget to purchase a refill kit. Then do the whitening once every 3-4 weeks.
- Follow up with using a teeth whitening tooth paste, along with some teeth whitening mouthwash if you really want to have white teeth.
- Remember this though, a super white smile does not look "natural". So don't go crazy with it, and a white smile does not necessarily mean that you have great teeth.
- You should still follow up with your dentist, get regular checkups and dental cleanings. Brush twice a day, and floss every night.
