Whitening Lightning Review


I recently purchased this Dial A Smile Professional Teeth Whitening Kit from Whitening Lightning. I had seen a few other reviews of these kits and it was on sale for around $40 so I figured I would give it a shot. I am totally guilty of drinking too much coffee, tea, and other "staining agents" and had some very high hopes for this kit.

When you first open the box this is what it looks like….

Then you empty the rest of the contents and you have all of this…


This kit comes with pretty clear instructions but there are a few steps. Initially you want to use the dial to determine the yellowness of your teeth. Honestly, I found this difficult to do on my own and it probably would help to enlist a second opinion so you can see what results you obtain. This is important so you can tell if your teeth are legitimately whiter when the 20 minute treatment is up.

When you are ready to start, you use the teeth wipes to dry your teeth, followed by the vitamin-E swabs to protect your gums. At that point you put some of the whitening gel in the provided cap and brush it on your teeth. Then its time for the blue light, 20 minutes and you are good to go.

A word of absolute caution, when you are ready to remove the light you definitely want to be over the sink. A lot of saliva generates during those 20 minutes! TMI I'm sure but seriously.

In all honesty I was not sure if this kit actually worked or not on the first go. They say it brings you up 3-4 shades on the dial but I would say more like 1-2. I used it again 7 days later and think that in total my teeth are probably 4.5 shades whiter than before I used the kit. You get 3 treatments out of the gel so I would say this kit is worth a try! There is no sensitivity like you have with white strips and it is an easy process. If you follow Whitening Lightning on Instagram they are constantly posting coupon codes so be sure to check there before purchasing!

Have you tried this kit or any other great whitening products?

  1. I actually think it's probably best that your teeth didn't whiten so fast and it was a slower process...I think it's less harsher on the enamel of your teeth!! But it sounds like a great kit and for three whitenings it's totally worth the price!! xo, Biana - BlovedBoston

  2. I think so too, it claims to lighten 4-7 shades in one use but I don't think that's the case and it would be frightening if you went 7 shades in 20 minutes. But I am sure it depends on what has stained your teeth etc.
