There are hundreds of at-home whitening kits out there. But that bright smile comes at a price; irritated gums, damaged enamel, and mind-numbing pain. That's because their main ingredient is hydrogen peroxide. MySweetSmilesets itself apart from the pack by eliminating that harmful element and swapping it out for a safer, more gentle option. The 100-percent peroxide-free at-home MySweetSmile teeth whitening products are made with Phthalimidoperoxycaproicacid, or PAP, an organic peracid that effectively breaks down stains and yellowing without affecting soft tissue or the mineral composition of teeth, so you never fear an icy beverage again. It's used in the brand's non-abrasive powder to brush away stains, sensitivity-free strips for removing a years-worth of build-up, and precision pen to whiten hard-to-reach areas. Each product can be purchased on its own or bundled to save up to 20%.
