I Tried These Teeth Whiteners for Women Over 50—Here’s What Actually Works
The Best Teeth Whiteners for Women Over 50
I write a lot about skincare and makeup, but today I’m talking about something we don’t always mention: our teeth. Our smile is one of the first things people notice. Years of coffee, red wine, and laughter have left my smile looking less than sparkling. If you’re in your 50s or beyond and want a whiter smile without sensitivity or expensive treatments, you’re in the right place. I’m sharing the best teeth whiteners for women over 50 that actually work, and some are even dentist-approved.
The Teeth Whitening System by MOON
The issue I have with previous teeth whitening systems is that they take so long to use, and I end up slobbering profusely.
The Moon Teeth Whitening Device is much easier to use since it uses dissolving whitening strips and only takes 5 minutes to use. I’ve been using it when I do my skincare routine at night. My dentist friend told me that it was the best time since you wouldn’t be eating anything until the next morning.
Marvis Whitening Toothpaste
I’ve just started using the Marvis Whitening Toothpaste. I saw it on my social feed last year, and I tried to order it then, but it was all sold out. I’m anxious to see if it is as good as all the posts I’ve seen about it. I will say, the taste is very good.
Waterpik Sonic-Fusion 2.0 Professional Flossing Electric Toothbrush
Okay, this isn’t a teethwhitener product, but it is one of my favorite products for teeth health. I started using the previous version of this Waterpik, and I loved it! My teeth feel so much cleaner after using this. When I dropped my water container and cracked it, I immediately ordered myself the latest version. I can’t imagine not using this daily.

Verse Of The Day
James 4:17 (NIV)
17 If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.
I’ve used Crest whitening straps many, many times over the years. They always worked good!!! I didn’t realize there were so many products out there😃
😊
Love the info. I’ve used Crest Whitening strips several times in the past and have always noticed a difference.
I’ve used Crest 3D White Strips for a could of days every 6-8 months for over 20 years. They really work! I first used Marvis toothpaste about 2 years ago. Of all the Marvis ‘flavors”, the original mint is the best. My husband ordered more Marvis last week!
(I’m almost alarmed to say I only scored 30 on the dental word game. 😁)
Do you feel that the Moon teeth whitening device works the best and really whitens?
I feel like it did whiten, but it only goes so white, and then seems to stay at that level.
Found it!
I love the videos. I look forward to your emails!
🙂 Thanks for the information. I have used Crest strips and it worked for me.
😀40
45…. Not sure what I did wrong. LOL
Moon… out of stock, again!!
I recently added the mouthwash to my routine. I like it.
I checked to make sure they were in stock before I posted, but y’all must have cleaned them out.
Cute game. Got 45. Last one was tricky.
Good information.
I didn’t know much about these products, so this information is very helpful! Got a 40 because my internet went off in the middle of the of one of my answers. Got to love technology!
: )
45…the last one made me think
😊 45. The last word gave me some trouble! Lol
😊I’m curious about the Marvis toothpaste. Scored a 40 on the quiz.
🙂 Good info. I use something from my dentist, but these are great options! Scored 50
50! 😅
😊I had no idea about many of these products, thinking I had to suffer with overnight bleaching and sensitivity, I may try the two Crest products. TY
Enjoyed the game.
will have to study more about the best whitening procedure for me.
☺️ I love word games!
who knew there were so many ways to whiten your teeth? Will definitly need to re-read. Thanks for doing the leg work! 🙂
😊 thanks for the information. I’m interested to try the first one you wrote about.
😊 Thanks for this. Can you share what works best in a different post? I want to try the Moon.
Thanks for all these suggestions. I do love my Waterpik—don’t know what I did before I had that!
I feel like yellow teeth are a HUGE sign of age. I’ve noticed my teeth aren’t as white as I’d like. I’ve used a few things that have made my teeth more sensitive, so I’m always hesitant. Thanks for the list of products to look into!! As for the game, I got a 50! Yay! I love word games. 🙂
Could not answer the 4th one. 🙁 I use Crest 3D whitestrips
45, but should’ve been 50 lol, I couldn’t get some of the letters to “push”
Fun game
😊 50 out of 50!! Thanks for the info on teeth whitening. I’m convinced that whiter teeth make a person look younger!
🙂 I have used the Crest whitening strips for years along with their toothpaste and mouthwash. They have worked so well a dentist brought another patient is to see how well they worked on my teeth. I can really recommend them.
Love this topic! Whiter teeth sure do complement all our skin care and makeup efforts. I thought my teeth were beyond help. A few months before my daughter’s wedding I went to the dentist, ready to do something extreme, like veneers. He recommended I try over the counter bleaching products. I was not optimistic, but now I’m happy to say I was wrong. I had great results with Crest 3D Whitestrips! 😁
PS: The word game was fun! 50/50
45 out of 50. Thanks for sharing.
Great options.
I’ve recently thought about trying to whiten my teeth. I didn’t realize there were so many products to choose from. I didn’t see my score for the word game. I got through 4, then it reloaded. We do a word game every morning!
Fun game – my score was 50. LOL
May have to try the mouthwash.
Love the banana split with Joe story! Fun game, tricky but a 45. Thanks for sharing those whitening products.
I love word search games! Scored 45. I just bought the Lumineux strips. Hoping they work.
Ok, did not find the 🙂 after about 100 scrolls, but did find many great options for tooth whitening. And I enjoyed the word game. I got 50. Have a great day!!
Enjoyed the game. That was fun. Need to work on my spelling. LOL! 40/50
Didn’t find :), will look later. Ony 40 out of 50, I messed up the first one trying to rearrange letters.
🙂 Thanks for all the recommendations on teeth whitening.
45 was my score.
I try especially in the summer to whiten my teeth. Looks so great with a tan!
45. The last one was tough!
😊 Thanks for showing these teeth whitening products. I have a special made tray and whitening gel from my dentist but don’t use it like I should. My score was 45 on the game, I enjoyed it.
I got a 45. I’ve been interested in options for teeth whitening so thank you for the post.
I scored 40. That was fun. I use bleach from my dentist
45 out of 50! Whoohoo!!
I will try one of these whitening tools. thanks! 🙂
45 darn it took awhile cuz I can’t seem to beable to spell!!!
Lol! Same!
Moon looks interesting ☺️
Couldn’t find the smiley face today and I couldn’t get the game to work for me. I like that you included a water pick because my hygienist suggested I start using one.
Did not find the 🙂 but did like the game. Scored 40.
🙂 A lot of options that I have never heard of before. I haven’t had much luck with the ones that I have tried so I might need to try one of these.
Fun game. My score was 30. Lots of good options today.
My score was 45. I have very sensitive teeth so I am hesitant to try whitening
😀
Whitening
Thanks for all the info.
🙂 45
Wow! I didn’t realize that there were so many options. Thank you!
I’ve been trying the Optic White toothpaste and it works just okay. Tried a purple toothpaste before this one (forgot the brand) and I think it worked better. I’d like to try the strips that don’t affect the enamel. I’m a tea drinker, so I’m always using a stain fighter.
I like the game! I scored 45.
I got a 50 on the game but full disclosure….the last two had me so stumped I think I took to long and my tablet had to reload. When the game loaded again I was able to answer quickly😂. Really enjoyed this
