The options are endless when choosing a teeth whitening solution that’s best for you. Some kits offer LED lighting, while others promise immediate results.
Luckily, Auraglow has considered all these preferences to build a brand that has something for every kind of user. Auraglow is made in America and offers a 30-day, risk-free trial period for all of their teeth whitening products.
Their best-selling Teeth Whitening Kit is only $59, notably less expensive than competitors. It comes with an LED mouthpiece, charging device, and whitening gel. According to Auraglow’s website, over 5,000 happy reviewers agree this kit offers the best the industry has to offer.

Auraglow Whitening Kits come with the following:

After using it once, I felt that my teeth lightened significantly. However, the kit did not come with a shade identifier, making it difficult to track my progress.
The brand also encourages users to try the product daily for 7 days before evaluating their results. Thankfully, I did not experience any sensitivity while using the kit, even on consecutive days.
Storing the kit in my medicine cabinet was a breeze, a plus for apartment living.
I used the Auraglow Teeth Whitening Kit three times, though the results were visible after my first 30-minute session. The images below are the before and after of my smile.
I brushed my teeth, as advised, before opening the kit for the first time. I was impressed by the amount of whitening gel in the initial kit.
The LED mouthpiece fits more comfortably than other mouth trays I’ve tried recently. I set the timer and almost forgot a tray was in my mouth. After rinsing my mouth and the plastic side of the mouthpiece, I could store everything in a compact travel case.
Before trying the Auraglow Teeth Whitening Kit, the edges of my bottom teeth appeared a little yellow from forgoing whitening treatments for a few weeks. I was very satisfied with the brightness I saw after only three uses.

What I don't like:
Start your whitening process by brushing thoroughly for 2 minutes. Once done, follow these steps:
According to Auraglow, “In general, we've found 30 minutes to be the ideal amount of time for balancing whitening results and sensitivity. If you develop sensitive teeth, we recommend trying 15- or 10-minute sessions, or space the whitening treatments out with a few days in between.”
Instructions for each product are provided on their website and come with each product. Auraglow recommends using the whitening kits for 7 to 14 days in a row for the best results.
Teeth whitening results vary from person to person. But results can last up to three months with proper oral hygiene and limiting staining foods and drinks.
According to a 2021 study, the added benefits of LED light in the whitening process include accelerating the bleaching process and attacking more stain compounds than peroxides alone.3
Some of Auraglow’s products don’t come with an LED light, but it’s no wonder the brand’s best-seller includes the added boost.
Yes. AuraGlow products are safe for tooth caps, crowns, and veneers. However, remember that the restorations will not whiten like your real teeth. Do not use Auraglow’s products on dental braces, as whitening will be uneven, messy, and uncomfortable.
The star ingredient in Auraglow’s products is carbamide peroxide. Carbamide peroxide is a compound composed of urea and hydrogen peroxide.
Auraglow's products have 35% carbamide peroxide. This percentage is scientifically proven to yield effective results with only transient sensitivity.1
Auraglow states, “Carbamide peroxide is one of the most commonly used at-home whitening ingredients. It's generally safer because it breaks down slower than hydrogen peroxide and causes less sensitivity for most people.”
Propylene glycol is the third ingredient listed on Auraglow’s Whitening Gel.2 It's a substance that absorbs water and is found in many medications, cosmetics, and foods since it helps preserve moisture and dissolve other ingredients.
According to Dr. Khushbu Aggarwal, one of NewMouth’s in-house dentists, “though some consider propylene glycol to be abrasive, many studies suggest that whitening products containing silica have a higher relative dentin abrasivity, a measure the FDA uses for dental products.”
“Typically, if the product is more abrasive, it is more likely to remove stains but also more likely to wear away enamel and dentin over time,” Dr. Aggarwal adds. “Auraglow doesn’t list any silicas in its gel formulation.”
Auraglow’s whitening gel also includes peppermint oil to provide the classically minty flavor we’ve come to expect from dental products. Carbomer gives the gel its spreadable consistency, making it easy to apply to whitening trays.

Rating by Alyssa Hill
Most AuraGlow customers see results after the first treatment. However, they tend to see more noticeable improvements after three to five treatments. AuraGlow also claims to whiten your teeth without pain or irritation. Customers mention minimal to no sensitivity, which is a common side effect of other leading teeth whitening brands.

Common questions regarding AuraGlow products:
AuraGlow products are not FDA-approved (but all of the ingredients are). The products are also made in FDA-approved facilities.
Reviews show people experience less sensitivity with AuraGlow because of their enamel-safe formula.
For best results, whiten your teeth for 7 to 10 consecutive days. Once you reach the desired whiteness, wait about 2 to 4 weeks after full product use to whiten again. More information is listed in the detailed instructions for each product.
AuraGlow products are not recommended for children under 13 years of age, pregnant or nursing women, and people with braces.
A teeth whitening gel is safe for dental restorations like crowns, bridges, implants, and veneers. Remember that dental restorations will not whiten or change color like natural teeth.
AuraGlow recommends waiting at least 1 hour before consuming any food or beverages. This is because your teeth become more porous after whitening, making them prone to stains.
For best results, whiten your teeth after meals (with long gaps between) or before bed.
No. Teeth whitening treatment, whether at home or professional, is never covered by insurance. These treatments are cosmetic (not medically necessary).
