This No. 1 bestselling whitening pen 'worked better than a visit to my dentist' — and it's 50% off

More than 26,000 shoppers give this genius tool a perfect five-star rating.

If you have a sweatshirt that says, “But first, coffee,” you probably also have stained teeth. We get it. There's nothing wrong with being a java junkie or even advertising it on your clothes, but when it's evident every time you smile, well, that is not a good look. If you’ve tried all the whitening strips, trays and toothpastes on the market but haven't been able to get your choppers gleaming, the VieBeauti Whitening Pen might be for you, especially now that it's only $15 (down from $30). That comes out to just $5 per pen!

The pen is mightier than the strip, especially if the latter contains chemicals that may hurt your gums.

Why is this a good deal?

We've never seen the price of the top-rated VieBeauti Whitening Pen 3-Pack drop lower than this! Save a whopping 50% now — since a single pen is equivalent to 14 regular teeth whitening strips, you're already saving big bucks when it comes to whitening your teeth.

Why do I need this?

If your smile isn't as bright as it used to be, these at-home whitening pens may be a way to get around the hassle — and considerable expense — of professional whitening treatments.

The pen uses a brush tip applicator. Simply twist the bottom to release the gel into the brush, spread the whitening gel on your teeth, and let it sit for at least 20 to 30 seconds while smiling. After this, you may relax your lips, but avoid eating or drinking for the next 30 minutes. That's it!

The pens are safe even for those with dental sensitivity and can be easily used on the go too. Since this pack comes with three pens, you can keep one in the bathroom, one in your purse and one at work for anytime, anywhere whitening.

What reviewers say

"This worked better than a visit to my dentist!" raved one of the 26,000-plus shoppers who gave the VieBeauti pen a five-star ratings. "I like everything about this whitener. Easy to use, comes in threes so I can travel with one and results are better than I had hoped!!"

Another happy user reported: "No tingling, discomfort or negative side effects. Just gorgeous white teeth for a fraction of the cost from the dentist."

"I'm a big coffee drinker, and I noticed my teeth were getting a bit discolored," said a satisfied reviewer. "I know in the past my sister said she paid a lot of money to have her teeth whitened by a professional and she said it didn't make much of a difference... I looked at multiple products and decided on this one. I am so glad I did! I love this stuff so much that I bought more of it when I ran out."

Another java lover shared, "These 67-year-old teeth have just reason to be yellow from years of coffee. I was surprised how easy this was to use, and that I actually did see results ... without any sensitivity."

"I've used professional whitening gel purchased from my dentist before, and the sensitivity it caused was so bad, I had to stop," said a satisfied user. "I feel like I'm getting about the same results with this gel without that sensitivity, so I couldn't be happier."

Some shoppers did say that they didn't love the taste while they used the gel in the trays, but that since it's in for such a short time, it wasn't a dealbreaker.

If you have sensitive gums, reviewers say this is the whitening system they use the most.

If you still prefer to go the whitening strip route, Crest has your teeth covered (literally):

These whitening strips make your teeth up to six levels whiter in just 10 days using the same ingredients dentists use. They're safe on your enamel and shoppers say they will leave you smiling.

"Can't believe the difference in such a short time. I used them four consecutive days before getting composite bonding done and I went up two shades of white," shared this happy reviewer.
