Sir K, I wonder if hydrogen peroxide rinsing is also a problem, because you clean your mouth and then rinse with water. These whiteners, on the other hand, would deposit H2O2 on your gums, where it would sit for some time, allowing the free radicals.

Hey, Attalus, does this extend to H2O2 gargles -- and what about toothpaste like Mentadent??????
Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) is a quite potent source of free radicals, and I do not recommend using it in a prophylactic manner. Put it on an open wound, sometime, and watch it destroy any fibrin or blood that is around. We use it extensively in surgery just for that purpose, which we term debridement. It is implicated, also, in the genesis of atherosclerosis ("hardening of the arteries") Definitely, it should not be swallowed. I am not familiar with Metadent, but my comments would apply to it if it conatins hydrogen peroxide.
