Whitening Mouthwash
Lumineux is the leading choice for consumers seeking whitening without sensitivity. It uses Dead Sea salt, aloe vera, and coconut oil to break up stains and soothe gums without the use of harsh peroxides.
Quality & Materials
Uses a proprietary blend of essential oils (Lemon peel, Sage, Peppermint) and Dead Sea salt. No artificial sweeteners or alcohols.
Evidence & Testing
A double-blind clinical study published in the British Dental Journal (BDJ) Open showed it was as effective as traditional brands for plaque and gingivitis without the toxicity.
Brand Transparency
Information on sourcing is less detailed than RiseWell, but they are transparent about their clinical trial results.
Value Assessment
Mid-range pricing. Good value for those who specifically want whitening benefits without the chemical trade-offs.
Why Not Alternatives?
Traditional whitening mouthwashes use hydrogen peroxide which can damage the oral microbiome and cause tooth sensitivity. Lumineux is clinically proven to be non-toxic and microbiome-safe.
