The Klear Action® Whitening Light blends high-quality whitening with easy home operation. This remarkable scientific breakthrough can get your teeth up to 6 shades whiter. Tooth whitening systems similar to this have been used in dental offices for years! Now, Klear Action® Whitening Light is available for a fraction of the cost - in this 'at home kit'. The special activator light is scientifically engineered to trigger the ‘photo initiator’ in the Klear Action® Whitening Light gel. It does this through a patented, easy to use method you can do yourself in the privacy of your own home!

Rinse with the Accelerator to prepare your teeth for stain removal 2. Brush on the photo sensitive Whitening Solution 3. Use the Activator Light The whitening solution combined with the safe, specially designed blue wavelength light goes to work immediately; not only dissolving surface stains, but penetrating the teeth to erase those top embedded stains.

I like it
6/20/2008 - Lacey of ma, usa writes:
I'm using it right now, I'm on my eigth application and my teeth are already at least 4 shades lighter. Mind you each application merely consists of rinsing, brushing on the solution and shining the light at your teeth for two minutes. What is the big deal with that? Do something to entertain yourself, while you do it, like write a review on the product lol. Currently on my 8th application...I started out at shade 6 now I'm between 2 and 1. White strips make you drool, the dentist is expensive and invasive. It's relatively quick and more comfortable and private then the other options, you can't talk with white strips in your mouth and white strips do irritate me gums and cause sensitivity in my teeth. I think this is a great product. No irritation to report I'm now on my tenth application..
Product Did NOT Work
6/19/2008 - April of GA, USA writes:
I bought this product for my mom. She has very noticeable discoloration of her two front teeth from consuming coffee. After using the product for 1 week it DID NOT work. Her teeth did not even become ONE shade lighter. So I thought maybe the discoloration to my mother's teeth were too severe for the product to work effectively. So I used the product on my teeth. First, while I sat there holding the light to my teeth, I began to slobber profusely. Secondly, my lips completely dried out and cracked. Lastly, after cracked lips and slobbing into a towel for a week, it did absolutely NOTHING for my teeth. A complete waste of time and money.
Worked for me
4/26/2008 - Brenda of New York, USA writes:
I found that this product worked very well. Perhaps it was because my teeth were very white to begin with, but my teeth are SPARKLING now. I have only done 12 applications over a couple of days, because its time consuming and boring, but every time I do a couple more, I definitely notice a difference. I got it for $40 at [], which was the same price as []. When I tried whitestrips I didn't notice a fast enough change and they made my teeth very sensitive, so I foudn that this was a much better way to spend my money on a whitening product. I don't know if perhaps the product has been made better over the past couple of years, as I see here that many of the reviews are old, but I am very satisfied with it.
It worked fast for me
12/27/2007 - Trudy of Nebraska, USA writes:
I drink tea so my teeth were stained. I had a big event to attend and didn't have two weeks ..or the time for crest strips (which have worked for others in the family). So I purchased Klear Action and used it 8 times over a two hour period the afternoon of the event. Each application takes about 4 minutes (including rinsing, brushing on the gel and using the light). I would do 2-3 applications, then take a break. It worked great! Lightened my teeth about 4 shades. The process was easy and fast. I recommend this product.
Trash & customer service stinks!
12/12/2007 - Penny of Indiana, USA writes:
I bought this product yesterday @ [], went to use it this morning, and one of the bulbs blew before I even got to use it one time. The replacement bulbs are $14.95, so I thought customer service would be happy to replace for free...not so! The customer service rep told me to take it back to place of purchase, which would be fine, but that is over an hour away from me, so it would be about a 3 hour trip, and with the cost of gas, that's a little expensive. Customer service sucks, and I would not recommend this piece of trash product to anyone.
Somewhat Successful
12/7/2007 - Devin of Delaware, USA writes:
I wasn't sure which product to purchase, however, since this was the most expensive one on the shelf in Walgreens, I thought perhaps it might have value. I did about 20 applications over 2 days and noticed about 3 shades brighter than before. I would say this product does work. Just try not to get it on your lips or gums if you can help it. It will burn a little bit. Afterall, it is a bleaching product. I'm looking for more like a 5-6 shade difference. I'm not a smoker, but my stains are from braces when I was younger, coffee, soda, and maybe beer. My teeth aren't that bad. But if you ask me, my overall opinion is that for $40.00 for enough supply to lighten your teeth 2-3 times, I'd say we should be able to do a little bit better. But it's not a bad product. It works well enough to satisfy the average person. But I can see by these reviews, that people are really picky. If you're looking for a 2-3 shade difference, this product is for you. If you want something much better, than you'll have to keep searching. I hear Crest strips are excellent judging by the reviews. I hear Rembrandt, to my surprise, was not so good. I always found Rembrandt toothpaste top of the line. The best I've ever used. Since using Rembrant toothpaste 8 years ago, I haven't had 1 cavity. Not one! I used to get 3-4 a year. No joke. But Rembrandt toothpaste is expensive. If I remember correctly, about $10 a tube.
It worked/NO instant gratification
5/1/2007 - Labros of Maryland, USA writes:
This product actually worked for me WITHOUT instant gratification. 1. There was definitive numbing of lips even after 1-2 applications so I never did more than 1-2 at the time. They should have a warning against multiple uses. I am sure it can hurt lips/gums. 2. I used 2 tablespoons of mouthwash for 30 sec-1 min. I think this is more economical and practical. Also I do not know if repeated uses should require repeated mouthwashes. 3. The tooth color index that they sent is a joke. All the shades were yellow. 4. I could see from the 2nd application that this product worked for me at the time that I was applying the whitening gel. Parting thoughts: 1. Not all teeth have coloration from the same sources. Mine are from food (coffee, tea, etc.). If my stains were from other sources I do not know if the product would be effective. 2. Whitening strips are a good alternative.
Total Garbage
3/26/2007 - David of Queensland, Australia writes:
This product is total garbage. Don't even bother. They dont tell you that you need to make 15+ applications to see any results, and even then it is barely noticeable. I think the light idea is a total con too. All the machine is, is a white LED light with a blue tinted platic infront of it. Light from a candle would be more effective. Save your money and visit the dentist or buy tooth whitening tooth paste instead All of these "Bright Light" products use chemicals containing peroxide, which can be bought at any chemis/drug store for about $5
Actually worked for me...
2/11/2007 - Crissy of Ohio, USA writes:
After reading this page first, I did some things differently. I rinsed longer than ten seconds each time, I put vaseline on my lips to protect them, I held my mouth open w/ my fingers while applying the solution. I used the light in a dim room where the only light hitting my teeth was blue. This process took forever and was v. boring but it worked. It's not even as easy as the infomercial makes it sound. My teeth are at least three shades whiter and they are not hurting at all from the process. I am super sensitive to whitening products and this didn't hurt my teeth. I was impressed by that. My tongue got burned by the solution so I recommend to keep your tongue on the roof of your mouth when using this. The company should have mentioned these things so that more people would have a positive result w/ the product.
Kleen Action does just a s good as Peroxide on Tee
6/23/2006 - San of Illinois, USA writes:
Not only did I not see results after applying the product 20 times the first time and 20 times the second time, my gums did in fact burn after about the 10th aaplication in each case, and the "whitening" effect was insignificant. Having used Peroxide over the years to whiten my teeth,I found the same effect with Kleer action, for obviously a lot more money. I think the informercial is very misleading and does not tell the consumer in all cases you must apply at least 20 applications to see any results. In addition, both my daughter and I, who also purchased the product, came to the same conclusion that this product was overrated, the infomercial was clearly deceiving, and important information in the brochure was not addressed in the infomercial,thus leading to deception on the part of the advertiser; Thane, Inc., the distributor, and the "inventor" of the product.
Don't waste your money or time

Product did not work, had to use too many times within a certain amount of time to get no results except burned swolled gums. Sent back to get reund.
Loved it & still do.
11/1/2005 - Camellia of Florida, USA writes:
I can't speak for anyone else but I am very satisfied with the product. I did not have any injuries to my gums or my lips. The instructions are very concise and it made the product very simple to use. I have no complaints and will be sending my re-order form in soon. As an added benefit, it gave me the push I needed to stop smoking.

Does not work
7/20/2005 - Kelli of Pennsylvania, USA writes:
Dont waste your money. I just tried this and I dont see a difference. Plus my bottom lip swelled up a few minutes after the treatment and was still swollen the next day.
SCAM
7/12/2005 - Deb of Minnesota, USA writes:
This product does not work as good as just swishing your mouth with hydrogen peroxide. The light itself is not made to hold the batteries tight, so you have to giggle it around to make it work. What the light actual does is beyond me. Then, they kept taking money out of my account for additional shipments I did not order, they refused to refund my money. Bad company, rediculous product, that does not work. They said the peroxide in it was 5-7%, which I highly doubt. You can buy 3% at the drug store for $ .50 cents.
