Whitening Toothpastes use abrasives to remove surface stains and to prevent the build-up of future stains. Mouthwashes aren't abrasive because there is no brushing away of stains involved in the mouth wash process. Whitening toothpastes can be effective but they will only remove existing stains and won't actually "whiten" your teeth - they will just reveal your natural whiteness that may have been covered up by stains - whitening mouthwashes however will be much less effective because they aren't abrasive in their stain removal.

if you want to physically whiten your teeth then you need to have professional whitening treatment, such as dentist prescribed teeth whitening strips, whitening trays, or in-surgery (chairside whitening).

Why does hydrogen peroxide foam when you put it on a cut?

There is an enzyme in your body that breaks hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2). These are gases that form bubbles in the water from the hydrogen peroxide and fluids from your body. The idea is that this cleans wounds by getting under the dirt and other particles before being broken down. Then the bubbles lift the dirt and grime out of the wound to wash them away easier.
