Whitening toothpastes do not contain bleach. Instead mild abrasives remove surface stains, but do not change tooth color.

Does using hydrogen peroxide as a mouth wash work?

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).
