In accord to the medical special terminology "teeth bleaching" is usually used only when the teeth should be whitened beyond their natural color. So this term strictly refers to products that contain bleach — hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide.At that time the term "whitening" is not the same sort of thing.
