Does anyone know the baking soda treatment that equals 5 min teeth bleaching gel?

No such thing: I'm sorry to tell you, but use of baking soda will not ever be as effective as professional bleaching gel. Here's the best formula--get your teeth cleaned of any external stains or buildup, then have them bleached by your dentist in his/her office or with take home trays. This system will work best.

Never heard of it: I have never heard of a 5 minute teeth bleaching gel. Brushing with baking soda will polish off surface stains, but it is too abrasive to use daily. The best teeth bleaching solution is dentist made custom trays and dentist prescribed bleaching gel.

No: Baking soda doesn't whiten teeth.
