carbamide bleach seems to come in varying strengths
like 22% and 16% etc.

Is there a sensible guideline for age, gum health
over whether a higher strength 22% or 16% is used on a patient
aside from the evident staining on the teeth.

Go with the sixteen ,,,,,,,,, the 22 may make the teeth overly
sensitive ......... (sometimes the 16 does too!).
