there isn’t…very few people see back teeth..I don’t know of anyone I know that says smile, I wanna see your back teeth.
Nope, home kits only work marginally—-you know that
No just professional trays .,
Bleahcing is only for cosmetic purposes and the front side of your teeth is enough thats why they havent manufactured products that bleach your lingual side.

Bleaching material is not suppose to whiten the back teeth the reason is because the further back the material is the greater the chance you will swallow it and whitening material is not to be swallowed.
Whitening pens can also work on back teeth
You should get a whitening kit with thermoforming trays that cover your back teeth as well. Bear in mind that trays in home kits are generic and the fitting will not be as good as one’s you can get made at your dentist. This means that there may be a chance of uneven whitening. Also, the whitening gel in off-the-shelf kits will not be as effective as those you can get from the dentist so whitening by several shades may not be achieved. Normally you only whiten up to your pre-molars (smile line) so 4 to 4, although I have done 5 to 5 and occassionally pop a bit of gel for my first molar teeth.
Alternatively visit your dentist for a good scale and polish…tea and coffee staining will be removed to some extent and you may find you don’t need to ‘whiten’ your teeth.
It all depends on what your expectations are and how white you want your teeth.
