How is it different to the whitening systems you can buy in the supermarket?
Whitening kits sold at supermarkets and pharmacies have limited effectiveness, for two main reasons. Firstly, the concentration of whitening agent in ‘over-the-counter’ kits is lower and less effective than that in dentist-supplied kits. Secondly, the generic mouthguards found in supermarket/pharmacy kits usually fit poorly, causing leakage of the whitening product into the mouth instead of holding it against the teeth.
How white will my teeth become?
Most people’s teeth whiten by between 2-8 shades. Results vary between individuals, and depend both on the starting shade of the teeth, and the cumulative amount of time spent using the whitening kit.
Is it safe?
Yes! It will not soften enamel or existing fillings. The primary ingredient (hydrogen peroxide) has been safely used in teeth whitening for over 100 years and is recognized as an effective whitening ingredient by the dental community.
Will it make my teeth sensitive?
The majority of our clients experience no sensitivity. The whitening produce in the kits we provide is the very best available, and unlike many other brands of product, is gentle and contains ingredients specifically designed to prevent tooth sensitivity.
