Today, there are two primary types of in-office
bleaching - light-activated bleaching and non-light
activated. Light-activated procedures shade
improvement in 60 minutes with the use of a laser or
LED-powered light.

Non-Light Activated bleaching systems eliminate the

light and use advanced bleaching gels with a variety
of procedures

  There are various advantages to in-
office treatment as opposed to other forms of teeth
whitening. Dentist-administered whitening procedures
permit higher concentrations of bleach and can
assure proper bleach contact with teeth - improving
the chances of maximum whitening. In Deep
Bleaching especially, a new mouth tray technology
actually seals the bleaching agent to the teeth
overnight, creating the highest bleach/teeth contact in
any available method.

The results of in-office whitening can last
up to several years. Usually it lasts for about 3-4
years, although Deep Bleaching has been known to
last 5+ years. Some people have reported the loss of
one shade in about 6 months. However, maintaining
the color is easy by using recommended toothpastes
and mouthwashes.

In-Office treatments are painless for most, but may

cause transient sensitivity post whitening. It would
last for 2 ± 3 days. This can be taken care off by
using a desensitizing toothpaste or mouthwash as
prescribed by the dentist.

Home Tray Whitening is tooth whitening in a kit that can

be used at home. A custom-fitted tray is created to fit
each arch of your mouth. When you are home, you fill
the trays with a peroxide bleaching gel and place them
over your teeth. Use the gel for recommended time by
the dentist.. During this period, dentists check for any
sensitivity to the gel.

If the teeth start staining again, re-touch bleach will help
restore teeth to a whiter shade.

Over-the-counter teeth whitening toothpastes are the

most popular whitening products. The success of any
teeth whitening technology lies primarily in the amount of
time the teeth are in contact with a bleaching agent - and
the concentration of the bleaching agent being used.
Since toothpastes contain a very low concentration of
bleach and remain on the teeth for mere minutes - or
even seconds - they deliver only a small degree of visible
change under ideal circumstances.

The companies that

manufacture these
whitening pastes do
not make false claims,
and consequently,
promise only modest
whitening results.

Almost all the whitening

toothpastes work on the
same principle. They use
hydrogen peroxide or
other whitening agents in
very small quantities to
gently remove surface
stains caused by tea,
coffee, wine, etc.
