Tooth Whitening
At Home
This is the procedure of making teeth whiter, and therefore more attractive.
It involves having impressions taken from which laboratory fabricated custom vinyl trays are made. A carbamide peroxide gel is placed in these trays and the trays with gel are worn for about 30 minutes. The entire process takes 3-4 weeks of daily use. Three different strengths of gel may be used, however the higher the strength the greater the likelihood of reactions or tooth sensitivity.
The tray method is recommended for badly stained teeth, such as tetracycline staining, and it may take several months of use to see significant color improvement. For maintenance of whitened teeth, the trays should be used every few months. It is important that the patient is up to date on their regular cleaning and checkup to ensure that any current plaque or staining is removed first.
