Whitening Aftercare Instructions
Follow these simple guidelines for optimum success when using our teeth whitening products. If you have any concerns please speak to your dentist.
- Remove the syringe cap and screw the applicator tip into place.
- Ensure teeth are clean before inserting trays but do not brush immediately before treatment.
- Place a SMALL drop of tooth whitening gel halfway up on the inner front surface of tray (in the front part of each tooth in the tray).
- Place the tray around your teeth and apply gently with pressure.
- Wipe away any excess gel from the tray edges with a tissue. .
- The average treatment per arch requires approximately 0.5ml of whitening gel.
- Avoid smoking and staining foods and drink such as, tea, coffee, red wine, curry etc, as this will affect the results.
- We recommend you whiten one arch at a time, after 7 days you can check and assess the shade difference.
- Clean your whitening trays using a soft brush, running cold water and dry them before storing.
- Protect the gel from sunlight and store in a cool dry place.
- No eating or drinking when whitening is in progress.
- Do not use for more than 4 hours at one time.
- If you experience sensitivity we recommend you use a sensitive toothpaste and fluoride mouthwash.
- White fillings, crowns will not get whiter, therefore if your teeth shade are lighter you could speak to your dentist if you wish to have your fillings or crowns replaced.
- Extra syringes can be brought if you wish to have a top up at an additional cost. Please speak to your dentist.
