Having a bright and confident smile begins with whiter teeth. Opalescence™ teeth whitening is an effective and safe method for individuals to achieve their dream smile. While many over-the-counter whitening products are available, professional-grade whitening provides noticeable and long-lasting results. Here are five reasons to consider Opalescence to enhance the appearance of your teeth.
Opalescence teeth whitening offers professional-grade whitening formulas to target deep stains and effectively brighten the patient’s teeth. This treatment contains higher concentrations of whitening agents than over-the-counter products, such as whitening strips and toothpaste. In contrast, professional-grade whitening formulas remove surface stains and deeper discoloration caused by staining agents like consuming coffee and tea, smoking, and aging. With a higher concentration of whitening agents that can target deeper into the patient’s enamel, Opalenscence teeth whitening breaks down the discoloration at its source.
Unlike one-size-fits-all whitening kits found at the store, Opalescence teeth whitening offers personalized treatment options to ensure the treatment is comfortable and effective. Opalescence uses UltraFit™ trays, an adaptable material that comfortably fits each patient's smile. The material responds to the patient's internal temperature and molds around the unique shape of their mouth. The UltraFit tray offers optimal coverage, whitening the entire smile while keeping maximum whitening gel on the teeth. This method is also more comfortable and reduces the risk of gum irritation.
Opalescence teeth whitening treatment is convenient, allowing patients to fit their teeth whitening goals around their daily routine. Depending on their needs, they can choose between 10% hydrogen peroxide and 15% hydroperoxide concentration. The decision will depend on the severity of their discoloration and how long they want to wear the whitening tray.
For example, the 10% hydrogen peroxide option requires the patient to wear it for 30 to 60 minutes for 5-10 days. In contrast, the higher concentration requires them to wear the tray for 15 to 20 minutes for 5-10 days. The dental team will work with each patient to help determine which option best meets their needs and goals.
A concern that many people have before undergoing teeth whitening treatment is that it will increase teeth sensitivity or damage their enamel. Many whitening products contain ingredients that can weaken teeth over time, particularly if these products are used too often. Fortunately, Opalescence is made with potassium nitrate and fluoride, which strengthen enamel while reducing the risk of teeth sensitivity. This is particularly beneficial for individuals with deep discoloration or who are planning to whiten their teeth more than once.
Opalescence teeth whitening offers noticeable results within a few days. However, it is important to note that, on average, it will take about one or two weeks for the full results to appear, depending on the concentration used and the duration of treatment. Fortunately, patients can easily manage their treatment results with a thorough oral hygiene routine and avoiding staining agents and foods.
