4 Teeth Whitening Trends your Patients Might be Exposed to

Some of these trends are perfectly safe under your supervision, and some might be harmful to your teeth. So, let your patients know the facts when helping them find an effective tooth whitening solution.

Teeth Whitening Light

UV Whitening Lights

The effect of UV whitening lights is temporary, and can dehydrate the teeth. This can lead to shade relapse and more work in a patient's regimen.

Purple Whitening Toothpaste

Purple Toothpaste

Purple toothpaste creates an illusion rather than addressing the core problem. The color offsets teeth yellowing on a shallow surface level.

Don't add another charger and cord to your lifestyle. A light isn't needed to get great results when whitening your teeth! With our products you can ditch having to remember to charge another item. Reach for Opalescence™ whitening products, and leave the cords in a drawer.

 

Charcoal Toothpaste

Charcoal Toothpaste

With charcoal toothpaste, the irregular shapes of the charcoal shards stick in between teeth. Plus, it can be abrasive enough to damage the outer enamel.

Teeth Whitening Toothpaste

Whitening Toothpaste

If patients use a brand of whitening toothpaste with very low abrasion, and leaves out unnecessary ingredients like peroxide (since it washes away too quickly to be effective), it will optimize the surface whitening of their teeth. 

What are our products made of?

Peroxide is talked about a lot in tooth whitening, because it’s what ignites the whitening process in the tooth. But, what about some of the secondary ingredients? What else makes whitening the most effective?

Hydrogen Peroxide
