You Can Create Your Own Custom Tooth Whitening Tray
You see it nightly on television and whenever you go to a movie. The camera zooms in on the face of the news anchor or the television star flashes a huge white smile. That’s when you become increasingly self-conscious of your own smile and start to think about how it would feel if you, too, could have a smile like a star. Those in the media have probably had their teeth treated professionally, however, it is quite possible for you to achieve a similar tooth whitening result within the comfort of your home.
What is Tooth Whitening?
Tooth whitening at home is a 10 to 14 day process that involves the use of a whitening gel and a tooth whitening tray that is molded to fit over the individual’s upper and lower teeth. This dental treatment has been shown to be effective in removing stains caused by
- smoking
- coffee
- tea
- soda
- aging
Occasionally teeth can become sensitive to hot and cold as a result of at home tooth whitening but it is generally considered a generally safe procedure that does not adversely affect the tooth itself. It is highly recommended that prior to conducting tooth whitening at home you visit your dentist. This will ensure that you have no gum disease or tooth decay.
Tooth Whitening Process
Tooth whitening at home is a straightforward process that can be accomplished by purchasing a tooth whitening kit. Following the directions on the kit you place the bleaching gel in the tooth whitening tray and place the whitening tray onto your teeth. If you choose a product like Pro-White teeth whitening system you would leave your tooth whitening tray in place for 20 minutes to one hour.
When purchasing an at-home tooth whitening system always check to see how long you have to leave the trays in the mouth. Twenty minutes to one hour a day is manageable, however, some kits require you to leave the whitening trays in your mouth for three hours and that can seriously interfere with your daily routine!
Custom Fit Tooth Whitening Trays
Many home whitening kits include generic whitening trays that you mold yourself in hot water. The advantage of the Pro-White tooth whitening trays is that you take an impression of your teeth with the dental quality putty they provide in their kit and send it to the Pro White Laboratory where there technicians make a custom fit tooth whitening tray for you.
Another advantage with the Pro-White system is that their gel uses a prescription strength bleaching formula of 22% carbamide peroxide and this is the type of bleaching you can usually only expect in a dentist’s office.
