Our system, using gas plasma light technology plus a new proprietary
whitening gel, has created a revolutionary method of teeth whitening which
quickly, safely and effectively whitens the entire smile at once.
The primary ingredient in BriteSmile's gel
is the hydrogen peroxide, which has been safely used in teeth whitening for over
100 years and is recognized as an effective ingredient by the dental community.
Even so, the percentage of hydrogen peroxide in BriteSmile's proprietary
gel is less than 15%, far lower than most other whitening products which may
contain as much as 35%-50% hydrogen peroxide.
Our
innovative light system activates the hydrogen peroxide in the gel and speeds up
the whitening procedure – so you leave in just over an hour with your teeth at
their optimal natural whiteness, satisfaction guaranteed. The process whitens
the teeth an average of 9 shades whiter whereas most other procedures offer as
few as a 3-5-shade change.
Yes. Unlike the "do-it-yourself' take home bleaching systems, our
dentists oversee every aspect of your BriteSmile procedure, our dentists will
conduct a thorough examination to ensure both teeth and tissue are acceptable.
Your BriteSmile procedure will not soften enamel or damage existing
composites or fillings.
Independent
safety studies conducted at the University of Dentistry of New Jersey and
reviewed by researchers at New York University found conclusively that the
BriteSmile procedure resulted in no structural change in teeth.
The BriteSmile teeth whitening process is a normally painless.
A very small percentage of people may experience a minor, dull
"ache" following the procedure. Taking an ibuprofen or Tylenol almost
always resolves the feeling. It is best to avoid very hot or very cold drinks
for the first 24 hours if there is any tooth sensitivity.
Yes. Virtually everyone
wanting to brighten his or her teeth can benefit from using BriteSmile,
including people with severe food and tobacco or tetracycline stains.
However, extremely dark teeth may require more than one treatment.
