A: Teeth whitening treatments can sometimes cause temporary teeth sensitivity.  Here are some important details to know.

• The length of the treatment time is not necessarily the determining factor for this occurrence therefore, shortening treatment time is not necessarily a solution to reduce sensitivity.
• Some sensitivity is caused by certain concentrations of ingredients such as hydrogen and/or carbamide peroxide. These ingredients are common in whitening products because they effectively breakdown stains on the tooth surface and within the tooth enamel to whiten. 
• Not everyone experiences sensitivity, however, if you do experience sensitivity during or after a whitening treatment, there are things you can do to help alleviate the discomfort. We recommend that you research solutions to share with a dental professional and consult with them to determine the best plan for you considering your individual use of any whitening product, your lifestyle, and your dental health.

A: WIRED AND WIRELESS MOUTHPIECES: The Blue LED light in the wired and wireless mouthpieces are designed to activate the carbamide peroxide ingredient in whitening products such as gel. This process creates an effect that breakdowns surface stains on the teeth as well as penetrates tooth enamel to reduce staining below the surface of teeth.

ELECTRIC TOOTHBRUSH: The Blue LED light in the electric toothbrush is intended to help maintain whitened results. The best results occur when the toothbrush is used with an effective whitening toothpaste, powder, or foam. Though the LED light in the electric toothbrush is not intended to whiten, it is designed to provide more visibility when brushing. In combination with its design, the Bryte electric toothbrush provides the opportunity for a customized and thorough brushing experience, all while supporting the maintenance of good oral health and a longer lasting white smile.

A: Here are 5 important details to know:

1️⃣ The pens contain Carbamide Peroxide (CP), an ingredient that is commonly used in whitening products because it can effectively breakdown surface stains and penetrate the tooth enamel to remove stains below the surface.

2️⃣ A 3 pack of pens have a shelf life of 12 months & according to the manufacturer, can provide enough gel for up to 25 treatments per pen depending on individual use.

3️⃣ The pens have a soft brush applicator head and a click design making them easy to hold and apply gel.

4️⃣ The gel should be applied to the tooth and NOT the mouthpiece. Also, it is best to avoid applying gel to gums or the gumline.

5️⃣ Pens should be refrigerated according to the manufacturer because if they are not properly stored the ingredients and whitening effectiveness may be compromised.

A: The following are key points to know:

1️⃣ Strips are designed to comfortably conform to the shape of your teeth to keep the whitening ingredient on your teeth for 30-60 minutes. During the treatment time DO NOT smoke, eat or drink anything.

2️⃣ Whitening strips have whitening ingredients that are safe to tooth enamel.

3️⃣ Though it is not noticed by everyone, it is normal if you notice white spots on your teeth immediately after whitening. This can occur because whitening can make the imperfections in teeth appear more visible. However, this is a temporary appearance and will go away with time. If you are concerned, always stop using the product and consult with a dental professional.

4️⃣ All whitening products including whitening strips only whiten natural teeth, therefore they will not whiten dental work such as crowns, caps, veneers, bridges, fillings, or dentures. DO NOT use whitening strips on loose teeth, temporary fillings, and orthodontics. Aways check with your dental professional and your orthodontist (if applicable) if you have questions or concerns.

5️⃣ Whitening strips can come in contact with gums; however, such contact should be minimized to avoid gum irritation.

6️⃣ Your teeth should be clean but prior to a whitening strip treatment, however, do NOT use whitening strips immediately after brushing. After a whitening strip treatment, remove the strips, rinses your mouth with water, and use a tissue to wipe away excess gel. Wait 30 minutes before brushing.
