GETS TEETH WHITER FAST and WITHOUT SENSITIVITY ® QUICK, EASY INSTRUCTIONS FOR GREAT WHITENING RESULTS INCLUDED BONUS AFTER WHITENING REMINERALIZATION TREATMENT INSIDE: How to make your trays. How to whiten your teeth. F I R S T, M A K E YO U R C U S T O M T R AYS : Our bleaching trays will easily mold to the contours of your teeth, allowing our fast-acting bleaching gel to closely contact your enamel. Ready made trays simply don’t allow the “intimate” contact that peroxide bleaching needs. (Please note that we provide you with 4 bleaching trays. One for your upper arch, one for your lower arch, and two more just in case you mess up.) Step 1 HEAT WATER : Heat water in a kettle until it just starts to boil and then pour into a bowl or large cup and let sit for 1 minute. Water temp should be about 160 degrees. Step 2 HEAT TRAY in WATER : Insert a tray into the hot water so the arches are completely submerged. Slowly move the tray in the water, holding the tab until it is flexible. You’ll notice a slight loss of shape to the tray. Once the color of the plastic changes from hazy to clear, lift the tray straight up from the water and test for flexibility. The plastic material should be soft and pliable. Step 3 MAKE MOLD with HEATED TRAY : Place the tray over upper teeth first. Use the tab as a centering guide. Make sure that the sides of the tray don’t fold over on themselves as you bite down. Widen the tray if necessary to accommodate a wider arch. Bite down with moderate pressure to set tray in place and then press firmly over entire length of arch with first finger and thumb of both hands, pushing the outside flanges over the teeth—you will feel the soft plastic forming an exact impression of your upper teeth. Keep the tray in place as it cools (about 10-15 seconds). Step 4 REMOVE TRAY and INSPECT : Close lips and bite lightly a few times before you remove the tray. Pull down lightly to remove the upper tray and take a good look at it. Check to make sure each of the front eight teeth (your most visible teeth) has an impression. If you do not see enough impression of your teeth, simply repeat Step 1-3 to remold the tray. Step 5 ALLOW TRAY TO COOL, REPEAT for LOWER TRAY : When you feel that the tray fits well, allow it to completely cool outside the mouth. To mold your lower arch, simply repeat Steps 1-4 with another tray. Note: For those of you who feel that the trays may be a bit too long, simply cut off about ½ inch on each side. NOW YOU ARE READY TO WHITEN: Step 1 BRUSH YOUR TEETH : Make sure your teeth are clean. Debris can interfere with the process and reduce overall whitening. Step 2 FILL TRAYS : Place a VERY SMALL BEAD of bleaching gel in the ver y deepest front portion of each of the tooth impressions in the bleaching tray. Never overfill the trays with gel. A small amount of Bleaching Gel delivers maximum whitening power. Step 3 INSERT TRAY(S) : Carefully place one gel-filled tray over either the upper or lower arch. You may need to move the tray around a bit to get it seated snugly on your teeth. We believe it is better to do one arch at a time to make breathing easier and to keep trays from knocking into each other and shifting, however this is personal preference. Step 4 WAIT FOR WHITENING PROCESS : Let the tray sit on your teeth for at least 30 minutes. (For a deeper bleaching effect, you may leave the tray on your teeth for up to 1 hour.) Remove trays after at least 30 minutes of contact. Repeat the procedure for the other arch if you chose to do one at a time. Step 5 CLEAN TEETH & TRAYS : Brush or rinse remaining gel away from teeth and gums. Clean trays gently with a soft toothbrush and cool water, then store in the protective case. DESENSITIZING SEALER: WHEN TO USE : The desensitizing syringe should be used AFTER YOU HAVE ATTAINED THE DESIRED SHADE OF WHITENESS or used up your three syringes of whitening gel, whichever comes first. The desensitizing gel will seal in whiteness and help prevent discomfort, sensitivity to temperature, and premature staining. HOW TO USE: Apply the desensitizing gel the same way you use the bleaching gel. ADDITIONAL WHITENING INFORMATION: IMPORTANT INFO: The front eight teeth on the upper and lower arch are the easiest to bleach. The farther back you go, the more difficult the bleaching. Keep in mind that only the front eight teeth are fully visible when you smile. Tr y to avoid swallowing excess gel. While not harmful, it is best to limit ingestion to avoid potential stomach upset in more sensitive individuals. If you use just a small bead of gel in the tray this problem will be avoided. Clinical studies show significant shade changes occur within 5 treatments. Results may var y due to the composition and discoloration of teeth of individual cases. WARNINGS & PRECAUTIONS: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN UNDER 14. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING. Some tingling in the gums may result from use of bleaching gel. This is normal. If pain or severe sensitivity develops in the teeth or gums discontinue use and contact your dentist. Bleaching materials contain peroxides but will not change the appearance of fillings, crowns, or veneers. If gel comes in contact with the eyes, rinse immediately with water. Avoid getting gel on clothing as some bleaching may occur. Patients allergic to peroxides should not use this product. This product should not be used if you have dental decay, tooth pain or if you are wearing braces. In some cases you may notice some bleaching of the gum tissue surrounding the teeth that have been bleached. Do not be alarmed—this will naturally reverse itself in a day or two.
