White Light whitening at home

How does White Light whitening work?

White Light Whitening is one of the most popular at-home teeth whitening systems today. The peculiarity of White Light teeth whitening is that the procedure involves the use of an acid-free gel, which eliminates the negative impact on tooth enamel. At the same time, the effectiveness of the procedure carried out at home using the White Light whitening system is increased due to the LED lamp - this is a much more gentle method than ultraviolet teeth whitening.

Precautionary measures

Despite the fact that White Light whitening technology has all the necessary quality certificates, when using it you must take precautions:

undergo a preliminary examination by a dentist to identify contraindications;
use the drug only for natural teeth;
do not use the product uncontrollably (during sleep);
do not allow the drug to come into contact with the gums;
store the product out of the reach of children.

The White Light home teeth whitening system kit includes:

✔

Two-component whitening gel (active ingredient and whitening agent)

✔

Mouthguard for the upper and lower jaws

✔

Instructions for use

In its technology, White Light teeth whitening is similar to Zoom whitening: under the influence of an LED lamp, active oxygen is released from a special gel, which lightens the enamel tissue, destroying plaque molecules and age spots.

What color of teeth can you get and how to maintain the whitening results for a long time?

In-office ZOOM whitening brightens teeth by 6-8 shades on the VITA scale. The result lasts for 1-2 years , subject to proper dental care and maintenance courses of home whitening.

In the first days after teeth whitening, it is important to follow a “white diet” - refrain from eating coloring foods.

In-office ZOOM whitening can be repeated no earlier than after 1 year.

Advantages and disadvantages of the White Light whitening system

Unlike many other at-home whitening techniques, White Light teeth whitening has a number of serious advantages. However, despite the many positive qualities, the White Light Teeth Whitening Kit also has some disadvantages. A comparison table with the pros and cons of the system is presented below.

The effect can be noticeable after the third whitening procedure.
The result lasts longer (up to one and a half years).
The system can be used daily.
There are no side effects.
The device is easy to use.
There is no increased sensitivity of the teeth.
The system is absolutely harmless, as it does not contain abrasive particles or caustic chemicals.

The mouth guards included in the White Light kit may cause discomfort because they are not individual, unlike mouth guards made in a dental laboratory that completely follow the shape of the teeth. As a result, the gel can be washed out of the tray by saliva, which reduces the effectiveness of the procedure.
White Light Gel contains carbamide peroxide (a brightening agent) in an amount of 12% of the total composition, in some cases this may not be enough for the patient to get a noticeable result. In this case, you should use professional bleaching or other, more serious, methods of enamel lightening.
In the first days, teeth grinding may occur. It goes away quickly.

In addition to all of the above, indirect disadvantages include the fact that due to the popularity of the White Light teeth whitening system, many fakes are produced. The use of such a system can lead to negative consequences, since the gel may contain caustic acids or alkali. Therefore, approach your purchase responsibly and carefully - purchase goods only at official points of sale or in trusted online stores.

About the system

The White Light complex is a system for teeth whitening at home. Using it, you can save a significant amount and whiten all your teeth without seeking help from dentists. The system is sold in pharmacies or ordered on the official website.

The basis of the White Light system is a gel for cleaning and brightening the surface of teeth in combination with a special light that activates it. There is no need to visit a doctor and no harm will be caused even to sensitive teeth.

White Light: before and after use

Advantages of such a whitening system:

High quality professional level. White Light has components similar to gels, which are used for the same purposes in prestigious dental clinics. Therefore, the result of its use is always successful, compared to other means in the form of whitening pastes and special false strips on the jaw.
The system is safe. The gels included in its composition do not damage tooth enamel. They do not contain aggressive alkalis or acids. Only active oxygen has a whitening effect.
White Light lasts quite a long time. The whitening effect lasts for a year. This is a much longer period than other whitening pastes. But the effect of a dazzling snow-white smile will be preserved even better if you give up strong coffee and tea, and food containing various dyes. Periodic visits to the dentist are also necessary.

The disadvantages of the system include the standard design of the trays used in the set for applying the gel, which is not suitable for those whose dental impressions are very different from ideal. The whitening effect will be somewhat less than with the help of professional products in a dental clinic.

Contraindications

Before you begin the White Light whitening procedure, you should definitely consult with a specialist, because this type of whitening, like all others, has a number of limitations in use:

✔

carrying out orthodontic treatment during the White Light course

excluded;

✔

The device cannot be used for gum diseases;

✔

White Light whitening cannot be performed on patients under 16 years of age;

✔

It is not recommended to carry out the procedure if there are fillings, dentures, or

crowns - since they will not have any whitening effect.

What else you need to know before whitening

1) Whitening only changes the color of natural teeth . Fillings, inlays, veneers and crowns cannot be bleached. If such restorations are located in the smile area and after whitening they differ in color from “your” teeth, ask your dentist to replace them.

For the same reason , teeth treated before whitening are closed with temporary fillings in order to later replace them with permanent ones (with the selection of the appropriate color).

Replacement of restorations is carried out no earlier than 14 days after completion of whitening (this is the average time it takes for the formation of a new teeth color).

2) Depulped (dead) teeth that have darkened after nerve removal can be whitened only by intracoronal bleaching . This procedure must be performed before teeth whitening.

3) It is impossible to accurately predict and order a specific color . The result of whitening is individual for each person and depends on many factors.

For example: gray-brown teeth whiten worse than white and yellow teeth. “Fangs” bleach worse than “incisors.”

Teeth may whiten unevenly (the necks of the teeth remain darker), but after some time the color of the teeth evens out. If this does not happen, you can lighten the unsatisfactory color with additional bleaching procedures.

The only option to ensure the desired color that is the same for all teeth is to install ceramic veneers on the teeth “in the smile zone.”

Instructions for use White Light

The rules for using the White Light teeth whitening system are quite simple, however, you should read them carefully to achieve maximum results.

Stages of the procedure:

1. Perform thorough oral hygiene using a brush and floss.

2. Prepare the White Light kit for use.

3. Apply two types of gel alternately to the surface of the tray with a thin strip (5 millimeters wide): first whitening, then with the active component.

4. Insert the mouthguard into your mouth and clamp it with your teeth.

5. Place the light device in your mouth, fix it with your lips and turn it on.

6. After 10 minutes, the device will turn off automatically. Then during the day you can repeat the procedure several times, but the total procedure time should not exceed 30 minutes daily. The course can last up to two weeks.

7. Upon completion of the procedure, rinse the whitening device and tray under the tap.

During whitening, you should take precautions: do not allow the gel to get into your eyes, rinse them immediately if this happens, and also make sure that the product does not come into contact with the skin (this can cause irritation).

Beyond Polus whitening technology

The basis of tissue lightening is the chemical process of oxidation of pigments with oxygen. The method of teeth whitening procedure is well established: hydrogen peroxide acts as an oxidizing agent (the original Beyond Polus gel contains 35% of the active substance), and a lamp emitting a luminous flux acts as a catalyst for the process. Several types of lamps are used in dentistry, including ultraviolet lamps, which are considered traditional, since it was thanks to them that whitening became possible in principle. However, UV lamps produce rays that fall in the red part of the spectrum. They heat the surface that absorbs them, which in some cases leads to pain in the tissues of tooth enamel and dentin.

The Beyond Polus lamp is designed in such a way that the light flux passes through 12,000 optical fibers, in addition, it is filtered by two lenses with a 30-layer protective coating, so the output is a beam of uniform waves with a length of 480-520 nanometers. Waves of this length create ideal conditions for the oxidation reaction and at the same time do not cause an increase in temperature, that is, they are absolutely safe and painless for oral tissues. It is also important that the device ensures precision and can be used not only for whitening the dentition as a whole, but also individual teeth.

Beyond Polus is a whitening system containing all the tools a dentist needs. The Beyond Pole professional whitening kit includes:

whitening gel (active substance concentration 35%);
protective gel with applicator (Blueseal Gingival Protection);
polishing paste;
scale for determining the shade of tooth enamel;
tampons and rollers for isolating soft tissues of the oral cavity;
napkin to protect the skin;
retractor;
saliva ejector tip designed to remove gel.

The manufacturer has developed a special reminder card for teeth care after Beyond Polus whitening, as well as Beyond PearlWhite toothpaste, using which patients will be able to maintain the effect of the procedure for a long time. As for the device, in addition to its modern design, it is distinguished by a wide selection of additional settings and options that allow you to work with dental fluorosis and hypersensitivity, as well as convenient control using a touch screen. The patient is not forgotten either - a separate remote control is provided for him, designed to attract the doctor’s attention.
