does it work?

This advanced technology utilizes a patented Cold Blue light The White Knith with a patented whitening gel to accelerate the
whitening process. This revolutionary technology is quick, effective and gently delivers a naturally brilliant smile in a
few minutes.
Q:
Does teeth whitening cause sensitivity?
A:
Tooth sensitivity is extremely rare after the procedure. The Beaming White procedure will not damage enamel or existing fillings.
The primary ingredient in Bleach Bright gel is hydrogen peroxide, which has been safely used in teeth whitening for over
100 years and is recognized as an effective whitening ingredient by the dental community. The percentage of hydrogen peroxide
used in Bleach Bright proprietary gel is only 16% much lower than other whitening gels that often contain 35%-50%.The
majority of our clients experience no pain or sensitivity after the Bleach Bright Professional Teeth Whitening treatment.
A very small percentage of customers may experience minor gum sensitivity following the procedure. Taking some sort of analgesic
almost always resolves the feeling.
Q:
What is the difference between carbamide and hydrogen peroxide gel?
A: The two most
common active ingredients in teeth whitening are hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide while the two are very closely related,
there are differences that should be highlighted in explaining why certain manufacturers use hydrogen peroxide and others
use carbamide peroxide.
Carbamide peroxide acts more slowly and will need to be on the teeth for longer.
In general,
hydrogen peroxide products are used for short daytime use and carbamide peroxide is used for longer overnight periods. In
order to provide the most rapid and effective whitening treatment, all Bleach Bright whitening gels contain hydrogen
peroxide as the active ingredient.
Q:
How white will my teeth get?
A:
In general, results will vary from customer to customer depending on the types of stains present, the peroxide dose and the
among of length of the teeth whitening sessions. Bleach Bright has been able to achieve over 8+ shades whiter on average.
Q: How often can a person whiten his/her teeth?
