As cosmetic teeth whitening surpasses $300M per year, it\’s clear that nothing is more desired or compelling than a clean and confident smile.

With countless products on the market, professional whitening, using high-quality professional strength gel and professionally made trays, is still the most popular and the most effective method of whitening teeth. Short of expensive, permanent veneers, no method of bleaching provides better and more long-lasting results than bleaching.

Professional strength home bleaching has helped countless number of people increase their confidence by giving them a more whiter smile.

Though nearly everyone is interested in maintaining a white and beautiful smile, bleaching is not ideal for everyone. For a person with extremely sensitive teeth, a high level of man-made tooth surfaces, or in need of basic dental maintenance, it is best to let their regular dentist decide if their teeth are healthy enough for bleaching and to recommend the best whitening process a patient should undergo for optimal comfort and highest result.

With careful use, almost every patient can achieve results from bleaching using a high quality professional-level bleach such as the 20% and 33% carbamide peroxide gel solutions provided by Shine:

1. Anyone with gum problems should take extra care to keep the whitening gel from touching any part of their gums. In fact a person with moderate to advanced gum disease should not be getting their teeth bleached at all. However, remember that a good set of custom made trays, or careful application with the tiny brush on a teeth whitening pen can help to keep gel safely away from the gums. Also remember that 50% of the whitening action happens in the first 15 minutes of treatment, so for anyone who is concerned, there is no need to risk sensitivity by wearing bleaching trays for more than 10-15 minutes at a time.

2. If bleaching gel should leak out of the tray, the patient should simply wipe it away with a cotton swab or a tissue rather than let it remain. Also, if any part of the gums appear \”white\” from exposure to gel when the trays are removed, there\’s no problem. Other than possible sensitivity, the gums won\’t be harmed by the exposure and will return to their normal pink color within several minutes. However, the white appearance is a sign that too much gel has been applied to the tray, and the client should take care to use a lighter application next time.

3. Teeth whitening procedures are usually not covered by dental insurance but at just $99 for a full custom fit bleaching kit – or $20 for a whitening pen – patients are thrilled to get these professional products at a fraction of what their dentist would charge them.

4. Man-made tooth material (veneers, crowns, etc) will not be whitened any further by the application of bleach. This is important to remember when a client has tooth-colored fillings on the front of their teeth. They should maintain the color of their teeth post filling, but clients should be careful to emphasize the spaces between teeth most fully, where the darkening first happens.

5. Whitening toothpastes are helpful to a teeth whitening program since they can remove smaller stains, but using toothpaste alone does not permanently or dramatically improve the color of teeth.

6. Teeth that are yellow or gray due to antibiotics will be more limited in their improvement results.

7. Clients should have any cavities filled before bleaching.

8. The professional bleaching kits from Shine, which are identical to a dentist\’s bleaching kit, contains a much stronger peroxide agent than over-the-counter products, which typically contain peroxide in only a 2-4% strength, which means that a professional kit will be far more effective than over the counter tooth bleaching strips or similar products.

9. Regular dental maintenance is still required for the continued look and health of your smile. Whitening does not take the place of a professional cleaning.

10. No study has ever indicated a risk of danger to mother or child of carbamide peroxide teeth whitening (although extra care should be taken to be sure the gel is never worn during naps or accidentally ingested). So, for your pregnant patients, you should be conservative and advise them to follow their doctor\’s advice before using any teeth bleaching gel.

Something to Smile about in this New Year!

January 8th, 2010 Calvin Jai No comments

Most resolutions are so difficult that we have forgotten about them before February hits. But if a whiter, bright smile is on your client\’s list, then the people at Shine have something for you. New professional teeth whitening kits are easily affordable whitening solutions for almost any client you serve.

Some people may think that teeth whitening products don\’t work. The truth is that most over-the-counter products are only somewhat effective. The popular \”bleaching strips\” contain only a mild level of whitening agent, and can cause unintended problems such as uneven whitening (if the strips start to slip), or hardening that makes them difficult to remove. Many bleaching strips also leave behind an unpleasant grittiness.

These products are only effective for improving the appearance of light surface stains, and the level of whitening they produce is minimal. But for the majority of clients plagued with yellowing or dinginess due to our habits or the beverages we consume, a professional strength whitening product such as the options from Shine can provide long-lasting and fantastic results.

Remember that even though teeth appear to be solid, they have pits and grooves that allow coffee, nicotine, and tea to stain the enamel. Regular brushing is not able to lift these embedded stains. Professional teeth bleaching kits – particularly those comprised of high quality custom-made trays used in conjunction with professional-strength carbamide peroxide gel, can seep into these nooks and crannies, generally lifting away dinginess and stains after a period of 7-10 treatments. However, if we continue to drink coffee or smoke cigarettes, these stains will reappear, which is why periodic use of professional bleaching products is the optimal strategy for keeping your smile bright and white.

If you are looking for a whiter smile and added profits in the new year, now is the time to check out Shine\’s professional bleaching products and custom fit bleaching kits. Shine\’s low wholesale pricing and volume discounts make professional level bleaching more cost effective than ever before. At a retail price of $99, your clients can save up to $300 over an equivalent kit from their dentist, all while providing a lucrative source of additional profit for you. Now that should put a smile on your face!

Shine Teeth Whitening offers white-label teeth whitening services for medical spas, laser centers and cosmetic medical offices. Shine provides medical spas and physicians the ability to provide custom teeth whitening services and products like teeth whitening kits and whitening pens.
