PRE-BLEACHING INSTRUCTIONS TO MINIMIZE SENSITIVITY
NOTE - Teeth bleaching gel refills are ONLY used with dentist-made (professional) Whitening Trays. By buying these whitening gel refills, you acknowledge that you have had professional instruction regarding the storage, dispensing and application of bleaching gel. Do NOT smoke, drink or eat while bleaching your teeth. It is NOT recommended to bleach your teeth if you're pregnant or nursing.
WE, AT DENTIST.NET, URGE ALL CUSTOMERS TO PLEASE CONSULT A DENTIST FOR A THOROUGH DENTAL EXAMINATION BEFORE USING ANY AT HOME TOOTH WHITENING SYSTEMS.
DENTIST.NET IS INFORMED THAT NEARLY ALL TOOTH BLEACHING STUDIES HAVE BEEN CONDUCTED WITH 10% CARBAMIDE PEROXIDE(CP). WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU USE THIS STRENGTH FOR YOUR TOOTH WHITENING NEEDS. THERE IS LIMITED OR NO RESEARCH WITH THE HIGHER STRENGTH BLEACHING GELS. AS SUCH, PURCHASE AND USE OF THE HIGHER STRENGTH GELS IS DONE SO AT YOUR OWN RISK AND DENTIST.NET IS NOT LIABLE FOR YOUR RESULTS OR DAMAGE FROM USING THE HIGHER STRENGTH GELS.
Dental Work: Tooth Whitening (bleaching) gel will only whiten natural teeth. It will NOT bleach (whiten), nor harm bonding, caps, crowns, bridges, fillings or any other artificial dental work. You may have to have the dentistry redone in order to match your new white teeth. Tetracycline (an antibiotic) stained teeth or grayish teeth are more difficult to bleach and have a varied prognosis. Exposed root portions of teeth which occur with gum recession will also not bleach. If you have amalgam (silver) fillings in, near or behind the front teeth, long term bleaching can cause the surrounding tooth to have a greenish tinge. Bleaching teeth which have a lot of translucency (see thru) can cause the teeth to become even more translucent and may give the tooth a darker appearance. It is important to consult a dentist if you have any of the above concerns.
Sensitivity: Your teeth or gums will most likely become sensitive. This is common while using all products containing peroxide based gels and it is not harmful. In case of increased sensitivity reduce usage time and/or frequency until the sensitivity subsides. Due to the high prevalence of sensitivity, Dentist.net recommends the routine use of Dr. Collins Desensitizing Gel following bleaching.
Results vary and Dentist.net cannot guarantee a particular result.
WARNINGS: Keep out of reach of children. DO NOT USE IF PREGNANT OR DURING NURSING.
