Whitening Tray Instructions

Whitening Tray Instructions

It is recommended to whiten your teeth for 15-60 minutes at a time.  If you experience sensitivity while whitening, lessen the time you whiten. 

1.        START WITH CLEAN TEETH

A.       Brush and floss teeth

B.      Dry trays out

2.        APPLY GEL TO TEETH

A.       Place a small dot of gel in the front eight teeth of the whitening tray

B.      Insert tray into your mouth and gently push tray onto the teeth

C.       Wipe any excess gel with tissue.  Do not eat, drink, rinse or smoke while trays are in your mouth. 

3.       START WHITENING

A.       Bleach teeth one time each day for 5 days.  After the initial five day bleaching period, bleach as necessary to achieve your desired cosmetic result.  If you experience sensitivity that lingers after bleaching, reduce frequency of bleaching to every other day or every three days if necessary. 

B.      Once you have reached your desired result, whiten less frequently (starting with once every 1-2 weeks) to maintain the color.
