Custom Trays, Professional Strength Gel

We can whiten teeth dramatically using various forms of hydrogen peroxide. One form, carbamide peroxide, is most often used in the form of a gel. This gel is placed in trays custom made from impressions of your teeth. The trays are worn in the mouth for one to four hours per treatment. When in contact with the teeth, the carbamide peroxide releases oxygen that releases the stains on your teeth. This process is safe and effective with only a few temporary side effects. This treatment can be applied at home under periodic supervision by Dr. Miller. Results may last for years and can be periodically “touched up” if the patient notices a slight darkening. This type of dental bleaching is termed “at home vital bleaching” and this is an effective method to whiten most teeth. Discuss your condition, concerns, and goals with Dr. Miller to determine if “at home vital bleaching” is the best option for you.
