Thank you for the nice comment and my heart felt best for a positive recovery of your injuries. You are a positive inspiration as a survivor in many different ways. Thank you for a small touch to my life.
Thanks SO much 4 taking the time to make this video. Im a Lupus survivor & was in a car accident that shattered my face & I had many surgeries including dental implants. Im finally finishing up the work in my mouth, due to medications my teeth were stained. I went to a new dentist to finish the work he’s THE WORST I have ever dealt with in my life. I picked up the bleaching trays today, needless to say ended up searching for a video of which thank goodness I found yours to help me.
Thank you for this video. Very informative, and easy to understand.
Thank you for the nice compliment. This video is a bit dated now, but the principles are still the same. My more recent videos give you more detail. glad to be of help!
I learned more from your videos and posts than I did in my dentist’s office regarding these trays and their proper use. When i picked up my trays I had to request instruction re: bleach application/wear time, etc. I subsequently was given a two minute briefing which DID NOT cover all that is in your videos. Thank you for taking the time to make them.
Yes….once a day is fine, or over night while you sleep. Good luck with your results!
This was very helpful! I was going to whiten tonight but then I realized I didn’t know how to actually put the bleach in the tray!! This is great! However, this brought up a new question. I’m 19 and my dentist gave me 13%. The directions say to wear 20-30 minutes two times a day for 7-10 days, but could I just do an hour once a day? Would it work the same? Thanks!
Depends on a couple things. Is it a sports mouth guard, or a night guard for grinding teeth? You can use those, but watch for irregular (spotty) bleaching, especially if the guard is store bought.
If they are made in a dental office, and fit well, then I would say “yes”. You can give it a try and monitor it in a week or so. If you are buying the bleach from a dentist, you could have him/her take a quick look.
can I use my mouthguard instead??
Thanks for the replies:D….thank you so much for your comments
Four syringes sounds about right. At age 17, the bleach should go a bit faster depending on the stain, so don’t be afraid to skip a day if they get sensitive to cold drinks. Good luck!
He gave me 4 syrens of bleach..and Im 17..Is that right?? It say=22% carbamide peroxide gel…
You had a very good price. Upper and lower, I assume. You didn’t mention the strength of the bleach, or how many syringes of bleach he initially gave you.
Depending on your age, type of darkness you have, habits, etc, Two weeks is a safe number. This is a reason I usually start the upper teeth a week in advance, so you can see some changes. Both together at the beginning is tough..it is like watching the grass grow…the changes are so little and minor. Look to the long run
You may want to refer to the three part video I have at the top of my page to see some of the details of how these are made.
It will remain (forever?)…if you simply do maintenence. If you are going to put that kind of money into crowns, veneers, etc, to maintain your “whiteness”, you will have to use the bleach sparingly as time goes on. This type of bleach will slowly penetrate and whiten the enamel. It will taken even a longer time for the bleach to exit the enamel, so simple maintence will keep them white. I am doing my own once every other week now.
I appreciate your kind words. Talking about from the time a patient first walks in until delivery, it will depend on how busy the dental office is. Usually I ask a week (5 working days), if I am busy. If I am not busy, it can be done in 36 hours. Once the initial impression is taken, and liquid stone is poured in, I like the stone cast to sit for one full day to insure thorough hardness, The model is then trimmed and placed in the molding machine. The tray is trimmed and fitted.
wonderful video!
just a quick question for you – how long does it take to make the bleach trays?
Thanks but i have 1 more question, for example, after i whiten my teeth and my teeth perfect white and how long does this remain(if i brush my teeth after i eat something-everytime)
..thanks…I bought them from my dentist for $200..I have 4 days using it but I dont see my teeth that white…Are they going to be whiter in two weeks?????thats what my dentist told me :/
Thank you for the nice compliment. Prices vary so much, it would be hard to get you close to an exact cost. My guess for top (maxillary) and bottom (mandibular) together would range from $300-$700. (American dollars). I include a few months of bleach syringes with the initial delievery. Most of the cost for this is indeed up front. But in the long run, it will even out and the whitened teeth will last for a very long time with minimum maintenence.
Yes, whiten your teeth to the desired shade before putting money into future restorations, especially those that are porcelain based.
What a good dentist
..how much do they cost???
Should i use whitening bleach first before filling treatment?
Two to three hours is enough if you are getting sensitivity. Buy any toothpaste that will help the sensitivity. Use it everyday and occasionally skip a day of bleaching. If you are consistant, it will still work. Trying to go too fast will create the discomfort you have. The younger you are the more chance of discomfort as the bleach can penetrate the enamel quicker. You also need to use a SOFT brush when brushing. Hope that helps a bit.
thanks for the reply doctor. my dentist told me i should wear them for at least 6 hours everynight till i get the good result, yet am wondering if is enough to wear them for two to three hours? its 15% gel, shouldnt that be worn for a longer time? can i take any medicine that can make this pain less?? is it gonna harm my gums if they get in touch? i experienced some pain in ma gums while brushing my teeth. is that dangerous?? thanks again for ur time doc, i appericiate ur answer
