A second option for whitening is home whitening.  For this option we take impressions of your teeth.  From these impressions we make trays that fit your teeth exactly. Since we have to make the trays, this option does require you coming to the office twice.  First to take the impressions which takes about half an hour, second to make sure the trays fit correctly.  With this kit you are given 4 tubes of whitening gel.

Each night you will spread small amounts of gel in appropriate areas for both the upper and the lower trays.  We normally suggest that you do this for ten nights in a row.  Some people do experience sensitivity with the home whitening kit in which case we suggest that you stop the procedure for one or two nights then start up again when the sensitivity has subsided.

The 4 bleaching gel tubes should last approximately 20 applications.  When they are finished, more gel can be purchased from our offices.
