Introduction to
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening has become increasingly popular over the years, with many systems and products available to the consumer. The quickest way to achieve whiter teeth is to visit a dentist who uses a laser whitening system to achieve results in an office visit that lasts about an hour. Dentists also may offer custom-fitted tray-based whitening systems for use at home in conjunction with a professional grade whitening gel. Dental office procedures vary in price, typically from several hundred dollars up to over a thousand dollars.
Over-the-counter products that you can purchase in most drug stores and online from teeth whitening specialists include systems such as whitening strips, boil & bite trays, light activated products, and brush-on whiteners. These products have generally been introduced by large brand name companies and followed by knock-off imitations. While over-the-counter products are significantly less expensive than dental office techniques, most of them leave much to be desired.
Perfect Smile has developed a solution to many of the problems inherent in other teeth whitening products found in retail stores and online. The Perfect Smile Teeth Whitening Pen is an easy-to-use, click and brush-on pen dispenser that contains a water soluble, pH neutral whitening gel. The gel itself is very unique in that it is formulated with polymers that rapidly spread out on the surface of the gel upon application to the teeth thus forming an invisible film that holds the gel onto the tooth surface. The whitening film is only partially soluble in saliva thereby increasing the residence time of the gel on the tooth surface. After approximately 20 minutes the gel will have fully dissolved in the saliva and no further actions are required. During the 20 minute period, the gel is performing the whitening function and the user simply refrains from eating or drinking during that timeframe.
