Is a bleaching light or laser used with the Beyond ™ Power Whitening system?
The protocol for the Beyond whitening system includes the use of a halogen bleaching light (named the “Power Whitening Accelerator”). When the light is placed into position, it is capable of simultaneously illuminating all of the patient’s teeth being treated (both upper and lower). The wavelength of the light emitted from this unit is in the range of 480 to 520nm (meaning that the light has a blue-green coloration). The company suggests that the use of their bleaching light assists with the effectiveness of their bleaching gel and therefore the tooth whitening process as a whole.
