IS SALON TEETH WHITENING SIMILAR TO DENTAL OFFICE WHITENING?
Almost all whitening done today utilizes the same basic process: a peroxide based formula and an accelerator light. Although methods may vary slightly, results are essentially comparable. Dental office whitening is a more involved treatment than salon whitening. A stronger peroxide solution is used requiring application of a protective barrier to the gums and inner mouth tissue to minimize sensitivity. Salon whitening is a non-invasive treatment using whiteners that are less potent, thereby dramatically reducing or eliminating sensitivity issues.
