In comparative fitness product
This Talk not an exhaustive comparison of whitening products and procedures available office. I always try to give some comparative data of certain products commonly used so you will understand the explanation of the system that your dentist has chosen to use.
I will tell you eight different techniques office bleaching. I will compare each product with respect to the bleach used, the use of light throttle, the average cost to the dentist for the light used and if so, if a house is recommended as a follow-up, and the average duration of treatment adopted.
NUPRO (R) White Gold / Lightning (TM)
NUPRO is (R) White Gold / Lightning (TM) Dentsply International. No need to light to activate the system and therefore no cost to the dentist for a light. Use at home laundering monitoring system is considered optional (to be determined by a discussion with your dentist). The treatment lasts just over an hour total. Specific applications of chlorine is 3 applications in fifteen minutes. Agent is used 35% hydrogen peroxide with a pH of about 6-8.
Nivea (TM) and opalescence (R), Extra Boost (TM)
There are two products that take into account the acceleration of light option. Are snowy (TM) and Shofu opalescence (R), Extra Boost (TM) Ultradent Inc. Both can be accelerated with a dental curing light if desired. Dental curing lights have other functions in the dental office and is currently owned by the dentist, so no additional cost required by the dentist for a light. Following at-home bleaching is considered obligatory for both products. Nivea (TM) requires two applications of a gel of 25% hydrogen peroxide with a pH of about 7 to 15 minutes each. The total time in the chair about 1 hour. Opalescence (R) requires three applications of 15 minutes and uses a gel of 38% hydrogen peroxide with a pH of about 7.
BriteSmile (R) and Zoom (R)
BriteSmile (R) and Zoom (R) are manufactured for Talk BriteSmile Dental Inc. (R) requires either a plasma or gaseous LED (light emitting diode) light Accelerator. Fires are the property of BriteSmile Inc. (Who is the bleaching systems have been acquired by discussion Inc. Dental) and not by the dentist. Dentists are charged per patient. Following at-home bleaching is considered optional. A 15% hydrogen peroxide gel with a pH of 6.5 is applied in the applications of two periods of 20 minutes with a chair time approximately 1 hour.
Zoom (R) requires mercury lamp, metal halide at a cost of about $ 1,500. At home bleaching is recommended as a follow-up. It is in some assets (16-25%) with a pH around 7.5. It is applied in three applications of 20 minutes with a time president about 90 minutes.

Using a gel of 35% hydrogen peroxide with a pH of about of 5.5 is applied in the applications of three 10 minute periods with a total time of the chair under an hour.
LaserSmile (TM)
The final product I want to discuss here is LaserSmile (TM) Biolase Technology Inc. This product requires use of a laser diode, which costs about $ 20,000 a dentist. However, the laser diode is used for other dental procedures and, if a dentist may not use this system, except that it is using a laser diode in the practice of other procedures. At-home monitoring is considered optional. LaserSmile (TM) uses a gel of 37% hydrogen peroxide with a pH of 7. Each session consists of two applications bleach: the first for 16 minutes and second for 8 minutes. However, the laser light is applied only to a total of about 4 minutes in these applications. The session is approximately one hour.
During previous discussions, when at-home bleaching followed were mentioned, the final decision on the use of control products is something that worked with the dentist based on your recommendation, based on the desired goal of money and the State Parents are discolored teeth.
