How KöR Teeth Whitening Works

The KöR whitening system is composed of two primary elements: the whitening trays and peroxide gel. The gel is made of a peroxide used to treat intrinsic staining. These intrinsic stains are a result of a large natural pigment that is trapped within the very structure of your teeth. The bigger the molecules of this pigment exist on your teeth, the darker they appear. Peroxide gels work by forming hydrogen peroxide as their end product, which breaks down to water, oxygen and a series of byproducts called “bleaching factors” that result in lighter, whiter teeth.

Clinical Research Associates (CRA) as well as other researchers have found that the gel found in conventional whitening trays are only fully active for around half an hour, thanks to a rapid contamination of the peroxide gel by your own saliva. The enzymes within your saliva are capable of destroying the peroxide as it is working to lighten your teeth, making them far less effective than they would be otherwise. That’s why KöR Whitening trays are specifically designed to seal saliva and other fluid out of the whitening trays to provide not just 30 minutes but an amazing 6 to 10 hours of whitening power!

When you visit Fair Lakes Family and Cosmetic Dentistry for whitening treatment, we will provide you with peroxide gel and these specially designed trays to use at home, followed by a 90-minute session in our office to reveal a smile that is truly radiant!

Professional Teeth Whitening Vs. Over-The-Counter Treatments

Most over-the-counter teeth whitening treatments will promise easy-to-use methods with spectacular results, but as many of our patients have discovered prior to visiting our office, these promises are rarely ever met. Instead, these over-the-counter treatments are uncomfortable, goopy and, when they produce visible results at all, only last for a matter of days or even mere hours before the whole process must be repeated again.

This unpredictability in results and uncomfortable application methods occur for one simple reason: over-the-counter methods simply cannot provide the same potency and effectiveness of treatment as a licensed, experienced dental professional. Because these treatments are designed especially for use by experts, these teeth whitening systems are not just composed of more effective chemicals, but they also are designed to be a more comfortable, long-lasting treatment process. If you’re looking for treatments that last, the only real option is to trust your smile to the hands of professionals with access to more viable forms of teeth whitening treatments.
