PART 1 – REJUVENATE YOUR SMILE WITH EXTREME WHITE

Teeth bleaching has been around since Roman times. It certainly is nothing new. But there is a lot new in what is known about how teeth bleaching works. It’s not all that simple to understand, but with Extreme White Teeth Whitening concept, it is easy to accomplish. We supply the tools for you to rejuvenate your smile in your favorite spa or salon.

SCIENCE, THE NOT-SO-SIMPLE PART

Research has shown that there are five elements to successful teeth whitening. The more of these factors included in a bleaching treatment, the greater the results that treatment will achieve. These five factors are:Peroxide | Light | Pressure | Heat | Exposure

Peroxide | This is the active ingredient in virtually all dental whitening products.It comes in many forms, but ultimately breaks down to hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide reacts with light and oxygen to form hydroxyl radicals, which penetrates the tooth structure, breaking down stains into progressively smaller particles as they go. So far, so good.

But peroxide is strong stuff, and can burn gums and cause tooth sensitivity. Typically, this is dealt with simply by diluting the peroxide; the lower the concentration of peroxide, the fewer the side effects, but the less effective it is at whitening teeth. The main reason for the side effects is that the pH (degree of acidity or alkalinity) of peroxide is too far away from neutral. Some tooth bleach manufacturers artificially lower the pH of their peroxide to make it more stable. But this increases its side effects. There is a better way.

Light | The conversion of hydrogen peroxide to hydroxyl radicals can be accelerated and sustained by exposure to certain wavelengths of light, basically from 400 to 560 nanometers. This is well within the safe visible light spectrum, far away from dangerous ultraviolet light. By exposing the teeth to light concentrated in this spectrum while the peroxide is on the teeth, the whitening action is accelerated and intensified, increasing the release of hydroxyl radicals, even with neutral pH peroxide.

Pressure | Peroxide is of little value if it doesn’t get into the structure of the tooth. Mild pressure is required to accomplish this. Dentists apply pressure by molding a tray that is custom to fit your teeth. The peroxide gel is placed in the tray, and forced into place. Extreme White accomplishes this action with a patented pressure pad that forms to the shape of your teeth without the need for an expensive, custom tray.

Heat | Peroxide becomes more active as it heats up, releasing more of its powerful hydroxyl radicals than would occur at lower temperatures.

Exposure | The longer you expose your teeth to the combination of peroxide, light, heat and pressure the whiter your teeth will get – to a point. Peroxide eventually breaks down into water. It “wears out” rather quickly, and the more light and heat it is exposed to, the faster it wears out. So a balance must be struck between repetition of applications and exposure time.

IMPLEMENTATION, THE SIMPLE PART

Peroxide | Innovative, patented foam pads are saturated with especially formulated neutral pH peroxide gel, and the foam pads collect the stain material as it breaks down, so you remove the stains when you remove pads.

Light | An advanced, spectrum-controlled light specifically developed for the Extreme White process is positioned to apply its energy just outside of a clear lens positioned between the teeth. This unique, patented lens not only acts to guide the light into the peroxide, it also helps with delivering the next factor:

Pressure | The pads are placed into pressure pockets in the lens, which squeezes them between the lens and teeth, forcing the peroxide gel into the tooth structure.

Heat | The combination of the foam pads, pressure, and light streaming through the lens reacts with the internal mouth temperature (that is where the doctor takes your temperature, after all) to raise the temperature of the peroxide.

Exposure | For most people, one or two Extreme White sessions of 12 to 15 minutes each is sufficient.
