Dissolving Whitening Strips

How do whitening strips differ from trays (kits)?

Whats more, each strip already contains the optimum amount of whitening gel so its less hassle for you and helps to ensure you achieve an even white smile.

Can the whitening strips be in contact with my gums?

Yes, but such contact should be minimised to avoid gum irritation.

Professional Whitening Strips

Teeth Whitening Questions

Will I get even results?

Each strip contains the exact amount of whitening gel to effectively whiten your teeth. Each strip should be positioned across the teeth and gently pressed into place, aiming to get maximum contact with all of your visible teeth. This will ensure even spread of the whitening gel.

Will the strips affect my dental work?

The whitening strips will ONLY whiten natural teeth; they will not affect caps, crowns, veneers, bridges, fillings or dentures. Do not use on loose teeth, temporary fillings or Orthodontic appliances. Consult your dentist if you have any dental concerns.

Are whitening strips suitable for everyone?

Though the whitening strips are non-harmful to the human body, it is advised that children under the age of 16 (18 in the European Union due to this being a legal requirement), pregnant women, and those sensitive to hydrogen peroxide should not use them. Patients with teeth sensitive to cold, heat or acid, or those who suffer from oral ulceration should discuss this with their prescribing dentist before undergoing a course of whitening treatment.

If white spots appear will they go or are they permanent?

No. These white spots are temporary; they are not harmful and will disappear within 24 hours.

What If I experience tooth sensitivity or gum irritation?

It is not uncommon to experience tooth sensitivity and / or gum irritation whilst whitening your teeth. This is temporary and NOT harmful. To alleviate symptoms it may be sensible to whiten your teeth on alternate days, until you have used all of the strips. If the problem persists, discontinue use and consult your dentist.

Why can’t I buy teeth whitening gel online?

The active ingredient in teeth whitening gel is hydrogen peroxide, which is a safe and effective means of whitening your teeth, however In the UK and throughout Europe it can only be purchased from a dentist for use under their direct supervision.

This is because before undertaking any form of whitening treatment it is essential that you have a full dental examination to ensure it is safe and you have no contraindications to having your teeth whitened.

Can I use a whitening toothpaste everyday?

Yes, you can use WhiteWash Whitening toothpastes like you would use your normal toothpaste.

However this is not always the case with all whitening toothpastes as some can be extremely abrasive, so it is best to check with the specific toothpaste manufacturer.

Do you have any guidance on maintaining my white smile?
