DAYLIGHT 5K ACCELERATOR

A precision, computerized light source that emits light in the 430-470nm wavelength spectrum for optimum lightening results.

 

 

 

Peroxide 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 oxygen to form hydroxyl radicals, which penetrate the tooth structure, breaking down stains into progressively smaller particles.

 

But peroxide is strong stuff, and can burn gums and cause tooth sensitivity and porosity. Typically, this is dealt with by diluting the peroxide. The lower the concentration of peroxide, the fewer the side effects, but the less effective it is at whitening teeth.

 
 

Express Teeth Whitening has a better way. The conversion of hydrogen peroxide to hydroxyl radicals can be accelerated and sustained by exposure to certain wavelengths of light, basically from about 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 within this spectrum while the peroxide is on the teeth, the whitening action is accelerated and intensified, increasing the release of hydroxyl radicals. This allows us to utilize our patented peroxide gel, stabilized at a neutral pH, avoiding tooth sensitivity and porosity, while achieving optimum lightening results.
