Over-the-counter
Over-the-counter whitening is done
using standard
fitted trays that are not customized. It also includes
all forms of supermarket whitening & add-ons.
| Here is why
you want to choose this option: |
 |
You are currently undergoing orthodontic
treatment
Braces
usually makes it impossible to create custom-fitted trays and these standard trays are easily
moulded around the brackets.
|
|
You have a tight
budget
Over-the-counter whitening will usually be the most cost effective
option, but also provides the poorest results. As the whitening trays or
standard products are not customized, it does not seal-off saliva leakage into the
trays. This causes a diluting effect and a sub-standard result. Longer wear times
are indicated for better results.
|
|
You cannot
see the dentist, but want whiter teeth
This option does not require you to see the dentist and you can purchase
this straight away over-the-counter.
Please note that our Unlimited Whitening option can also be done without the dental
visit and still provide customized trays for a superior
result!

toothpastes, mouthrinses and other daily oral Hygiene products.
Although these cannot really whiten your teeth, it will still aid in some small way to maintain a
whiter smile. |
