Opalescence at Home Teeth Whitening - Teeth Whitening Gel Syringes - 4 Pack of 35% Syringes - Mint

Arrived on time. Informed by email when it had been shipped. Which is useful. Only used it a couple of times. However if it is what I ordered it will do a very good job at whitening my teeth as I have used it before.

These whiten more in one 45 minute session than a week of using those white strips! It can burn if too much is used and it gets on my gums, but I remedy that by applying the gel to the bottom of my retainer, and the products coats my teeth from the bottom up after I insert my retainer. I’m on my second purchase (5th tube) and I can’t see myself ever going back to white strips!

So I was a little worried about buying this due to some of the reviews. This was a product my dentist gave me a two years ago when I 1st whitened my teeth. I was very happy with the results and took home a kit. Now I’m a stay at home mom and would only use the stuff to brighten my teeth for special occasions and just to maintain white teeth so the kit I was given lasted 6 months. When I went back and purchased a refill they gave me another product that I hated and did not work the same. So I stopped buying it. And my teeth even with other whitening products just never were as white as with this original product. So I was so delighted to have found it on amazon. I used it once for an hour and my teeth are so much whiter and brighter like two years ago! I never leave the trays in longer than an hour and per dentist orders two years ago when I 1st received this product a little goes a long way. And that is so true you only need a little in your trays for the magic to work. I’m so happy with my purchase. I also bought the tooth paste to help between whitening. I love the tooth paste as well! Now as far as sensitivity I will touch on that because even the dentist two years ago said a lot of people have trouble with the sensitivity in their teeth with this product. I personally didn’t have this problem. But I also use it in moderation. Over all I’m happy I found this and will be buying again in the future. My teeth are happy and bright again and I can enjoy my morning coffee and not worry about the stains it might leave on my teeth!

This product does what it is supposed to and will whiten teeth. It does make my teeth and gums sensitive and I graded down one star for that. And what I hadn’t know in the past is it is supposed to refrigerated! So I can only use occasionally due to teeth sensitivity (and I do use a desensitizer afterwords).

Warnings: As many others have stated, the 35% is not for the uneducated. Read The Factory Manual. You absolutely need custom made dental trays for this stuff, as you dont want it oozing up onto your gums. Leave it on for no longer than the recommended 30 minutes the first time to determine your sensitivity level. Results: I just quit smoking after 20 years, and my teeth were horribly yellowed. After about two tubes of this, theyre amazingly brighter and whiter. I use about a third of a tube per each application even doing ALL of my teeth both inside AND out (yes, I have OCD). Still some yellowing at the base of the teeth that I hope to clear, but my dentist says that in older (?!) adults, that could be the dentin (naturally yellowish layer beneath the enamel) showing through. I will begin a more strict regimen of applying this stuff (Ive been a bit sporadic) and hope to find that its staining from a lifetime of bad habits. If youre considering 35% versus a lower strength, consider in terms of your patience and/or desire to sleep with trays in your mouth. I tried 15% several years ago, and just ended up not really using it because I hated having the trays in my mouth overnight. Seller: Absolutely A+ for the company filling the order. The product arrives quickly, is exactly as advertised, and is fresh. My most recent order arrived May 30, 2014 and had R046 on the syringe, which means R=Lot Identifier, 04=April, and 6=2016. So Ive got about two years to use this stuff! For those that arent sure of the expiration date coding, this quote is straight from Ultradents product sheet: Ultradent syringes have an expiration date stamped on the side of the syringe consisting of one letter and three numbers. The letter is a lot number used for manufacturing purposes and the three numbers are the expiration date. The first two numbers are the month, and the third number is the last number of the year. Get smiling! :D

Make sure you do your research on the time you should have them in. My dr told me to put them on overnight in my Invisalign retainer. DONT DO THAT. It’s only meant to be a few hours at a time. If longer, it may make your gums sensitive for a couple days.

I have 3 stars soley because I am now terrified of using it again and honestly probably won’t. But I will say it does what it’s intended. I had it on for 1 minute and it hurt so bad I normally fight through pain but it was bubbling and stuff so I went to take them out and my GUMS were WHITE. And when I say white I mean WHITE WHITE. I was so terrified I didn’t have a chance to take a picture. Luckily they’re going back to normal. But if you are brave I say go for it cause obviously it will whiten. But DO NOT get it on your gums. Trust me.

The 35% works very well as long as you know what youre doing. It is a great product. If you have never used Opalescence before, even a lower percentage, youd be better off starting on lower percentage, then build up to this percentage. It does work well, it just needs to be handled correctly. Only a tiny bubble worth in each tooth cavity of mould is needed.

I used this with custom teeth trays. I can confirm this works great. But don’t use too much. You will have to learn to use the correct amount. If you use too much in a tray it will touch your gums and burn. It’s very very painful lol. I temporarily turned my lower gums white.

This teeth whitening product is fabulous! You can see a difference in the first use.
