Colgate - You have gotten tubes of their toothpaste from your dentists for years, perhaps their toothbrushes as well - Now they have a teeth whitening kit
By Staff Writer - Teeth Whitening CheaperWhiteTeeth News
You know they make quality, clinically tested products endorsed by the American Dental Association.
But did you know Colgate has a Take Home whitening kit? Maybe not, because you cant get it in stores, or on the internet. It is only available from your oral care professional by prescription.
The next time you are in the dentists clinic, ask about Colgate Visible White Take-Home Kits. See if your dentist will prescribe it for your teeth whitening needs.
Why does Colgate choose to offer products only through your dentist? The manufactures of the Colgate Visible White Take-Home Kit believe that your dentist is the best judge of what is best for you and your teeth. He or she knows if you have crowns, caps, veneers or other dental work. They also can examine your teeth and gums to determine if they are healthy enough for whitening procedures.
To get the deep down in the enamel stains caused by age and years of drinking coffee, red wines, and teas, or by using tobacco, you need to use a formula of hydrogen peroxide. That is a chemical bleaching agent and using it can cause tooth sensitivity and gum irritation.
Sure, you can go online and spend mega bucks on a whitening kit that they will be happy to ship you every month and bill your credit card, or you can pick up one in the toothbrush aisle from another manufacturer. But only your dentist can tell you what strength is the best to use. Many of the other brands don't tell you up front how much hydrogen peroxide they have in their gels.
With Colgate Visible White Take-Home Kit, your dentist can choose from three strengths in two flavors - Mint or Melon.
- 5% Hydrogen Peroxide for normal whitening
- 7% for cleaning tougher stains
- 9% to get the toughest, long set-in stains
Each kit comes with four sanitary, individually packaged syringes of gel, about 3.11 grams each. That is enough to fill the specially molded tray your dentist will give you as part of the kit. The tray will be designed for your individual bite, not a one size fits all that can be hard to keep in your mouth, dig into your gums or feel uncomfortable to use. You also get very easy to follow instructions. It all comes in a handy zippered red case so everything is kept right where you need it, dust free.
Unlike some other whitening kits that you have to wear for an hour or so for 5-7 days, Colgate Visible White Take-Home Kits require just 30-minutes a day for three days.
That means more whitening power with less contact to sensitive teeth and gums. Less is always a better deal, as long as it delivers the same results.
If you do need touch up treatment, there are kits with two syringes in the same variety of flavors and strengths. Your dentist and you will together decide that.
Close supervision, the right amount of hydrogen peroxide, and an individually molded tray are the keys to a successful whitening experience. Colgate Visible White Take-Home Kit provides all three. Your dentist and staff has been thoroughly educated on these products from Colgate. They will guide you through the process and decide the right strength for you.
