LovelySmiles has a very low level of Hydrogen Peroxide (HP) but has added ingredients to strengthen the enamel. These ingredients are used in many dental products for people with poor or no enamel issues. So not only is LovelySmiles product safer but it also adds strength to one’s tooth. No other product or teeth whitening system does that.

When LovelySmiles’ unique formula was developed, it addressed the issue of Hydrogen Peroxide (HP). Over the years the HP (or carbide peroxide (CP) levels have been too strong and still are. The higher strengths of HP can, in fact, damage the enamel but at the end of the day, HP can do that to anything. It is the strength of the HP that is important. We actually don’t need to use high levels of HP to whiten teeth. It is a myth that the stronger the HP, the whiter the tooth. This old information is long gone but unfortunately for some reason people perceive this to be true.

If you have any concerns please discuss with your Aesthetician before you begin your treatment.

Teeth come in many colours. Some have a yellowish tone,some orange,some brown and some grey. The outside of the teeth, the enamel, is clear and glass-like.The colour that you see show through from the teeth structure under the enamel is called dentin. Dentin is the classified tooth bone just below the enamel. To whiten teeth, an oxygen action type whitening gel is applied to the front of the teeth to be whitened. Then whitening Accelerator Light system is applied to activate a fast safe whitening action.This whitening accelerator system powerfully accelerates the whitening process by high intensity blue light activating the gel within the microscopic pores in the tooth enamel as the whitening gel penetrates the clear tooth enamel bleaching out staining during the gels migration towards the dentin.

Although LovelySmiles uses its own gel, which is proven to be sensitivity-free and painless, every individual is different and no two people respond to the treatment the same. If one does experience sensitivity then this maybe due to personal mitigating factors of the individual. Note that if there is any such sensation, these should not be overwhelming compared to traditional teeth whitening systems (and products) and should settle down within a day.

If you have sensitive teeth already, it may pay to brush your teeth with Sensodyne toothpaste for 3 to 4 days prior to your treatment to reduce any possible sensitivity.

Do not eat, drink or brush your teeth for a minimum of 2 hours prior to your treatment.

For 24 hours after the treatment:

• Do not eat or drink dark, staining substances such as: coffee, tea, red wine, soy sauce and cola
• Do not eat staining foods such as: beetroot, carrots, blueberries, etc
• Do not smoke cigarettes or use any tobacco containing products
• Do not use coloured toothpaste

MAKE SURE YOU DRINK LOTS OF WATER AFTERWARDS TO HYDRATE THE MOUTH & TEETH. THIS WILL HELP CLOSE THE OPEN PORES ON THE ENAMEL.

White food suggestions:

One of the biggest issues with teeth whitening is the tendency for the teeth to stain again over time, especially in the first 24 hours of the clinical whitening process. Dentists call this relapse. Most dentists deal with this by having the patient return for another whitening session or use at-home treatments that are very unpleasant and expensive.

LovelySmiles highly recommends our clients to use daily the 3 in 1 Teeth Whitening Pen to help maintain their new whiter and brighter smile. Your aesthetician will explain to you how to use the teeth whitening pen.

 

Depending on the stains on your teeth, you may require a second treatment. It’s ideal to have a second treatment within the 2 weeks of your initial consultation.
