Option 2
Opalescence Customized Home Tray

How does it work?
Your dentist will take impressions of your tooth that will allow for custom trays to be made for your bleaching procedure. The Opalescence gel is placed in thin, comfortable trays and fitted over your tooth. As you whiten your tooth, carbamide peroxide is broken down and oxygen enters the enamel and dentine. This bleaches out the discolored areas. The structure of the tooth is not changed. The colour of the tooth is simply made lighter.
Is It Safe?
Whitening your tooth, under the supervision of your dentist, has been proven safe in clinical studies over a period of many years. The primary ingredient in Opalescence is carbamide peroxide, which has been safely used to brighten the smiles of millions of people worldwide.
When will I see results?
Results are often seen after one night. Optimum natural whiteness usually occurs when the process is continued for a week to 10 days. Your dentist will go over what you can expect for your individual situation.

More Teeth Whitening information..
Whitening procedures have effectively restored the smile of people with stained, dull, or discolored tooth.
The darker tissue of your tooth, the dentin, can become exposed as the outer layer of enamel is worn away by the effects of aging or things like caffeine and tobacco.
Food particles are naturally attracted to a tooth's enamel by a certain protein. Products like coffee and tea, berries and soy sauce are notorious for staining tooth. Over time, tooth actually become more absorbent and vulnerable to staining from food and other substances.
One type of stain-caused by traumatic injuries, medications and fluorosis-actually begins inside the tooth; brushing and flossing do not help. Another type of stain, one that can be more easily attached by brushing, flossing and rinsing-is caused by external factors such as foods.
More and more people today are choosing tooth-whitening procedures to reverse the effects of aging and abuse from food and tobacco stains.
Whitening agents actually change the color of your tooth, but only are effective on certain types of stains. For example, bleaching agents have a difficult time removing brownish or grayish stains. These products also are not as effective on pitted or badly discolored tooth, or on restorations such as crowns, bridges, bonding and tooth-colored fillings (porcelain veneers or dental bonding may be more appropriate in this case).
