Chemically Activated In-Office Whitening, No Light Needed
Some in-office whitening procedures rely on lights or lasers to activate the chemical whitening agent. However, Opalescence Pro in-office whitening relies solely on chemical activation. Studies have confirmed that the whitening agent is effective without any lasers.4, 5
Opalescence Pro teeth whitening gel’s innovative double-syringe mixing configuration ensures fresh teeth whitening gel for each application. Because the gel is chemically activated, no refrigeration is required prior to mixing.
Professional Teeth Whitening in About an Hour1
Opalescence Pro in-office teeth whitening gel is the best way to whiten teeth quickly. Start by taking an initial shade of your patient’s teeth and protect your patient’s lips and gums with an Umbrella™ tongue, lip, and cheek retractor and OpalDam™ Green resin barrier.

Depending on the results, you can reapply the gel one or two more times, for a total of two to three applications.

Procedures
Opalescence Pro Whitening Procedure
See Instructions for Use for complete instructions, warnings, and precautions.
Step 1
Ensure syringes are securely attached. Depress the small clear plunger (A) into the middle small clear syringe (B) to rupture internal membrane and combine whitener and activator. Press the plunger of the red syringe, pushing all contents into the clear syringe.
Step 2
Press the contents of the clear plunger completely back into the red syringe. To thoroughly mix activator with whitening gel, push stems back and forth continually and mix 25 times each side.
Step 3
Press all mixed gel into the red syringe. Twist to separate the two syringes and securely attach the Black Mini™ tip onto the red syringe.
Step 4
Verify flow, consistency, and red color before applying intraorally. If resistance is met, replace tip and re-check. If gel is not red, do not use and refer to Step 2 in the Use – Mixing Opalescence Pro In-Office Whitening section of IFU.
Step 5
Remove Luer lock cap from OpalDam™ resin barrier and securely attach recommended delivery tip. Verify flow prior to applying intraorally. Rinse and dry teeth and gums thoroughly. Place Ultradent IsoBlock™ bite block and Umbrella™ retractor.
Step 6
Apply OpalDam resin barrier along gingival margin, overlapping approximately 2–3 mm onto enamel. Begin and finish one tooth beyond the most distal tooth being whitened. Express through any open embrasures to completely cover exposed papilla.
Step 7
Use mouth mirror to ensure there is no exposed gingiva. If so, apply resin. Light cure using a scanning motion. Carefully check cure.
Step 8
Apply a 0.5–1.0 mm layer of gel. Allow gel to remain on the teeth 20 minutes per application, and periodically check on patient comfort and suction saliva.
Step 9
Suction gel from teeth using the Luer Vac and SST™ (Surgical Suction Tip). Do not use water to avoid gel splatter.
Step 10
When no gel is visible, lightly rinse and air dry. Do not to dislodge isolation barrier or rubber dam seal. Monitor patient for sensitivity and irritation. If persistent sensitivity occurs, discontinue use.
Step 11
Evaluate shade change after each application. Repeat steps 8–10 for no more than 3 applications. Do not exceed 3 applications per visit. Re-treat as necessary using professional judgement.
Step 12
Gently slide the tip beneath the resin barrier to remove.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
How does teeth whitening work?
Opalescence whitening gels contain a powerful whitening ingredient, either carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide. Peroxide gels break down into water, oxygen, and reactive oxygen molecules. These reactive oxygen molecules oxidize the bonds of discolored stain molecules. By changing the stained molecules, the tooth appearance becomes lighter.5
Reactive oxygen molecules permeate the entire tooth, so there is no need for the whitening agent to be in contact with every surface of the tooth for the entire tooth to be whitened.5
-
Will teeth whitening affect bond strength?
We recommend abstaining from any whitening treatments for 7–10 days before a bonding procedure.6, 7, 8 -
How long do teeth whitening results last?
Tooth whitening results can last a year or more.10, 9 Teeth whitening results are very stable, but depending on the patient’s nutrition and lifestyle habits, the procedure may need to be redone periodically. -
Will teeth whitening cause sensitivity?
Tooth sensitivity can occur as a result of whitening. If sensitivity occurs, it is transient and disappears after the completion of whitening treatments. If desensitizing treatments are desired, we recommend the use of UltraEZ™ desensitizing gel or Enamelast™ fluoride varnish. Opalescence™ Whitening Toothpaste Sensitivity Relief can also be used to help to prevent or lessen sensitivity if it occurs.
