Indications for Use

Opalescence Go™

Opalescence™ whitening has been shown to effectively lighten the internal colors of teeth. In cases of tetracycline, adult monocycline stains and brown fluorosis discoloration, Opalescence whitening has obtained success of varying degrees. This is also true for discolorations caused by congenital, systemic, metabolic, pharmacological, traumatic or iatrogenic factors, erythroblastosis fetalis, jaundice and porphyria. Peroxide is a strong oxidizing agent. Bleaching occurs when the peroxide penetrates the enamel and dentin, oxidizing the offending stains within the tooth. Whitening occurs first and more rapidly with the enamel. For example, most tetracycline stains occur within the dentin and require more time to oxidize (whiten).1,2

Technical Details

UltraFit™ Tray

The UltraFit tray is made of a unique, highly adaptable material that comfortably conforms to any patient’s arches. The tray material responds to the internal body temperature of the patient and begins to mold around the occlusal surfaces and into the interproximal spaces. The UltraFit tray also provides superior coverage buccal to lingual and ensures that the maximum amount of whitening gel remains on the teeth during whitening.

Convenient Ready-To-Go Whitening

For the patient who demands the convenience of a whitening treatment that can be performed anywhere, Opalescence Go whitening is the answer. With no need for custom trays or extra accessories, Opalescence Go whitening can easily be carried in a pocket or bag, and its discreet tray material makes it possible to whiten with Opalescence Go whitening just about anywhere.

Patented Sticky, Viscous Gel

It’s important that patients be comfortable while they whiten so they’ll be consistent with their treatments. With Opalescence whitening, your patients don’t have to worry about gel ending up where it’s not supposed to go. Our original, patented formula is sticky and viscous, so it stays where it’s placed, preventing the gel from migrating during treatment and helping keep the custom tray in place.

Superior Stability

Opalescence whitening products are among the most stable whitening products in the industry, each maintaining virtually all of its effectiveness over the course of its shelf life.3,4 Because delivery times vary depending on the location of each particular dental office, Opalescence whitening products are formulated with transit time in mind, so they remain stable even after being shipped across the country. In fact, stability studies performed on Opalescence tooth whitening gels have shown that the peroxide potency at the end of the product’s shelf life is consistently 90% or greater.

Formulated with High Water Content

Many whitening products on the market dehydrate teeth, resulting in uncomfortable sensitivity for patients. Opalescence Go whitening is formulated with a high water content to keep the teeth hydrated during the whitening process. This high water content reduces shade relapse and dehydration to maximize patient comfort.

Gluten Free and Kosher Certified

Opalescence whitening products are gluten free and kosher certified, so they fit in with the lifestyles and beliefs of patients from any background.

Sweetened with Xylitol

Every Opalescence whitening product is sweetened with xylitol, a noncariogenic sweetener, to promote increased oral health.

Perfectly Balanced pH

Because tooth whitening gel can be in the mouth for several hours at a time, it’s important to use a product with a pH that closely matches the natural pH of a patient’s saliva. When the mouth has a lower pH (between 5.5 and 6.5), bacteria can begin to flourish. Opalescence Go whitening is specially formulated with the patient’s experience in mind.

Sold Directly to Licensed Dental Professionals Only

Ultradent Products, Inc. is committed to supporting the dental community. Because tooth whitening is most successful when supervised by a dentist, Opalescence whitening is sold directly to licensed dental professionals only. It’s important for dentists to ensure their patients understand the whitening procedure, have realistic expectations of the outcome, and have an enjoyable experience so they are pleased with the final result.

Easily Combined with Other Opalescence Whitening Products for Customized Treatments

While each Opalescence whitening product is effective in a stand-alone whitening regimen, many patients prefer to use a combination of treatments or products to meet their needs. Because every Opalescence whitening product works in combination with the others, it’s easy to create a custom regimen for any patient.

Unmatched Quality

The names Opalescence whitening and Ultradent are synonymous with quality. All of our research and development is done in-house. So is our manufacturing and quality control. This allows us to guide and oversee the entire process—from the time an Opalescence whitening innovation is conceived to the time it’s created and packaged for shipping. We have met the strictest standards, and our facility is ISO 9001 certified. All of this ensures every product performs exactly as it’s supposed to for you and for your patients.

Made in the USA

Opalescence whitening gels and syringes are manufactured at Ultradent’s facility in Utah. By purchasing products manufactured in the USA, you’re supporting our nation’s economy, and you’re helping to provide jobs for hundreds of Americans who take pride in what they do. Buying from a USA company like Ultradent also means you’ll get fresh formulations right from our own facility—not a product that may have been held up or delayed by a third-party.

FAQs

  • How does whitening work?

    Peroxide gels break down into water, oxygen, and free radicals, which in turn oxidizes the bonds of colored molecules that cause tooth discoloration.

    Free radicals are able to migrate throughout the tooth, so there is no need for the entire tooth to be in contact with whitening agent for the entire tooth to be whitened.

  • Will whitening affect bond strength?

    Even though whitening agents release a great amount of oxygen into the tooth, existing bonds are not weakened.5,6

    If whitening before bonding, allow a period of 7–10 days after whitening. The high concentration of oxygen in the tooth could significantly and adversely affect polymerization of the resins.7,8

  • How long do whitening results last?

    Whitening results are very stable, but depending on the patient’s nutrition and lifestyle habits, the procedure may need to be redone periodically. Due to the safety of the whitening agents, this should not concern the dentist or patient.

  • Will whitening cause tooth 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 Formula can also be used to help to prevent or lessen sensitivity if it occurs.
