Enlighten Evolution Whitening

Our practice has been accredited as an Enlighten Evolution Professional Teeth Whitening centre

Enlighten Evolution has been called the biggest breakthrough in Tooth Whitening in the last 15 years

It is the only system in the world to guarantee that the teeth will get to a ÒVITA shade B1Ó which is the whitest shade on a regular dentist shade guide

The teeth look really naturally white after the treatment Ð unlike treatment where porcelain is used like veneers or crowns

The breakthrough is that the guarantee applies to every single patient regardless of starting colour, age, lifestyle or dietary habits

The procedure is simple and takes 2 weeks for 95% of patients. The dentist takes a special super accurate impression of your teeth and sends this to Enlighten EvolutionÕs dedicated lab where new Òsuper sealedÓ bleaching trays are made Ð (these trays were originally invented by a Los Angeles dentist in his own practice)

The patient wears the trays for 14 nights and then visits the dentist on the 15th day for a 40 minute in surgery session.

Amazingly the concentration of the gel the dentist uses in the Enlighten Evolution system is a quarter the concentration of most other whitening systems. This is possible due to the increase in permeability achieved by using the super sealed trays.

Results last indefinitely as long as you wear the trays 6 nights a year after your treatment. There arenÕt even any special dietary instructions so you can keep drinking coffee and red wine

In the past, many people who bleached their teeth were forced to live with dingy-looking enamel because no additional amount of bleaching would change the colour of their teeth.

With Enlighten Evolution, there are no limits to a dazzling smile. This method gets teeth whiter and helps people who have had tough stains or bleach resistant teeth to get their smiles as white as they would like. Most importantly, Enlighten Evolution is safe and long lasting.

How does it work?

1st - We take impressions of the teeth to make custom fitting Super Seal trays. These have a double-layer for excepional fit and are unique to Enlighten Evolution system.

2nd - You wear the Super Seal trays ½ to 2 hours a day for 2 weeks. At this same initial appointment we do the first segment of Laser whitening treatment.

3rd - The special In-Office appointment!

A) - We "prime" the teeth for better whitening.

B) - Then we use the intensity of a laser and a special peroxide to whiten them.

C) - Finally we "seal" them so that they will stay white. Ofcourse, you can always continue to whiten your teeth once a week or month or follow up with another laser whitening in 6 months to a year.

Enlighten Evolution At Home

You should apply the Enlighten Evolution trays immediately before you sleep. If you read or watch TV in bed, wait to apply the trays until you're ready to turn off the light. Before you apply the trays, however, we recommend that you take Aleve, Advil, or a similar over-the-counter inflammatory medication to control possible inflammation and soreness. We also suggest that you brush your teeth with whitening toothpaste, such as Rembrandt Plus, or if you have sensitive teeth, Rembrandt for Sensitive Teeth. This helps start the bleaching process and stops protein in your saliva from inhibiting the bleaching agent.

When you're ready to apply the trays, squeeze the bleaching gel into each reservoir on the inner side of the outer walls of the trays. Place the tray in your mouth and firmly push it against the teeth to seal it to the gum. If you use too much bleaching gel, use a tissue to wipe away any excess that leaks out from the trays. If you've used too little, you will be able to see through the tray and the reservoirs will only be partially full. If this happens, DON'T REMOVE THE TRAY. Instead, apply more gel to your trays the next night.

In the morning, remove the trays and rinse your mouth with lukewarm water. Your teeth may be sensitive to hot or cold. You should also clean the trays with cotton swabs under running water and place them carefully in their storage cases. Store the case in a safe, cool place for the next night.

What To Expect After Enlighten Evolution

We recommend that you wear the trays for fourteen consecutive nights or until your final office bleaching session if your appointment is scheduled for longer than fourteen days. If possible, avoid skipping nights since this slows the whitening process. During this time, we also recommend that you stay away from foods, drinks, and other products (such as tobacco) that may stain your teeth. Since your teeth are conditioned to absorb more oxygen, they will also absorb any stain causing agents.

Your teeth and gums may be sore and sensitive during the first three to four nights that you wear the rays. That's why we recommend taking an over-the-counter pain reliever, such as Advil. If the soreness and sensitivity does not pass after four days, call our office to talk to the dentist.

You may also notice white spots on your teeth or dark areas near the gum line. Or your tooth colour may appear too chalky or your lower teeth are lighter than your upper teeth. Don't worry. These are all normal effects of bleaching and the colour will even out by the final bleaching session.

Maintaining Your Beautiful Smile

When you come in for your final bleaching session, we will apply a clear, glossy protective coating to your teeth. This will help maintain the color for a long time. If you have leftover bleaching solution, we recommend that you store the remaining gel syringes in the refrigerator to use for future touch-ups.

The Enlighten Evolution treatment will help you have a brilliantly white smile for many months. To maintain the colour, we recommend using Rembrandt brand toothpaste. They use a natural enzyme from the papaya fruit to dissolve away the stains, so your teeth stay very glossy on the surface and won't absorb stains quickly. Rembrandt toothpastes also have bleaching agents in them to keep your tooth colour stable. We also recommend wearing the bleaching trays for one night at least every four months.

If you have stained and discoloured teeth and want your smile to be the whitest, brightest it can be, talk to the dentist to see if the Enlighten Evolution technique is right for you. We know you are going to be thrilled with the result.

This is a revolutionary new technique to get your teeth their absolute whitest they can ever be! Candidates for this treatment are those with deep discolorations, previous failed bleach results, tetracycline stains, and those who want the best and guaranteed whitest shade they can ever get thru bleaching!
