Whitening Sensitive Teeth From A Customers Perspective

Which Teeth Whitening Product Is Best for Sensitive Teeth?

For those who experience sensitive teeth, teeth whitening can also cause discomfort. Using a teeth whitening gel that includes Potassium Nitrate will minimize tooth sensitivity, while still achieving a whiter-brighter smile. 

It's important to consult with a dental professional before you decide to whiten your teeth. With proper oral care and the Celebrity White teeth whitening kit you can achieve a brighter-whiter smile while also maintaining the health and comfort of your teeth.

A Brief History Of Teeth Whitening

In theory, the desire to whiten one's teeth may seem like a modern phenomenon.The practice of tooth whitening is almost 4000 years old, dating back to the ancient Egyptians, a race of people known for their fixation with youth, beauty and opulence. They made use of hand-blended pastes and concoctions made from natural ingredients such as plants and herbs to whiten their smiles. 

Later on, Ancient Romans will go so far as to use the ammonia in their urine to get that much-desired brighter smile. Throughout time, oral care practices shift and change, and in the 17th century, we see people beginning to rely on their barbers to file down their teeth and apply acid to them to whiten the teeth. It was soon discovered that this acid was destroying people's enamel and the archaic practice faded into history.

Modern Practices & Sensitive Teeth

Today, some modern teeth whitening products have been known to use damaging and harsh ingredients, harsh bleach as their whitening agents. Many ingredients in teeth whitening products can damage your tooth enamel. Harsh ingredients included in many oral care products can cause tooth sensitivity, and even receding gums. It’s possible to achieve a bright-white smile, while removing surface stains when using the Celebrity White teeth whitening kit which is created for people who experience sensitive teeth.

Celebrity White - Why Choose Us?

Choosing oral hygiene products can be daunting, we understand! Celebrity White's Teeth whitening treatment equips you with professional whitening ingredients to halt sensitive teeth. 

The main ingredient in Celebrity White gel is Carbamide Peroxide. This ingredient is known to remove surface stains around teeth and crowns.  Carbamide Peroxide also breaks down more slowly than Hydrogen Peroxide which means that after using a ten or fifteen minute whitening session you may notice over the next six hours that your teeth are even whiter than when you ended your whitening session. Another main ingredient in the Celebrity Smiles whitening gel is Potassium Nitrate which coats the microscopic tubules inside your teeth and halts tooth sensitivity. 

At Celebrity White, we developed a whitening product which, unlike any other teeth whitening ingredients, employs the use of both our dental-grade, sensitivity-free whitening gel, anduses LED red and blue lights.

How Does Celebrity White Work?

Blue and Red LED lights react in tandem with the special sensitivity-free ingredients to kick start your whitening process. Blue LED lights work as an antiseptic, meaning that regular use can help to create a healthier oral environment with reports of less plaque build-up after use.1

The red LED light is applied, also using the waterproof mouthpiece. The red LED light promotes healing and eliminates any chance of experiencing uncomfortable tooth or gum sensitivity. Our special gel formula has active ingredients which work together and act against any potential tooth sensitivity. Alongside this, the use of a targeted whitening pen to disperse the gel means that the least amount of product possible is used. This means your product lasts longer and you risk less chance of the gel moving onto your gums which helps to further avoid tooth sensitivity.2 

Our whitening gel is a blended dental-grade formula and works effectively to reduce stains and avoid oral sensitivity.

The Powerful Formula

Carbamide Peroxide (35%) This is the main ingredient that works to whiten your teeth. Glycerol or Glycerin (21%) acts as an excellent solvent. Propylene Glycol (19%) used as a skin conditioning agent. Deionized Water (12.2%) is water purified by a chemical filtration system that has had its mineral ions such as calcium, sodium, iron, copper, chloride, and bromide removed. Deionized water is extremely purified and slightly better than plain or distilled water. Potassium Nitrate (6%) an organic compound known to help reduce tooth sensitivity by calming the nerve fibres in the teeth. The Journal of the American Dental Association states that dental products containing potassium nitrate as an active ingredient work by blocking the transmission of pain from your tooth to your brain. Carbomer (3%) helps to control the consistency and flow of the product, as well as provide a smooth, silky texture. Carboxymethyl or Cellulose Gum (2%) comes from the cell walls of plants, and it helps create a creamy or smoothness to beauty products. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (1%) is used as a binder. It helps the ingredients work together in harmony. This is non-toxic. Menthol (0.5%) helps to cool and relieve any possibility of discomfort. Sodium Hydroxide (0.3%) serves as an anticaking agent to avoid clumping. It also helps improve the texture and shelf life of the product ingredients.
