I’ve recently implemented a type of teeth whitening process in my office called Deep Bleaching tm. This technique was pioneered by Dr. Rod Kurthy about 3 years ago. Initially, I thought this was just a smoke and mirrors combination of Home and Office bleaching. Upon careful review; I’ve come to realize that this technique truly offers the finest, often unparalleled results to conventional methods. Sometimes the color is whiter than spending thousands of dollars on porcelain veneers or crowns!

First, this technique utilized a home bleaching tray that is meticulously crafted. The dental staff truly spends a good 5 times more time than with previously made bleaching trays. The procedure takes three office visits and the first one is spent taking impressions for these home bleaching trays.

The 2nd visit is a “conditioning” visit, where the patients dental trays are used to condition the teeth to receive the home bleaching gel. This visit takes less than an hour; which includes precise instructions for home delivery of the bleaching gel. The patient must bleach at home for 14 nights. One of the other KEY differences from common home bleaching is that a very effective desensitizing agent is applied prior to each home usage. This way, nearly all patients can use a very effective bleaching gel at home w/ little or zero sensitivity.

After 14 days at home is the 2nd In Office visit is when we see results that are often astonishing. Just look at some of the results that have been achieved in these photographs below.

These spectacular results must be maintained in order to endure. We advise our patients to use their home trays no less than once every 2 months to keep this dazzling white smile!
