Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / February 2005Tooth whitening: for doctors.
Hi, I am an italian dentist and I need to know which is the best ligh for bleaching in the office. I heard about the disigned light for Zoom whitening gel by Discus Dental but it is very expensive and I want to be sure it worth the money. Thanks you very much and best regards. Carol Current thinking is that lights do not make the teeth any whiter. However it can shorten treatment time.

Power office bleaching systems work faster than take home trays, but not better. If you want whiter teeth *today* and you don't care how much money you spend, knock yourself out. Otherwise get take home trays and save a bundle. 6 months from now nobody will be able to tell which bleaching system you used.

Have gotten many patients 'off the chart' (whiter than the Vita guide) into the Illumine guide with the zoom system.

Once the tooth dessicates (about an hour after they've left your office), that "off the chart" tooth looks just like the tray-bleached tooth. Fawks said that 6 months later you can't tell the lasered teeth from the tray-bleached teeth. I almost agree. Except for the fact that the tray-bleached teeth are whiter 6 months out than the one-appointment laser bleached ones. Every dentist that I know who has invested in the in-office systems either: a) has the patient back for a second or third visit, or b) gives the patient take-home trays to continue bleaching with. This is a great way for a patient to whiten, and help a child. Smiles for Life Who benefits? Everyone! You save while getting a bright, new smile. The kids get the money. Dentists take pride in knowing that the time they dedicate will put smiles on the faces of thousands of children in need. How do I Know that all of my money is being donated? Crown Council dental teams donate their services, and Discus Dental donates all of the whitening supplies. When you pay for your whitening, you write a check to the Smiles for Life Foundation, not to the dentist.

What do they look like 6 months later? According to CRA, you can't tell any difference between systems by that time. Do you send patients home with trays for maintenance? Also, as far as the light is concerned, have you ever tried two at the same time...one with the light and one without...to see if there is any difference?

Steve Weinberg of DEN-MAT came up here a couple of years ago and told us of his own method of tooth whitening. 1) Photos before 2) Good ol' silicone gum protection, and then HEAT the teeth with 2X2's soaked in hot water. Then apply the H2O2 to the teeth. Wait, rinse, repeat as needed. 3) Photos after 4)Send them home with trays anyways... Using this logic, I could use a heat lamp in front of the patient's face and it would do the same as your ZooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmMMMM... 'ceptin' the patient would sweat all over his teeth... SP SignatureNot a real Addy, yet Oops! I missed the part about being a dentist! Anyway, the basic statements are true. Lights are for show. If you want that as part of the 'song & dance', fine. CRA has had several articles on bleaching which have not shown any light, bleach, or system to be superior for long term results.
