how it works  

 

Lab-Direct Process

Extreme-white utilizes the same take-home whitening system prescribed by your dentist. The only difference is the process.  You must take your own tooth impressions with the materials included in your impression kit and mail them back to our lab with the pre-addressed envelope provided (it’s quick and easy to do). We then use your impressions to pour up stone models of your teeth and fabricate precision-fitted bleaching trays that you wear with a professional strength bleaching gel.

          
  
Custom fitted trays and bleaching gel (not shown) whiten the ENTIRE tooth surface thoroughly and evenly.


 


Taking Your Impressions 


Mix The Impression Putty Together

Remove the blue and white putty from their containers and quickly knead together until they are blended into one color (30 seconds).

Place Blended Putty in the Tray

Quickly form the putty into a hot dog shape and place it into the clear impression tray.

Take Your Impression

Press the tray up over your teeth until they are completely covered and hold still for 3-4 minutes (do one arch at a time).

BACK TO TOP

Remove and Inspect the Tray

Remove the impression from your teeth and inspect to make sure you can see all your teeth and part of your gums. Nice deep impressions work best! 

BACK TO TOP

Mail Your Impressions to Our Lab

Mail your impressions along with the customer information card to our lab using the pre-addressed envelope provided. You will receive your completed trays in 7-10 business days after your impressions are received at the lab.
 


Whitening Your Teeth

         

Once you have your completed whitening trays, place a small line of gel onto that portion of the tray that will cover the front of the teeth to be whitened. Start by dispensing in the molar area of the tray and work along the tray. Use the gel sparingly as a little goes a long way. Place the trays onto the teeth. Wipe off any excess gel and wear as directed by the specific instructions for the whitening product you are using.

How long does it take to receive my completed trays from the time I place an order? BACK TO TOP
We dispatch every order 24-48 hours after payment is received and most customers receive their packages 4-5 days after the order is shipped.  Once we receive your custom impressions in the mail, please allow 7-10 days to receive your completed trays (about the same length of time as your dentist, but you save hundreds).

If I provide my own impressions or stone models, how much does it cost to have trays  made? BACK TO TOP
You can order custom trays using your existing stone molds for $27.50 (includes shipping) for 1 complete set (1 upper/1 lower).  Each additional set of trays is only $10 more.  You can mail your stone models to: Extreme-white Lab, PO Box 272366, Fort Collins, CO  80527 and send payments via PayPal to Christian@ddswhite.com

Can I have my stone tooth models sent to me? BACK TO TOP
After we have completed your order, your stone models and impressions are retained for 60 days before being discarded.  If you would like your stone models, we can ship them to you at no additional cost upon request. Include a note in the return mailing envelope indicating you would like your stone models and return it with your impressions.

What is the difference between boil and bite and custom-fitted whitening trays? BACK TO TOP
The ADA recommends custom fitted trays for proper at-home tooth whitening.  Custom bleaching trays are specifically designed to fit only your mouth for comfort and preciseness.  Because they are more precise, they hold the gel right against the teeth and work better to whiten those hard to reach areas.  With custom trays, you will get whiter teeth, faster.

What is the shelf life of the whitening gel? BACK TO TOP
The shelf life of every whitening gel we carry is approx. 18 months from the date you purchase it unless specified on the package itself.  For best results, store leftover bleaching material in a cool place (below 75
° F. - in the fridge if possible) and allow to warm up to room temperature before use.  

What is the shelf-life of the gel and how should I store my left-over gel? BACK TO TOP
Store gel at room temperature, not over
80º F.  If storing for long periods, the strength is best preserved by refrigeration.  If the syringes have been refrigerated, they should be allowed to warm to room temperature before being used again.  Do not freeze the gel syringes.  Protect the syringes from heat and direct sunlight.  Do not use after the date of expiration.  The kits have a shelf life of about 24 months if kept cool.

I need more impression putty, how do I order more? BACK TO TOP
Additional impression putty can be purchased for a low price of $11.50 including shipping (existing customers only please).  Send a payment via PayPal to Christian@ddswhite.com and indicate you need additional putty in the payment subject/information field.  Your replacement putty will be shipped to the address on your PayPal account immediately via First Class Mail unless otherwise requested (Note: faster courier service will require additional shipping costs).

Will whitening work if I have veneers? BACK TO TOP
Veneers are translucent.  While the bleaching gel will not whiten the venner itself, it can whiten the tooth from the back, thus giving a slightly whiter appearance from the front.

Are the whitening results permanent? BACK TO TOP
Whitening your teeth is generally not permanent.  Results may last from 1-5 years.  Depending upon the amount of stain-causing foods you consume such as coffee, tea, colas, red wine, etc., restaining will occur.


How white can my teeth get? BACK TO TOP
Depending upon your initial tooth shade, your teeth can be 6 to 10 shades whiter (12-18 hours of use). Bleaching works well but each individual is different and so it is impossible to predict specific results. Approximately 5% of the population will have teeth that may be resistant to bleaching. The number of uses required to achieve maximum results vary by individual and amount of initial discoloration. Bleaching teeth that have large metal fillings may cause the metal color to show through the teeth.  

Is teeth whitening safe? BACK TO TOP
While teeth whitening has generally been shown to be safe, bleaching gels are not all the same. Calcium White gel does not contain amines, TEA, TRIS, Saccharin, potassium nitrate and excessively acidic solutions. This non-acidic pH bleaching gel provides etch free whitening. The Calcium White gel also contains calcium. This not only helps the teeth, but actually boosts the effects of the whitening ingredients, so outstanding results can be achieved with a gentler solution.

How often should I do touch-up whitening? BACK TO TOP
Upon completion of the  Extrme-white Bleaching System, we recommend a simple touch-up bleaching program that will help you maintain your new smile. Touch up treatment is designed only to keep your teeth white, not get them whiter. The maintenance program is simple: Wear your custom trays with gel 1-4 hours, once per month. This program is optional and dependant upon your lifestyle habits.
