For many people, the teeth whitening process can really hurt. Popular over-the-counter solutions like whitening strips, gel-based solutions, and other hydrogen peroxide-based methods can leave your teeth a sensitive mess. Why does whitening teeth hurt? Well, it starts with the solution you choose.
At CustMbite, we knew there was a better way to get whiter teeth. We designed our Teeth Whitening Kit and Gentle Whitening Foam to attack stains with the same power, but with less intensity. This helps you to avoid pain from teeth whitening while getting the same results as you would with a whitening kit that relies on hydrogen peroxide. Let's get into the science of why teeth whitening can hurt and how you can avoid it.
There's one culprit in common when it comes to pain after teeth whitening: hydrogen peroxide. While hydrogen peroxide is extremely effective, it can cause sensitivity in even the healthiest and strongest of teeth. This is because it can temporarily cause damage to your teeth. When used for whitening, hydrogen peroxide solutions attack stains full-bore, sending in the oxygen particles necessary to break up stains all at once. This can open up minuscule channels in your teeth that can reach all the way down to the nerve endings, causing painful and sensitive teeth.
Choosing a non-hydrogen peroxide-based method is a decision that can spare you a lot of pain, especially if you already have sensitive teeth. CustMbite's Gentle Whitening Foam doesn't use hydrogen peroxide — it uses carbamide peroxide, a similar whitening compound that works just as well, but without the pain. But how?
Instead of hydrogen peroxide's full-steam-ahead approach, carbamide peroxide sends in oxygen to break up stains gradually. That means that your teeth aren't flooded with an excess of oxygen right away; instead, the stains are broken up slowly and steadily. It's a much less drastic approach to whitening, and one we think you'll find is highly superior to any other hydrogen peroxide-based solutions.
Sure there are. If you've ever been burned by the whitening solution you use, whether on your gums, tongue, cheeks, or other soft tissue in your mouth, you already know you want to avoid that problem too. The cause of this type of pain is the whitening solution leaking out of poorly fitted trays into your mouth. Not only does this cause pain inside your mouth, but it also tastes terrible and cuts the effectiveness of your teeth whitening method substantially. After all, if the solution isn't where you need it to be, it's not doing its job.
Our Teeth Whitening Kit addresses this problem by providing you with two trays that are easily custom-fit to your mouth. Our patented Vistamaxx material molds tightly to your teeth, ensuring that the Gentle Whitening Foam stays where it can be most effective. All you need is a microwave, a bowl of cold water, a paper towel, and less than two minutes of your time to get your whitening journey started.
