Thank you! That was very clear and concise, and it answered all my many questions 🙏🏽 My “polyday” gel is from “2018-01”. Yes, I got it four years ago, and just procrastinated! My teeth have never been such a shade of yellow, and I’m really eager to whiten up! I don’t drink coffee, and barely any wine or tea… it’s just time. Just tried the first tube today. It comes out as a gel, not as a liquid. I have kept it in the fridge, I am hopeful that it will still work to some degree. The lower tray fits fine, the upper one, not as great. The upper one also causes me to have it get a mouthful of saliva, as well, so I may have to get a re-fitting 😞 to be able to tolerate it. The tubes say “9.5% hydrogen peroxide gel”. The dental assistant said to use it for *20 minutes*, which is markedly different from the amount of time you’re recommending. I’m going to call them to check if I mis-heard, or if they have another reason for that amount of time. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge 🙂

Anytime you put something in your mouth, your mouth thinks it's food and will start salivating more. You can swallow your saliva safely. As long as your whitening trays fit your teeth well, you won't be swallowing much of the whitening gel.

The dehydration makes your teeth look whiter, but then they will appear to get darker again in a couple of days as your teeth rehydrate. Whitening from the gel will last longer since it actually whitens your teeth and doesn't dehydrate them. I hope that makes sense.

Thanks doc,🙏 😊

I got 10% and I use it for a week every night but I don’t see a result. Maybe I don’t put enough of the gel? Any advice?

Hi, you need to give it more time, at least 2 weeks depending on the initial color of your teeth.

Can they be worn during day?

It depends on where you work. If you don't have to to talk to people, then yes, you can wear them at work.

I threw the tip in the bin is it fine if i keep it in the fridge without a cap ?

Should be ok, just be sure to pull back on the syringe so that the material doesn't keep oozing out. Try to use the material up in the next couple of days so it doesn't dry out. Thank you very much for watching.

Question I have been using 10 percent gel for 2 weeks now but seen hardly any difference. But do you have to dry your teeth etc before putting them on? Maybe I am doing this wrong I where them over night about 7 hours just fyi

Hi, it may take longer when you use the 10% gel since it is the weakest gel. Teeth don't have to be dry when put the trays on them. Don't eat or drink while you are wearing them.

THe opalescence gel I got it's kind of gooey and isn't as liquidy as yours and it's hard for it to come out. Does it have to be stored in a fridge?

It will keep longer if you store it in the fridge. How old is the gel?

The gel is supposed to be a little thick so that it stays on your teeth. Just use a little drop for each tooth in the whitening tray.

Hello, after how many minutes should I take out the teeth tray?

It depends on what strength of gel you are using. I will share a chart with you from Ultradent, a company that make whitening gel.

Can you swallow the bleach when you push the trays down ?

You'll taste the bleach. The key is to not use too much of it. You want it on your teeth not getting swallowed.

Many thanks
