1) How It Works & Materials

1-1. Principle of In-office Whitening

A peroxide-based in-office gel acts on internal pigments to brighten teeth from the inside — without shaving enamel. Unlike abrasive polishing, it won’t scratch the tooth surface.

1-2. Premium In-office Gel

We use a premium gel optimized for the balance of low sensitivity and quick results, paired with controlled LED activation. Concentration and timing are managed under clinic protocols (details during consultation).

1-3. Home Whitening (Maintenance)

3) Procedure Flow (~90 minutes = 3 sessions)

  1. English consultation: history, desired shade, sensitivity
  2. Pre-cleaning: remove surface stains for better penetration
  3. Gel + LED ×3: adjust time/cycles to response
  4. Shade check: verify tone-up
  5. Aftercare: diet/lifestyle tips + home-care guidance

4) Expected Results & Limits

We typically aim for 3–4 shades of improvement (varies). Yellowish teeth respond well; grayish or non-vital teeth may respond less. In those cases, ceramic veneers/crowns can improve both color and shape.

5) Safety & the “3-Session” Concept (Aftercare)

  • 3 sessions in one visit: controlled LED activation targeting a natural finish with individualized timing.
  • Gingival protection & sensitivity care are included for safety.
  • For 24 hours post-treatment, avoid dark food/drinks & smoking. For ~2 hours post, avoid very hot/cold drinks and carbonated beverages for stability.
