Ultradent Opalescence Boost Pf 40% Single Syringe

Directions to use

PROCEDURE :

STEP 1:

Before use, remove syringes from refrigeration and allow the contents to come to room temperature before mixing the two chemicals together. Ensure the red and clear syringes are securely attached together before proceeding. Place protective eyewear and clothing on yourself and the patient. Check to see that the syringes are securely attached before mixing. Press the plunger of the red syringe in, pushing all the contents into the clear syringe. Forcefully press the small clear stem completely into the larger clear stem. Then press the clear plunger completely into the red syringe. To activate, press the chemical from the red syringe into the clear syringe with thumbs. Reverse action, and mix a minimum of 25 times on each side.

STEP 2:

Press all mixed gel into the RED syringe. Separate the two syringes and attach the Micro 20ga FX® tip onto the red syringe. Check the flow on a cotton gauze or mixing pad prior to applying it intraorally. If resistance is met, replace the tip and recheck the flow.

STEP 3:

Place cheek retractors. Completely rinse and air dry teeth.

STEP 4:

Apply gingival resin barrier to protect soft tissues. Express a continuous bead along the gingival margin, overlapping approximately 0.5mm onto the enamel. Begin and finish the bead one tooth beyond the most distal tooth that is being bleached, building the barrier 4–6mm high and 1.5–2.0mm thick. Express the resin through any open embrasures.

STEP 5:

Light cure the resin barrier for 20 seconds per arch using a scanning motion. Carefully check the resin cure with an instrument.

STEP 6:

Apply a 0.5–1.0mm thick layer of Opalescence Boost 40% to the labial surface of the tooth and slightly onto the incisal/occlusal surfaces. Allow the gel to remain on the teeth for 20 minutes.

STEP 7:

Then, suction the gel from the teeth using suction tip. Do not use water. Repeat steps 6–7 one or two times until desired results are achieved. Do not exceed three applications per visit.

STEP 8:

After the final application is complete and all visible gel is removed, thoroughly rinse the teeth.

STEP 9:

Gently slide the tip of a dental instrument beneath the OpalDam Green and lift it off. Check for and remove any interproximal remnants.

STEP 10:

Evaluate the shade change. If additional whitening is desired and no significant sensitivity is noted, reschedule the patient in three to five days for repeat treatment or to dispense take-home whitening trays.
