Why Do You Need Teeth Whitening?
Since your smile is the first thing people will notice about you, most people choose to undergo teeth whitening when they need to put their best foot forward, such as:

What Causes Teeth Discoloration?
- Aging: as you age, your enamel wears down which exposes the dentin underneath
- Foods/beverages: certain foods/beverages such as red pasta sauces, red wine, coffee, tea, and others can cause teeth to develop stains
- Smoking/tobacco use
- Genetics: some people are more likely to develop tooth stains than others
- Medical conditions/medical treatments/medications
- Trauma
- Environmental factors

Is my teen responsible enough?
- The gel is refrigerated, which means it is more potent than others
- Trays are custom-made to fit snugly against your teeth, reducing the amount of saliva that comes into contact with the gel. Since less saliva mixes with the gel, it remains potent, for 6 to 10 hours.
Many patients agree that this system creates much more dramatic, longer-lasting results than other teeth whitening systems.

Why is KOR Teeth Whitening Better than Traditional Teeth Whitening Procedures?
- The bleaching gel used in this process can whiten staining due to tetracycline, which is an antibiotic known to cause tooth stains. However, results can be difficult to predict, and patients should expect some improvement- but not perfection.
- One of the biggest disadvantages of teeth whitening procedures is tooth sensitivity. The good news is that with the KOR system, less than 10% of patients experience tooth sensitivity following treatment. This is because this system starts by closing off the tubules in your teeth to prevent the bleaching gel from entering.
