Bulletin from my NYC correspondent discussing her trials and tribulations
with teeth whitening.
“Now, 12 years ago when I was getting ready for my wedding, I had my teeth bleached, using these trays into which I squirted this bleaching gel. I’d leave the trays in overnight, and after 2 weeks or so, I had a George Hamilton smile.
It lasted for a while, but when my teeth started to discolor again, I again used the bleaching trays, and YEEEEOW! My teeth had gotten so sensitive from the first round of bleaching that using the trays overnight was totally impossible. I thought my teeth bleaching days were ovah.
BUT!!! My dentist just gave me this bleach that is really strong (32% hydrogen peroxide) and so I only need to keep the trays in for 10 minutes at a time. I feel no pain, tingliness or irritation at all and my teeth are getting really, really white.
Apparently, the important thing is the concentration of Hydrogen Peroxide. For example, GOSmile, which I tried, only has a 10% concentration, which my dentist says is a waste of time. The 32% gel works so well, and 10 minutes a day???
This magic potion is called “SAPPHIRE” whitening gel and can only be purchased at your dentist’s office. NY correspondent is a “walking XMAS miracle!” and her teeth are as white as
Santa’s beard.
