The best tooth whitener uses custom excellently made rubber trays which force the bleaching agent into the teeth. Tooth enamel is made of mineral crystals that have open spaces between them. Think of a room full of basketballs. The basketballs touch each other but there are large open spaces between the balls. When food or any organic material gets into these spaces, the tooth color darkens. Bleaching agents dissolve the organic material leaving the teeth with their natural beautiful white color.

           It takes time for a bleaching agent to slowly sink into the full thickness of enamel. The best tooth whitener needs time to full sink into the teeth just like it takes time for water to soak through a dry sponge. White strips don't work because they never have time to get into a tooth. The instant whitening systems used in many dental offices do not work because there's not enough time to get into the teeth. Laser whitening doesn't work because it does not fully penetrate into the full thickness of the enamel. These systems only work on the surface of the teeth and do not last very long.

           The tray tooth whitening system is probably the best tooth whitener for a number of important reasons. One: It gives the bleaching gel a week to fully sink into the teeth. Two: The bleaching agent is weak so it does not burn the tissues Three: It is much cheaper in the long run because our patients can continually reuse there custom trays for years.
