Is There A Difference Between Take Home Kits Provided By A Dentist And Those Purchased At A Store?
Your teeth have become yellowed and a bit dingy lately, and you have decided it is time to revitalize your smile with professional teeth-whitening treatment. Patients who visit Dr. Valerie Scola at Scola Family Dentistry in Murrieta, California, love the results they see from the customized take-home whitening trays that Dr. Scola provides. With these trays, you get professionally effective teeth whitening results from the convenience of your home. While Dr. Scola does not offer in-house whitening treatments, she will work with you closely to ensure you get the best results from the provided at-home kits. You may be asking yourself what the difference is between a take-home kit offered by Dr. Scola and those you can get from the grocery or drug store. Let’s take a look!
Better Fit
While you may think there is no difference between a take-home kit provided by Dr. Scola and one you can buy on the shelf, there is a very significant difference in comfort and fit. Whitening trays provided by Dr. Scola are custom crafted to fit your smile perfectly so that the whitening gel touches the entire surface area of your teeth. Take-home kits you buy from a store are “one size fits all.” This is accomplished by first boiling the tray, so it is pliable. You then bite into it so it “fits” your teeth. The reality is that this is not exact and often results in a fit that is mediocre at best. The whitening gel will not sit flush with your entire smile, resulting in uneven shades of whiteness.

Professional Supervision
Getting a take-home kit from the store provides you with a set of instructions that come inside or on the box, and that is it. You are on your own from there. You are unguided, and this can result in poor results. When you get a take-home kit from Dr. Scola, you will have professional supervision of your results and a resource that you can reach to ask any questions you may have about the treatment.
