Invisalign Whitening

Dr. Ralph Callender, Orthodontist

Patients that are undergoing Invisalign treatment can use their trays for tooth whitening while they are aligning their teeth. Ask your dentist to order a gentle bleaching gel that is not as strong as the normal bleaching gels for Invisalign trays are in the mouth longer than normal bleaching trays.

Patients will still want to limit the amount of time the bleaching gel is against the teeth to the time recommended on the product packaging and then rinse the aligners and the teeth thoroughly to remove any remaining traces on gel. If attachments are present the result may not be uniform but after the Invisalign treatment is completed, re-bleaching the teeth should provide a satisfactory result.
