On Thursday February 15, Philips Sonicare launched their new Philips Sonicare Teeth Whitening system. As a dental professional, I love the fact that the company is making this product only available by authorization from a dentist. The kit is sent to the patient's home and comes complete with everything necessary for at home tooth whitening. That includes tray material, the whitening agent, and a carrying case.
The patient places the tray material in hot water and then easily molds it to the shape of their teeth. It comes with 2 extra pieces of the material... just in case. However, I've had an opportunity to try the product and I can tell you with confidence that even if a tray is not properly formed on the first try, it can be reheated and reshaped to fit correctly.
It is available in 6% or 9.5% hydrogen peroxide solutions & provides results with minimal or NO sensitivity. I actually had it tested by my wife who has *very* sensitive teeth and she reported only *slight* sensitivity after the first session and ZERO sensitivity on the other applications. She also got very nice aesthetic results.
I'm going to be participating in the "official" launch press conference on Friday morning in Chicago at the annual Chicago Dental Society MidWinter Meeting and I'm really looking forward to helping talk about my experience with the product.
For more details, you can visit the Philips Sonicare product webpage or you can also read a great product announcement page on the Dental Products Report website.
I hope to see a lot of you during my time in Chicago!
