The improved formula of Opalescence PF (potassium nitrate, fluoride) preparations based on carbamide peroxide, additionally containing fluorine and potassium nitrate - against hypersensitivity, increases the comfort of treatment. The addition of potassium nitrate and fluorine ion allows to eliminate or significantly reduce hypersensitivity during whitening. Opalescence has a pH of approximately 6.5 (close to neutral). The preparation contains 20% water, which reduces the risk of dehydration of the teeth.

Opalescence 10% PF and 16% PF are used rather for night-time overlay whitening or for several hours of therapy during the day. The preparations are available in three types: mint, watermelon and unflavoured.

In order to carry out the treatment with the Opalescence overlay method, the doctor takes impressions, which allow for making special, individual overlays for each patient. The transparent, comfortable and flexible cover ensures the safety of whitening while sleeping and is unnoticeable during the day. Overlays are made by a technician using a vacuum former. On the model, using the blocking resin included in the kit, the technician makes reservoirs that increase the effectiveness of the therapy by increasing the amount of whitening gel contained in the overlay. The dentist gives the patient syringes with Opalescence gel, explains how to apply it to the overlays and how long to put them on. At home, the patient simply places the gel-filled overlay on the teeth and leaves it overnight or for several hours during the day. As a rule, the treatment lasts about a week. The treatment is very safe for the patient, the latest research has proven that Opalescence PF preparations contribute to the remineralization of the enamel and prevent caries. After placing the tray on the teeth, the gel remains active for 8 to 10 hours. Significant whitening of the teeth is obtained after the first night. Prosthetic restorations (e.g. crowns and bridges) and fillings do not whiten. If necessary, after the color has stabilized (which usually takes two weeks), the dentist can replace them by selecting the appropriate lighter color. During whitening, a few percent of patients experience temporary tooth sensitivity to cold, which disappears within one to three days after the end of the treatment. The dentist may recommend the use of a special preparation (Ultra Ez) to minimize its symptoms. Opalescence gel is packed in small syringes with a capacity of 1.2 ml containing a single dose of the preparation.
