how do you use the whitener?

They give you green trays with a thin plastic-wrap lining filed with this hydrogen peroxide based goo. There are two sizes - small for your lower teeth and larger for your upper teeth. You put the trays on your teeth and suck in slightly. The liners (with the product) will stay on your teeth and you remove the green tray. Leave the liners and the product on your teeth for about 20 or 30 minutes. If your gums get too sensitive, take a break or alternate lower and upper. Don't swallow. I like this product and so does my partner.

Use every night for 1-2hours, in 1-2 weeks you will be able to know the difference on your teeth. Then you can just use once a month just to maintain the whiteness.

It depends on how white you want your teeth and how much coffee, tea, wine, and other staining food and drink you consume. For the first time you use a whitener, I would recommend doing a full course of 10-14 treatments over 2 to 4 weeks depending on how well your teeth handle the sensitivity (which is temporary and can be managed by taking days off in between treatments if you are sensitive). That initial treatment course will dramatically whiten stained teeth (getting a cleaning at a dentist's office prior to this is a good idea too). Afterwards, you will have to touch up every 6-12 months depending on your eating and drinking habits. You can also use once a week to once a month as maintenance.

Every time you put the whitening trays in...I used once a week. You have to put the gel in the trays...put those in your mouth...and then put the light in your mouth over top of the trays...a bit awkward to do.

You add a couple of drops to a few cups of water and then add that to your whites in the wash, Your supposed to put it in the rinse cycle but I put it in once the machine fills the first time and it still keeps my whites white. make sure you add it to the wash after the tank is filled and not before

I brush my teeth with Colgate upon waking and doing the normal morning routine. I also drink a couple of cups of tea each morning. After I drink my tea I will brush again and then I apply the whitening stick and let it set. I use it each evening and I apply a little bit more at night before bed so it can work while I sleep. I have super sensitive teeth but this product has not affected the sensitivity and I love it. It is so easy to use and results are great. If you do eat breakfast then as Jem stated wait about 30 minutes.

You use the clear ones for whitening. The blue one is for strengthening the enamel which you would use on occasion. I'm surprised you didn't get instructions with the package.

The whitener is effective enough for me to use once per day for 2 weeks. Depends on cases, people suggest using it every 6 month.

You can use the "Pro Clean" and the "Pro Whitening" on the Pro Whitening Spinbrush, but the "Pro Whitening" brushes are better.DawnD

You need to start slow. Try 15 minutes at the start. You will have tooth sensitivity (seriously) if you wear it too long. This is NOT a whitening strip that should be worn for an hour!

I leave it on one hour but I'm doing touch up only, not original whitening. My original was done in the dentist office. I now touch up after each time I get my teeth cleaned. There is an instruction sheet with the package.

I think its fine to use this first. Once you get to the whiteness you want you can reduce the frquency you use it. Years ago I was using my molds every night. Now I only use them twice per month. You will want to balance the frquency with the strength you use. When I started I was using 10% every night now with touch ups I use 15%. But I don't know what else you would use first. I have been using a bleaching gel ever since I got my custom moldsfrom my dentist.

I don't get it? The product description indicates there are 4 cleaning modes....4 cleaning modes (Daily Clean, Deep Clean, Sensitive, and Whitening). Even the instructions tell you how to sequence through the different cleaning modes but it doesn't seem to work. What am I missing here?
