Why EmeraWhite Does Not Use Lamps in Its Teeth Whitening Kit?

The Science Behind Chemical Activation

Our EmeraWhite whitening gel is activated through a chemical reaction that requires no light. This method not only simplifies the process but also ensures a safe and comfortable experience for the user, delivering instant and lasting results.

Risks of Dehydration and Sensitivity from Light Use

As the popularity of light-accelerated whitening systems grew, various studies began to question their effectiveness and point out potential risks. Treatments using light may initially make teeth appear whiter, but this effect is often temporary and due to dehydration caused by the light. Additionally, this method can increase dental sensitivity due to the heat and dehydration involved with light use.

Increased Dental Sensitivity

One of the most significant adverse effects associated with light-based whitening is an increase in dental sensitivity. The heat generated by the lamps can cause increased sensitivity and discomfort. This critical aspect is something that EmeraWhite has chosen to avoid to ensure the comfort and well-being of our users.

Advantages of Chemical Activation Over Light

Safety: By eliminating the need for a lamp, we minimize the risk of irritation and damage to the gums and soft tissues of the mouth.

Convenience: Our system allows users to apply the treatment easily and continue with their daily activities without interruption.

Accessibility: Without the dependency on additional equipment, our kit is easy to use anywhere and at any time.

Commitment to Excellence

At EmeraWhite, we are committed to offering products that not only enhance the aesthetic of our users’ smiles but also take care of their overall dental health. We continue to innovate to provide teeth whitening solutions that are both effective and respectful of oral well-being.
