The active ingredient contained in all whitening products is hydrogen peroxide. Research shows that this active ingredient is capable of penetrating the surface of the tooth enamel without affecting it. Teeth Whitening occurs through a bleaching process that lightens discoloration of enamel and dentin. As the Hydrogen Peroxide is broken down, oxygen enters the enamel and dentin, bleaching colored substances while the structure of the tooth is unchanged. The light aids in activating the hydrogen peroxide and helps it penetrate the surface of the tooth.  In this way hydrogen peroxide removes stains caused by smoking, coffee, red wine or simply the aging process.

Research has shown that there are four elements to successful teeth whitening. The more of these factors included in a bleaching treatment, the greater the results that treatment will achieve. These four factors are:

   


                   Peroxide | Light | Pressure | Exposure

Peroxide 
This is the active ingredient in virtually all dental whitening products. It comes in many forms, but ultimately breaks down to hydrogen peroxide which penetrate the tooth structure, breaking down stains.
Light  
The breakdown of Hydrogen Peroxide can be accelerated and sustained by exposure to certain wavelengths of light, basically from about 400 to 560 nanometers. This is well within the safe visible light spectrum, far away from dangerous ultraviolet light. By exposing the teeth to light concentrated in this spectrum while the peroxide is on the teeth, the whitening action is accelerated and intensified, increasing bleaching effect.
Pressure 
Peroxide is of little value if it doesn’t get into the structure of the tooth. Mild pressure is required to accomplish this. Dentists apply pressure by molding a tray that is custom fit to your teeth. The peroxide gel is placed in the tray, and forced into place. Advanced Teeth Whitening Systems accomplishes this action without the need for an expensive, custom tray.
Exposure 
The longer you expose your teeth to a combination of peroxide, light, and pressure the whiter your teeth will get — to a point. Peroxide eventually breaks down into water. It “wears out” rather quickly, and the more light it is exposed to, the faster it wears out. Clients will see visible results after your first treatment but some clients will need additional treatments to achieve their desired level of whitening.
