Has Anyone Tried Kor Deep Bleaching?

By 1Tracy1 on 18 Jul 2012

Does it work very well? I am thinking about trying it since Nite White 22% failed to give me the results I was looking for. I went to Kor website to find a dentist near me who uses Kor, but neither are using it anymore. Does it still exist? One of the dentists is using another Deep Bleach called Pageant White. I wonder if that's as good. Does it matter what bleach you use or is it all in the way the trays fit? I'm confused!

Hi! I am doing KoR Deep Whitening right now. I am now at Day 7. The protocol is 2 weeks of at-home tray bleaching (carbamide peroxide) and then a two-hour in-office whitening done by the dentist/dental technician. Since my teeth were tetracycline stained (C3 on the shade guide), I may do an additional 2 to 4 weeks with the trays after the in-office bleaching. So far, though, the results have been fantastic and it's only been one week. I can already see a big shade difference. Also, because of the formulation of the whitener and the use of a "desensitizer" on the teeth (used every morning), my teeth have not been at all sensitive to cold or heat. So far, I am very happy and I think after the in-office whitening on 4/11, I will be ecstatic. I've hated my teeth since I was 12 and already I'm starting to like them. My dentist and I are hoping for a nice B1 shade and I think I'm going to get it, which is like a dream come true for me. I was always told only veneers could whiten tetracycline-stained teeth. But KoR does it. I can't imagine why more dentists aren't using KoR but even in Chicago, only a few practices came up when I looked. The one I'm going to is a renowned dental practice that does all the tooth work (veneers, crowns, implants) for the Chicago Blackhawks hockey team (which is a lot of work!) Maybe one of the dentists near you could special order it or could refer you to a dentist who uses it? I haven't heard about Pageant White. Since most dentists take impressions of your teeth for at-home whitening, I think the trays are mostly fitted (mine are). I believe KoR is carbamide peroxide 16%. My trays do seal out saliva and other liquids. Good luck! I know it's hard living with permanently stained teeth--this is like a god-send.

For deep bleaching of the teeth dentists generally use peroxide based materials that contain bleaching elements. Thus, the discolored teeth are whitened and gives the patient a more confident smile with whiter teeth.
