KöR begins with an appointment with your dentist, who molds a customized sealing tray to your teeth. This is important, because KöR’s trays are designed to be very closely fitted. “The thin trays avoid leakage and are designed to form-fit your teeth,” explains Dr. Fulbright.
KöR offers four teeth-whitening systems, depending on the degree and type of tooth stains you have. The option you choose determines how long you have to wear the whitening trays at home and whether you get an additional in-office whitening session after that.
- KöR Home is an at-home system that requires two weeks of daily or overnight application following the initial appointment with a dental professional to fit the tray.
- KöR Max adds an in-office whitening treatment to the KöR Home system. According to the company, in-office treatments are supercharged, with three bleaching ingredients to lift stain molecules.
- KöR Ultra offers an initial in-office whitening treatment, three to four weeks of at-home nighttime whitening, and a final whitening treatment in your dental office. It’s ideal for patients with dark stains.
- KöR Ulta-T is designed to target tetracycline stains, which are permanent and notoriously challenging to whiten. This involves an initial in-office treatment, six to eight weeks of at-home whitening at night, and a final in-office whitening procedure.
How soon you see results will depend on the system you choose and the scheduling of your in-office appointments. You’ll see your final results once you complete each step of your whitening process.
