In-Office Teeth Whitening

At LADD Dental Group, we utilize the Venus White Max In-Office Whitening System. Here is what our in-office teeth whitening system entails:

• In-office Whitening
• Three or four 15-minute treatments with 38% hydrogen peroxide gel
• Syringe-to-syringe mixing chemically activates the product, ensures a thorough mix and provides maximum freshness
• Contains potassium nitrate which helps decrease sensitivity associated with bleaching
• Follow in-office treatment with Venus White Pro custom take-home whitening or Venus White Ultra pre-filled, disposable whitening trays for best results
• Venus Comfort Gel is available separately and contains potassium nitrate and potassium fluoride 

 

"Venus White Max is an in-office whitening system utilizing 38% hydrogen peroxide as the active ingredient with potassium nitrate to minimize sensitivity. It does not require a chairside whitening light to produce impressive results. The gel is mixed using a syringe-to-syringe technique (one syringe contains concentrated hydrogen peroxide and the other contains chemical activator). The system comes with a light-cured gingival barrier designed  to maintain an effective barrier yet be easily removed from embrasures and undercuts. Venus White Max may be used alone or followed up with a take-home product such as Venus White Pro or Venus White Ultra. Each Venus White Max kit contains:

• two syringes of hydrogen peroxide (0.96 mL)

• two syringes of activator with potassium nitrate (0.24 mL)

• one syringe of gingival barrier (1.2 mL)

• dispensing tips (five, 22 gauge Flock tips and two, 20 gauge Black Mini tips)

• instructions for use

A full line of patient marketing materials are available, including customizable pieces. Venus White Max is just one offering within the complete family of Venus White teeth whitening and oral care products. 

Venus White Max allows users the ease and flexibility of performing whitening procedures without a light. Mixing the gel is easily accomplished, and the kit contains enough material for at least 5, 15-minute treatments, although that many is not usually needed. The gingival barrier is effective in reflecting light and heat away from the soft tissue, but the low viscosity gel is challenging to apply effectively. Tooth sensitivity during the procedure was reported by 40% of patients; 60% reported gingival irritation. Whitening results were very good, and the shade changes averaged 5.5 (range of 2-10) on the Vita value-ordered shade guide. Seventy-five percent of consultants found Venus White Max to produce whitening results that were the same as or better than other in-office whitening systems they had used. Fifty percent of consultants rated Venus White Max better than other products they were using and they would switch to it and recommend it to a colleague. Ninety percent of patients would recommend Venus White Max to friends and family. This info and more can be found at https://www.dentaladvisor.com/evaluations/venus-white-max/".
