Some Frequently Asked Questions
Why does KöR Whitening work so well?
The KöR Whitening System works by restoring your teeth’s youthful ability to absorb oxygen. The oxygen from the KöR Whitening gel is absorbed deeply into the tooth, dissolving and removing stain molecules.
How long does KöR Whitening last?
Unlike other whitening methods, with easy periodic home maintenance, KöR Whitening is entirely permanent.
Is it safe?
Whitening products have been clinically studied for more than four decades and safely used on millions of patients without harm to teeth or gums. KöR Whitening is considered entirely safe.
Is there pain or discomfort with KöR Whitening?
Many have experienced pain during teeth whitening. Maybe you’ve experienced it yourself. After decades of research, development and clinical testing, Dr. Rod Kurthy, the inventor of KöR Whitening, introduced a whitening gel that, in most cases, produces little to no sensitivity. As a result, most patients have little to no discomfort from whitening when using this system. We have found KöR Whitening to be the gentlest whitening system available.
Does it matter how old I am?
Teeth are safely whitened at any age, however, the ideal age to begin whitening teeth is about 14 because the permanent teeth are usually all fully erupted in the mouth by that age. The younger teeth are, the more brilliantly they whiten. However, KöR Whitening rejuvenates even older teeth back to their youthful ability to whiten incredibly well, even if you’re 90 years old.
How white will my teeth get?
KöR Whitening whitens teeth dramatically, up to 16 shades or more. Although everyone is different, with the proper KöR Whitening System, all teeth will have stunning results. KöR even whitens tetracycline-stained teeth significantly in a short time, which was previously thought to be impossible!
Will my teeth look too white and unnatural?
No. Real teeth can’t look unnatural, they just look beautifully white. If you have seen people with ultra-white, fake-looking teeth, these were probably false teeth, teeth with porcelain crowns, or veneers that may have been made too white and too opaque. With KöR Whitening you’ll get the ideal shade that’s right for you.
Will my crowns, veneers or fillings whiten too?
No. If you have any of these on your front teeth, you may need to replace some of them after whitening.
How will coffee, tea, smoking and red wine affect my teeth after whitening?
With your easy home maintenance, these staining foods will have no effect on the long-term brilliant color of your teeth.
How does the KöR Whitening System work?
Molds or digital scans of your teeth will be made to fabricate your own unique, ultra-comfortable KöR-Seal™ Whitening Trays. You and your dentist will select which level of KöR Whitening is the proper fit for you. You will normally wear your KöR-Seal Trays at home for two weeks while you sleep. Depending on your selection, you may also have one or two simple whitening visits in the dental office.
Will the whitening trays be uncomfortable, difficult to sleep with or will the whitening gel leak out of the trays?
No. KöR-Seal™ Whitening Trays are very different from typical whitening trays:
- They’re comfortable: because they’re thin and ultra form-fitting, you’ll forget they’re even in your mouth.
- They’re convenient: by wearing these only while you sleep, it doesn’t interfere with your busy day.
- They’re secure: KöR-Seal Whitening Trays seal the whitening gel inside the tray, preventing the gel from quickly leaking into your mouth.
