At Smile Again Dental, we are very proud to offer the Premier Whitening System - KöR Whitening.
KöR Whitening is a blend of in-office and at-home treatments that gives the doctor greater freedom to control the strength and duration of bleaching used in the whitening process.
Typically, the procedure involves two in-office bleaching appointments a week apart, while the patient uses an innovative custom-molded mouth tray with whitening gel between the office visits.
KöR Whitening has been ranked the highest as the most effective and reliable way to whiten your teeth by 'Dental Product Shopper', a highly respected dental journal in the USA.
No other dental product of any type has ever been ranked higher than KöR Whitening, and it is the only whitening system to have ever received a rating of "Best Product".

Frequently Asked Questions About Deep Bleaching
Q: Why does KöR Whitening work so well?
A: The KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching™ System works by restoring your teeth's ability to absorb oxygen. The oxygen from its whitening gel is absorbed deeply into the tooth, dissolving stain molecules.
Q: How does the KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching™ System work?
A: First, Dr Nicula will make molds of your teeth so you can have your own unique, ultra-comfortable KöR Whitening Trays. Then, you'll have a simple visit in the dental office, followed by wearing KöR Whitening Trays for two weeks at home while you sleep. The KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching System is completed with a final visit in the dental office.
Q: How long does KöR Whitening last?
A: Unlike other whitening methods, with easy periodic home maintenance, the KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching™ System is entirely permanent.
Q: Is there pain or discomfort with the KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching™ System?
A: Many have experienced pain during teeth whitening. Maybe you've experienced it yourself. After several years of research, development and clinical testing, the inventor of the KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching System introduced a whitening gel that, in most cases, produces low to no sensitivity. As a result, most patients have no discomfort from whitening when using this technique. Testing has shown that patients who do feel some sensitivity using the KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching System typically feel no more than 10% of the sensitivity they'd feel from other whitening gels.
Q: How white will my teeth get?
A: The KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching™ System whitens teeth dramatically, often lightening them 16 shades or more. Although everyone is different, with the proper KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching system, all teeth will have stunning results. It even whitens tetracycline-stained teeth, previously thought to be impossible!
Q: Will my teeth look too white and unnatural?
A: 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. You'll get the ideal shade that's right for you.
Q: Will my crowns, veneers or fillings whiten too?
A: No. If you have any of these on your front teeth, you may need to replace some of them after whitening.
Q: How will coffee, tea, smoking and red wine affect my teeth after KöR Whitening?
A: With your easy home maintenance, these staining foods will have no effect on the brilliant color of your teeth.
Q: Will the whitening trays be uncomfortable, difficult to sleep with or will the bleach leak out of the trays
A: No. KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching™ trays are very different. They're comfortable; because they're thin and 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. Also, unlike regular trays, the KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching™ Trays seal the bleach inside the tray, preventing the gel from quickly leaking into your mouth.

Actual KöR Whitening patients - Before and after Deep Bleaching
For the in-office appointments, a strong 9% hydrogen peroxide solution is used, while a 16% carbamide peroxide solution is used for the home tray. Either the same 9% Hydrogen Peroxide or DeepBleachingMax (27% Hydrogen Peroxide) is used on the second office visit.

Enhanced Sensitivity Protection
Refrigeration also makes a difference to patients with sensitivity issues. Because the bleach stays fresher, longer - it doesn’t need to be shelf-stabilized with irritating chemicals. This means a typical patient can wear KöR bleach for a longer period without incurring sensitivity. Hyper-sensitive patients require additional protection, but KöR systems also provides these solutions, primarily the application of KöR Desensitizer after in-office bleaching sessions to help de-sensitize and seal the teeth.
Deeper Effects and Longer-Lasting Results
The KöR System also provides two dramatic benefits, unheard of with other systems. One, KöR is able to whiten tetracycline stains and two, KöR bleaching results are permanent.
Case studies confirmed these results - thanks to another KöR innovation–the superior fit of its custom mouth tray. The tight seal of the tray once positioned on the teeth, alongside the increased potency and decreased sensitivity of the gel, produce an easier-to-wear, harder-working at-home bleaching period than with most other systems. This more efficient wear-time permits the KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching System to work longer and harder than with other systems, thereby restoring your teeth’s ability to absorb oxygen. The oxygen from its whitening gel is absorbed deeply into the tooth, permanently dissolving even long-term or deeply ingrained stain molecules - and producing, in some instances, up to 20 shades of enhanced whitening. (Some exceptional cases even report between 25 to 40 shades whiter, in the case of removing tetracycline stains).
