Beaming White has changed the formula of the teeth-whitening gel in its Advanced Whitening Kit from a water- to an alcohol-based gel.
The change will enhance the gel's whitening power while increasing its shelf life, according to the company.
The whitening kit is typically sold to teeth-whitening service providers and consists of an applicator pen with 16% hydrogen peroxide gel, a cheek retractor, a bib, a finger wipe, and a vitamin E swab. The pen is used to paint the gel onto teeth without the need of a mouth tray.
For dentists, the kit comes with a syringe and a brush tip to apply the gel instead of a pen, and this version is also being made with the new gel formulation. The company also makes a 20%, 25%, and 36% hydrogen peroxide version of the formulation.
