PBM WHITE FAQS

A white smile is nothing short of a welcoming smile.
PBM White embraces the use of light technology to whitening smiles in a less invasive manner than traditional bleaching.

Our unique gel removes years of stains caused by coffee, tea, wine, smoking, etc.

General Considerations

For better results, we suggest having your teeth cleaned by a dental hygienist prior to using a whitening kit.
Do not use if your teeth are overly sensitive, decaying or loose. If teeth become overly sensitive, stop treatment.

You should avoid directly applying teeth whitening gel to gum area. If gel comes into contact with lips, gums or cheeks, you may feel a little burning sensation, rinse with water and the feeling will go away within 24 hours.

Whitening product will not whiten any existing dental restoration such as fillings, crowns, veneers, bridges.
We recommend the use of the PBM White Device for those 18 years or older.
Do not use if you are pregnant or lactating.
The PBM White device is made using silicon, it is latex-free.
Gel Pen Ingredients: Carbamide Peroxide, Glycerol, Propylene Glycol, Deionized Water, Carbomer, Carboxymethyl, Poly Vinylpyrrolidone, Sodium Hydroxide, Menthol.

Using your PBM White device

PBM devices are only meant for use by one person, and are not to be shared. These are reasons you would not share a toothbrush – the same would apply to sharing a device as the mouthpiece can transmit any of the following:
  • Bleeding gums. A toothbrush can easily spread blood-borne illnesses. Why is that? “When some people brush, their gums bleed,” Moldovan says. “That can result in exposure to bacteria and viruses that can enter the bloodstream.”
  • Bacteria. A toothbrush can harbor streptococcus mutans – the same bacteria responsible for MRSA infections, flesh-eating bacteria and tooth decay.
  • Food particles. A toothbrush can expose you to what someone else ate for dinner, possibly even the day before. That is especially true when that person fails to rinse or brush properly.
  • Viruses. Viruses such as the herpes simplex type one can be spread with toothbrush use. This is the same virus responsible for oral and genital herpes. Another virus that can spread with toothbrush sharing is HPV (human papillomavirus). That virus is linked to esophageal, oral and cervical cancers.
  • Fungi. Maybe you don’t think of a toothbrush as a potential petri dish, but fungi such as candida (the fungus responsible for diaper rash and yeast infections) can live on toothbrushes.
  • Periodontal disease. One of the most common oral infections, periodontitis, can be spread via the toothbrush. There are a lot of implications to that, such as the potential loss of teeth, Moldovan says. “In this case, it’s also not just a problem that’s limited to the mouth,” she says. “Periodontal disease can affect the whole body.”
  • Brush and floss teeth prior to using the mouthpiece.
  • While looking in the mirror, compare your teeth to the shade guide chart
  • Apply whitening gel by painting the gel to your upper and lower teeth, avoiding lips, gums, and cheeks. *do not apply too much gel, more will not get you faster or better results *if gel comes into contact with lips, gums or teeth, rinse well with water
  • Bite down on the mouthpiece and take deep breaths through your nose
  • Turn on the light by tapping the power button. Automatically the blue light will turn on for 15 minutes. This is stage 1 of the whitening process *The blue light is used to activate the gel quickly without any heat or ultraviolet light, helping to remove stains.
  • After stage 1 is complete, the mouthpiece will turn off. Tap the power button again to begin Stage 2 with the blue and red light, for 10 minutes *The red light is used to stimulate cellular regeneration, which helps heal minor mouth irritations
  • Remove the mouthpiece and rinse under warm water. Do not eat or drink for 30 minutes after the treatment is finished
  • Compare teeth to the shade guide chart. Enjoy the results!

Caring for your PBM White device

The mouthpiece is manufactured from medical-grade biocompatible silicone and does not need any special cleaning or disinfection.
  1. Detach the mouthpiece from the battery pack.
  2. Wash it gently, using clean warm water.
  3. To dry, lightly rub the mouthpiece with a clean dry towel and let it air dry. Do not shake or pat-down hard on the mouthpiece to dry it.
Cleaning is simple and should be done after removing the mouthpiece after every use.
No. Toothpaste and toothbrushes are not recommended to clean the mouthpiece.

Yes the mouthpiece can be placed in water but not the electrical cables.

To prevent the deterioration of the battery it is best that the battery is fully used before recharging.

  • PBM Implant improves bone structure that leads to faster implant loading and greater implant stability.
  • Better osseointegration enables more efficient bone grafting.
  • PBM Implant allows to treat patients that would not be candidates including smokers, patients with diabetes ….

Why Light Therapy

PBM Implant uses 680 nm near-infrared (NIR) light, which is similar to heat lamps, to deliver energy gently but directly to the bone and tissue around the implant body. Similar to plants and photosynthesis, the tissue can absorb this light energy and convert it to chemical energy, which stimulates the cells for faster bone and soft tissue regeneration and faster implant stability.

PBM ORTHO

  • PBM Ortho is a non-invasive way to enhance a patient’s own healing ability by harnessing the power of light technology (photobiomodulation).
  • PBM Ortho is effective on any types of orthodonctics appliances including aligners or braces.
  • Photobiomodulation triggers a natural anti inflammatory response that has a deep pain relief effect during the treatment.
  • Enhanced biological activity improves your treatment efficiency.

Why Light Therapy

PBM Ortho uses 850 nm near-infrared (NIR) light, which is similar to heat lamps, to deliver energy gently but directly to the bone and tissue around the roots of the teeth. Similar to plants and photosynthesis, the tissue can absorb this light energy and convert it to chemical energy, which stimulates the cells for faster bone and soft tissue regeneration and faster tooth movement.
