Opalescence Go
Opalescence Go uses prefilled take-home trays that are designed to be comfortable and convenient for patients who want whitening at home.
Whitening before cosmetic work
Whitening may be planned before veneers, bonding, or other cosmetic work so the final shade decisions make sense.

What to expect.
Check oral health
The team checks teeth, gums, restorations, and sensitivity history before recommending whitening.
Choose the route
Some patients want a faster in-office option, while others prefer take-home trays and a more flexible schedule.
Protect the gums
For in-office whitening, the dentist protects the gums before applying professional whitening gel.
Follow instructions
Take-home trays should be worn only as instructed by the office. Wear times depend on the product and concentration.
Maintain the shade
The team can explain how coffee, tea, red wine, smoking, and home care affect whitening maintenance.
Smile Sequencing
Whitening is often one part of a larger smile plan.
Some patients only need whitening. Others should consider whitening before veneers, bonding, or aligners so the final result looks coordinated.
Veneers
If whitening cannot fix shape, chips, gaps, or old restorations, veneers may be discussed.

Questions
Ask the Dentist
Common whitening questions.
Am I a candidate for teeth whitening?
You may be a candidate if your teeth and gums are healthy enough and the discoloration is on natural tooth structure. The office should evaluate your teeth first.
Will whitening work on crowns, fillings, or veneers?
Whitening works on natural tooth structure. Crowns, fillings, and veneers do not whiten the same way, so shade planning matters before cosmetic work.
Will whitening make my teeth sensitive?
Some sensitivity is possible. Tell the office if you already have sensitive teeth so the team can help choose the right product, timing, and instructions.
What is Opalescence Pro?
Opalescence Pro is the current Opalescence in-office whitening treatment, formerly known as Opalescence Boost. It is performed in the dental office, is chemically activated, and does not rely on a light to activate the whitening agent.
What is Opalescence Go?
Opalescence Go is a professional take-home whitening option with prefilled trays. Wear times vary by product and concentration, so follow the instructions given by the office.
How do I keep the result brighter?
Good brushing, regular cleanings, and limiting heavy staining habits can help. Coffee, tea, red wine, tobacco, and some foods can restain teeth over time.
