Simple delivery and precise application

Built in desensitisers.
- Post-operative sensitivity is inhibited with the use of our teeth whitening system as it contains unique built-in desensitizing properties.
- Potassium nitrate, the key pain reducing ingredient, prevents sensitivity to provide a calming effect.
- The high water content and short application time work well together to ensure minimal discomfort and lowered sensitivity.
Superior handling and fast removal

Fluoride releasing to strengthen teeth.

Note: Not everyone is suitable for in-office whitening. E.g. patient with translucent teeth or in the Vita* C group.
2. Patient must have good overall health.
3. Seal all exposed roots and restorations.
4. Inform patient that results are not guaranteed as the removal of stains varies between patients.
5. Acid etching before treatment is NOT recommended.
6. Large diameter suction tips are not recommended as they can spread the gel to other areas.
7. Mild discomfort in teeth during treatment can be a common side effect.
8. If patient experiences sensitivity during light curing, move the tip slightly away from the tooth. If this doesn’t work, remove gel and rinse the affected area. Assess other possible causes.
9. Delay any esthetic restorations for 2 to 4 weeks after treatment.
10. Advise patient not to smoke, consume highly coloured, hot or cold foods or beverages for at least 2 days.

Instructions for vital tooth whitening
1. Determine and record pre-operative shade. Please follow this Vita* shade guide arrangement according to degree of brightness:
B1•A1•B2•D2•A2•C1•C2•D4•A3•D3•B3•A3.5• B4•C3•A4•C4
2. Clean teeth with ONLY a flour based pumice.
3. Place cheek retractors and then cover exposed lip surface with petroleum gel.
4. Dry teeth and apply Gingival Barrier to both arches, slightly overlapping enamel and interproximal spaces.
5. Light cure in a fanning motion for 10-20 seconds until Gingival Barrier is cured.
6. Firmly attach a mixing nozzle to the Pola Rapid syringe away from patient, and insert the plunger. Dispense a small amount of gel onto a mixing pad until a uniform blue gel is extruded.
7. Using the nozzle as a guide, directly apply a thin layer of gel to all teeth undergoing treatment. A thin layer will help prevent the gel from running.
8. Leave gel on for 8 minutes (Optional: A curing light may be used at this stage, Radii Xpert or Radii Plus (SDI Limited)).
9. Suction off using a surgical aspirator tip.
Note: It is normal for a residue layer of gel to remain on the surface of the teeth.
10.Complete steps 7-9 three times (optional 4 times).
11.After the last application, suction all the gel off, then wash and apply suction.
12. Remove Gingival Barrier by lifting it from one end.
13. Record the final shade.
Instructions for non-vital tooth whitening:
1. Determine and record pre-operative shade. Please follow this Vita* shade guide arrangement according to degree of brightness: B1•A1•B2•D2•A2•C1•C2•D4•A3•D3•B3•A3.5•B4•C3•A4•C4
2. Isolate tooth/teeth undergoing whitening using a rubber dam. Ensure the dam fits tightly at the cervical margin. Note: If a rubber dam is not used, cover approximately half of the adjacent vital teeth with 3-4mm thick layer of Gingival Barrier to insulate from heat discomfort of the curing light. This is done when one tooth is being whitened non-vitally.
3. Open lingual access to pulp chamber and remove all composite, base material and gutta percha 2-3 mm apical to the CE junction. Place a glass ionomer/zinc phosphate base, at least 1 mm thick to ensure a barrier between the “sealed” root canal and whitening gel.
4. Place the Pola Rapid gel into the opened pulp chamber and onto the labial surface.
5. Leave gel on/in for 8 min (Optional: A curing light may be used at this stage, Radii Xpert or Radii Plus (SDI Limited))
NOTE: If using a curing light and treating inner and outer surfaces, 2 curing lights can be used (one on each side of tooth) to activate Pola Rapid.
6. Suction off the gel.
7. Repeat steps 4-6 until desired shade is achieved.
8. After the last application, suction and wash the gel off.
9. Record the final shade.
