Question and answer

Glo pro whitening

A GLO whitening device uses a tray and whitening gel, often with light and gentle warming, to treat stains on natural teeth.

The short answer

The clinical subject is an at-home tray-based whitening system. Its gel acts on stain molecules in enamel and dentin, while the tray holds product against tooth surfaces.

How can you use whitening gel safely at home?

Follow the supplied directions, keep gel off the gums, and stop for burning or marked sensitivity. Have decay, cracks, gum inflammation, or exposed roots assessed first.

What should you do about lasting sensitivity or gum burns?

Arrange care for persistent sensitivity, gum burns, or tooth pain. A dark single tooth may need assessment for internal damage rather than surface whitening.

Which tooth discolouration needs a dentist's assessment?

Ask whether the discoloration is surface or internal, whether restorations will mismatch, and which gel schedule suits your teeth.
