Auraglow teeth whitening kit before and after
Whitening results vary with the starting shade, stain type, gel concentration, tray fit, and whether fillings or crowns are present.
The short answer
An AuraGlow kit may lighten natural tooth enamel, but the result depends on the peroxide gel, tray fit, starting shade, and type of discoloration, and restorations will not whiten. Before-and-after photographs are not a guarantee for another person because lighting, dehydration, camera settings, and treatment conditions change the appearance.
What is the direct answer?
What does this question mean?
Whitening gel uses peroxide to break down coloured molecules within enamel and dentine. It does not remove calculus, repair decay, or alter the shade of fillings, crowns, veneers, or bonding. Yellowish age-related colour may respond differently from a single dark tooth after trauma.
What can you do next?
Check the gel label, expiration date, concentration, and instructions, and use only a tray that contacts the teeth without regularly flooding the gums. Stop if strong sensitivity or gum irritation develops. A dental examination should come before whitening when there are cavities, cracked teeth, gum disease, or uneven internal stains.
When should you seek dental care?
Seek an assessment before using a kit if you have toothache, untreated decay, bleeding gums, exposed roots, or a crown or veneer in the visible area. Contact a dentist if pain persists after stopping the gel or if one tooth remains much darker than its neighbours.
What should you ask the dentist?
Ask whether the discolouration is on the surface or inside the tooth, whether your restorations will mismatch after whitening, and what gel and tray design suit your mouth. Ask how the final shade will be assessed under consistent lighting.
Frequently asked questions
Will the kit whiten a crown?
No. A crown is made from restorative material and does not respond like natural enamel, so whitening can create a shade mismatch.
Why do online results look different?
Images can differ in lighting, dehydration, camera exposure, starting shade, gel use, and the presence of restorations.
