What is the direct answer?

GLO Brilliant combines a mouthpiece, peroxide gel, and light source; results depend on the gel, teeth, and starting stain.

What does this question mean?

Peroxide is the active chemical component and can break down some colored compounds within natural tooth structure; restorations do not bleach.

What can you do next?

Have teeth and gums examined first, confirm the product instructions and mouthpiece fit, keep gel off the gums, and stop if marked irritation develops.

When should you seek dental care?

Seek care before use for decay, gum disease, exposed roots, unexplained pain, or a single dark tooth; persistent sensitivity or a chemical burn needs assessment.

What should you ask the dentist?

Ask whether the device and gel suit your teeth, how the mouthpiece should fit, and what to do if sensitivity or gum irritation occurs.
