Pre-Treatment

Perform a pre-treatment oral exam and consult with the patient on his or her desired whitening results to determine the best treatment plan for his or her individual situation.

Whitening Treatment

1. Apply lip protection cream and insert the BEYOND^™ FlexiBlue^™ Cheek Retractor with the tongue guard pointing down. Stretch the face protection cloth around the outside of the cheek retractor and fold down the top. Determine the existing tooth shade.

2. Place the protective eye goggles on the patient.

3. Insert cotton rolls on either side of the buccal frenum. Apply extra lip protection along the insides of the superior and inferior lip.

4. Dry the teeth and gums. Apply BEYOND^™ BlueSeal^™ Gingival Protection. Light cure in a circular motion.

5. Cut open the 35% H₂O₂ liquid container carefully. Protective gloves and eyewear should be worn in case of spill or leakage. Mix the catalyst powder and liquid H₂O₂ together using the included spatula into a wet paste. (Paste consistency should be such that it does not “drip” off of the application brush.) Apply a 2-3 mm layer to the teeth using the included brush. Set the BEYOND^™ Whitening Accelerator for a six-minute cycle using the Set Time button on the control panel. Position the BEYOND^™ Whitening Accelerator lamp head at a 90° angle to the patient’s teeth and press the Start/Stop button to begin the six-minute cycle.  Do not reseal paste container. Remaining paste cannot be reused and must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

6. At the end of the six-minute cycle, suction off the whitening paste.

7. If the patient requires additional whitening, proceed with the additional whitening treatment steps outlined in the instruction manuals included with all BEYOND^™ Whitening Kits. At the end of the treatment, remove the face protection cloth, cheek retractor, cotton rolls, and protective eye goggles and ask the patient to rinse his or her mouth with warm water. Show the patient his or her new white tooth shade.

Important Points to Note

Pregnant or lactating women or persons under the age of sixteen are not recommended to undergo the procedure.Terminate the whitening procedure if any patient reports severe tooth sensitivity and remove all whitening gel before treating with fluoride.

Within the twenty-four hours after the procedure, patients should avoid colored food and drinks. Use of tobacco products should be limited.

Contraindications

BEYOND^™ Blast^™ is contraindicated for patients with known allergy or chemical sensitivity to peroxides or glycols.

Do not use BEYOND^™ BlueSeal^™ Gingival Protection on patients with known sensitivity to resins. If dermatitis, rash, or any other allergic reaction develops, flush area with water and refer patient to a physician.

Special Notes

Advise the patient that it is safe to swallow their saliva during the treatment.

If the whitening paste comes into contact with the patient’s gums during the treatment, the pink tissue may turn white during the treatment. This will fade in a few hours following the treatment and is not cause for concern.

Depending on the patient’s diet, oral hygiene, and use of tobacco products, periodic touch-up treatments may be necessary to maintain his or her new, white smile.

The BEYOND^™ Blast^™ Kit contains 35% hydrogen peroxide. Keep out of reach of children. If accidentally swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center right away. If this product comes into contact with skin or eyes, rinse immediately with water and seek medical attention.
