Cavex Bite&White In-Office

Maximum whitening result with minimal sensitivity? That is the Cavex Bite&White In-Office System. The whitening gel is based on revolutionary Hydrogen Peroxide Superior (HPS) technology, which achieves unprecedented whitening results with 25% hydrogen peroxide. Using the extremely quick and effective HPS gel, the maximum whitening result is achieved in just two or three sessions!

Cavex’ exclusive In-Office whitening system is the only system that applies whitening gel with a brush, facilitating maximum control during application. The Whitening Barrier/Spacer protects the surrounding soft tissue and all areas that are not to be whitened.

Due to the unique composition of the HPS gel, the hydrogen peroxide works faster and more effectively, so that the maximum whitening result is achieved after just two or three treatments. This saves time for the dentist and decreases the risk of sensitivity for the patient, as sensitivity increases the more times treatment is repeated.

  • FAQ

  • How does teeth whitening work?

    Discoloration of teeth can have an intrinsic and/or an extrinsic cause. When the discoloring has an intrinsic cause, it means there are small cracks in the enamel and dentin. Molecules within these cracks discolor and cause the discoloration of teeth. Extrinsic causes are stains on the teeth surface. The gel in Cavex Bite&White In-Office handles both intrinsic and extrinsic discoloration. During the decomposition of the hydrogen peroxide in water and oxygen, energy is released in the form of radicals. These radicals penetrate the enamel without effecting it and break down the discolored molecules.

  • What is Hydrogen Peroxide Superior (HPS)?

    The whitening gel in the Cavex Bite&White In-Office Whitening System is based on the – by Cavex developed and patented – “Hydrogen Peroxide Superior (HPS) technology”. The HPS technology keeps the very pure hydrogen peroxide stable. As a result, the gel is immediately ready for use, without pre-mixing. Due to the unique composition of the HPS gel, the hydrogen peroxide works faster and more effectively, so that the maximum whitening result is achieved after just two or three treatments. This saves time for the dentist and minimizes possible patient sensitivity, as sensitivity increases the more often a treatment is repeated.

  • Is teeth whitening bad for the teeth?

    A whitening treatment should always be supervised by a dentist. Whitening under controlled dental office conditions is safe and effective. Clinical studies support the safety and effectiveness of bleaching gels when used appropriately. If tooth sensitivity occurs during the bleaching treatment, these effects shall only last for a short time and have no long-term effects. Cavex Bite&White In-Office is developed and produced according to strict cosmetic legislation and has undergone thorough testing and evaluation.

  • Does teeth whitening cause sensitivity to teeth or gums?

    Cavex In-Office should always be used in combination with Cavex Bite&White Barrier/Spacer. By applying and curing the Barrier on the gums, the bleaching gel should not come into contact with the gums, preventing gum sensitivity. Sensitivity to the teeth is possible and varies from person to person. In case of teeth sensitivity, a desensitizing product like Cavex ExSense could be considered after the whitening treatment.

  • How long does a whitening treatment take?

    How long a whitening treatment takes depends on various factors like the initial and desired tooth shade, but also the patients’ age. In average, with Cavex Bite&White In-Office the maximum result is reached within a maximum of two or three sessions.

  • How many shades whiter will teeth become?

    An exact indication of how many shades the teeth will become whiter cannot be given. What can be said is that the teeth will be whiter after the whitening treatment. How many shades differs from person to person, depending on the nature and state of the teeth and the type measurement technique.

  • How long will the whitening result last?

    How long the results last depends heavily on the patients eating, drinking and smoking habits. If the teeth go darker either an In-Office touch up or At-Home touchup (for instance with the ABC Masterkit) could be advised.

  • How many times and how long does the gel need to be applied on the patient’s teeth?

    Due to the unique composition of the HPS gel, the hydrogen peroxide works faster and more effectively. A bleaching session with Cavex Bite&White In-Office takes just two or three applications of ten to fifteen minutes to achieve the maximum whitening result.

  • When will I be able to eat and drink after my teeth have been whitened?

    It is advised not to smoke, eat or drink any acidic or strong colored products (like black coffee) for at least 24 hours after treatment.

  • Why does the Cavex Bite&White In-Office gel contain 25% hydrogen peroxide instead of 35%?

    Due to the unique composition of the HPS gel, the 25% hydrogen peroxide works faster and more effectively, so that the maximum whitening result is achieved after just two or three sessions. This saves time for the dentist and minimizes possible patient sensitivity, as sensitivity increases the more often a bleaching treatment is repeated.

  • Why is the Cavex Bite&White In-Office bleaching gel in a pen?

    Only the Cavex Bite&White In-Office Whitening System uses pens with a brush to apply the whitening gel. The pen handles very pleasantly and by simply turning the back of the pen, the gel is dosed into the brush. This unique application technique offers complete control over the dosing and application of the whitening gel.

  • How should Cavex Bite&White In-Office be stored?

    De Cavex Bite&White In-Office kan dankzij de HPS-technologie bij kamertemperatuur (max. 25 ºC) bewaard worden. De gel wordt pas actief bij vocht en temperatuur uit de mond.

  • How long can Cavex Bite&White In-Office be stored?

    The Cavex Bite&White In-Office products have a shelf life of three years and can be stored at room temperature (max. 25 ºC).

  • Does Cavex Bite&White In-Office contain fluoride?

    Cavex Bite&White In-Office does not contain fluoride. The application of fluoride for ten to fifteen minutes is considered too short to reach any desired effect.

  • Can restorations, crowns and facings be bleached?

    Whitening gel will not bleach restorations, crowns and facings. A possible solution for this is to replace the restorations after reaching the desired shade.

  • Should a whitening lamp be used

    Whitening lamps do not contribute considerably to the effectiveness of any bleaching product. The Whitening lamp may create warmth, increasing the temperature of the teeth. A temperature increase of 5.5 degrees poses risk of irreversible pulp damage. Therefore, the use of whitening lamps is widely discouraged.

  • Tooth‐whitening at the dentist or at home, what is the difference?

    Consult with your dentist to determine whether an in-office, an at-home bleaching treatment or a combination will be best to achieve the desired bleaching result.

  • How long can the whitening pen be stored after it’s first use?

    We recommend finishing the pen during the whitening treatment. However, if there is material left in the pen you want to use in a later treatment on the same patient, we advice an expiry date that is 70% of the expiry date that is printed on the label. You do not need to refrigerate the pen, make sure it is stored in a clean and cool/dry place. Always make sure there is no cross contamination with other patients.

  • Do you need time between treatments?

    One whitening treatments consists of 3 cycles, if the patient wants more treatments we recommend to wait a week in between treatments.

  • How long does the result last?

    This strongly depends on the patient’s lifestyle (e.g. smoking) and the patient’s level of satisfaction with the whitening result. Literature states around 1 to 2 years. Our recommendation is to use the Cavex Bite&White ABC Masterkit At-Home whitening solution for a touch-up treatment to prolong the result.

  • How about whitening in combination with a root canal treatment?

    If there are non-vital teeth with a similar shade as to the surrounding teeth, a normal whitening treatment can be performed. If there is a typical discoloration (as seen often with non-vital teeth) we recommend to perform an internal whitening procedure, inside the tooth. Our In-Office whitening gel is suitable but in this specific case the pen may make it more difficult to apply.

  • Can the Cavex In Office whitening be used with a light?

    Yes, this is possible. The same advantages (speeding up the treatment) and disadvantages (temperature increase) apply.

  • Can the Barrier/Spacer be cured with LED light?

    The Barrier/Spacer can be cured with any standard composite curing light, it will take 20 seconds.

  • What to do if a patient experiences tooth sensitivity after treatment?

    We advise Cavex ExSense tooth desensitizer. It works very well in case of both immediate and chronic sensitivity. Cavex ExSense can be used in the dental practice and at home.

  • Does the use of a fluoride containing paste before treatment have a negative effect on the treatment.

    No, we recommend to clean the teeth before treatment, in future Cavex will launch a prophy paste that is very well suited for the pre-treatment cleaning.

  • What is the effect of the exotherm reaction of the HPS whitening gel?

    The HPS is unique with the exotherm reaction. On average the temperature increase will be about 2 degrees Celsius. It speeds up the whitening process without any negative impact on the pulpa.

  • How many cycles can be done with pen?

    It depends on how the gel is applied. Focusing on the six front teeth, on average one pen will ben sufficient for 1 to 2 cycles.

  • How about the various cycles in one treatment with respect to intervals, number of cycles, etc.

    In general, stick with the procedure you are familiar with. We recommend 3-4 cycles. There is no need for intervals but be alert on any inflammation in the mouth or sensitivity. In this case, continue treatment after one week.

  • How many times can you do a whitening treatment.

    We do not know of any studies. As far as we know there is no limitation to the number of whitening treatment a patient can undergo. However, the older people get the more discoloration (sclerotic dentine) they get that cannot or hardly be taken away. The whitening effect therefor will be less pronounced. If done in the right way, whitening has no negative effects.

  • What are the recommendations concerning smoking and food after a whitening procedure?

    After treatment we recommend a minimum of 24 hours without smoking. Longer would be better, but this might be hard for any smoking patient. The same goes for strong colored foods, red wine, coffee, etc. These should also be avoided for a minimum 24 hours. And again, longer would be better.

  • The starter pack contains two whitening gel pens with and one barrier syringe with 5 tips. Is one syringe sufficient barrier material in relation to the two pens with whitening gel?

    Because the gel is applied with a brush, there is complete control over the application. As a result, just a thin line of barrier is required to protect the adjacent gingiva.
