Daniel Sanders, DDS

This CE article examines the various teeth-whitening treatment options available in today’s market, explores the science behind teeth whitening, and discusses the side effect mitigation possible with the oral cavity isolation techniques (both open mouth isolation and a newly developed closed mouth isolation method) used during in-office teeth-whitening treatments.
