What is the ORAL-X whitening and oral care system?
ORAL-X combines a clinically inspired LED Blue Light mouthpiece with our PAP-based whitening gel. The device uses a 42-LED array to deliver safe light energy that supports oral hygiene while accelerating the whitening effect of our peroxide-free formula.
What is PAP and why is it used?
PAP (Phthalimidoperoxycaproic acid) is a non-peroxide whitening agent proven to break down stains without causing oxidative damage to enamel or gum tissue. It’s ideal for long-term use and safer than traditional peroxide-based kits.
Is ORAL-X suitable for sensitive teeth or gums?
Yes. PAP is known for its gentle, non-irritating properties. ORAL-X was formulated specifically to support patients with sensitivity or those concerned about enamel erosion from peroxide treatments.
How long does each treatment take?
Each session is just 10 minutes. We recommend completing a 14-day course for optimal results, followed by maintenance as needed.
Can the ORAL-X system improve gum health?
Yes. The LED Blue Light technology helps reduce oral bacteria, which supports overall gum hygiene and health as part of a comprehensive oral care routine.
Can I use ORAL-X if I have crowns, veneers, or bonding?
The system will not chemically alter crowns or veneers, but it will remove surface stains and help return them to their original colour. It is safe for all dental restorations.
Is ORAL-X compliant with dental product regulations?
Absolutely. ORAL-X is peroxide-free and aligned with UK and EU cosmetic regulations. It is designed by UK dentists with the highest clinical and safety standards in mind.
Is this safe to use regularly or long-term?
Yes. The non-peroxide nature of PAP means it is safe for routine use. It supports both cosmetic and preventative care goals.
Is the LED light safe?
Yes. The Blue Light used is UV-free, non-thermal, and completely safe for soft tissue and enamel when used as directed.
What makes ORAL-X different from other whitening or hygiene devices?
Unlike abrasive pastes or harsh peroxide gels, ORAL-X is designed with a balance of cosmetic enhancement and oral wellness in mind. It supports both brighter smiles and healthier mouths, using dentist-backed innovation.
