Note: Before dispensing gel into trays place finger over tip and push out any air in tube or just pull gently back on syringe. This will prevent gel from oozing out unnecessarily.

5 Steps
Step 1
Getting started
Brush teeth with a wet brush, no toothpaste. Place a very small drop of gel on to the front compartment of the tray for the front teeth undergoing treatment. Overfilled trays can burn the gums and will not get your teeth whiter.
Step 2
Place tray
Seat the tray, with the gel, wipe away excess gel in mouth with tissue or dry soft brush. Avoid contact with gums. If gel comes in contact with the gums Vitamin E can relieve any discomfort.
Step 3
Keep tray
Keep the tray on your teeth for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Step 4
Remove tray
After treatment, remove tray. Rinse tray and mouth with water.
Step 5
Brush teeth
Brush teeth with wet brush. Toothpaste may be used at this point. If your teeth become sensitive to that, then switch your toothpaste to “Sensodyne” toothpaste.
