Tray Whitening
- One of the methods for whitening teeth uses a ‘tray’.
- First of all, impressions are taken from which a study model is made.
- This is painted with a special material which increases the thickness of the tooth area.
- When the tray is prepared, a small pocket is produced.
- The whitening solution occupies this pocket ensuring that it only comes into contact with the required surfaces and that no damage is done to the soft gums.

Clear Positioner
- Clear positioners offer a less visible alternative for correcting crooked teeth.
- Firstly, a rough impression is taken then a second impression is taken with a fine material.
- This gives a very accurate final impression.
- A ‘study model’ is made from the impression.
- A number of other models are made which represent the teeth moving into position.
- From these a set of positioners are poduced each one designed to move the teeth by a tiny amount.
- The aligners are used in sequence and the teeth are gently moved into position.
