Ultradent Products, Inc. Announces New Whitening Product: Opalescence Go 6%

​Ultradent Products, Inc. announces its newest take-home whitening product, Opalescence Go^® 6% hydrogen peroxide whitening gel. Opalescence Go 6% provides professional results at a lower concentration than existing products, giving patients with sensitivity a safe, comfortable, and convenient take-home whitening option. The Opalescence Go 6% hydrogen peroxide gel has a wear time of 60–90 minutes and is available in delicious Mint or Melon flavors.

As with all Opalescence Go products, the 6% concentration features the UltraFit™ tray, which adapts comfortably to the teeth in a matter of minutes to give patients a custom-like fit and improved whitening experience. It easily conforms to any smile and offers molar-to-molar coverage, ensuring that the gel comes into contact with more posterior teeth. Best of all, the convenient, prefilled trays can be worn right out of the package.

Additionally, Opalescence Go 6% contains PF (potassium nitrate and fluoride). Potassium nitrate has been shown to help reduce sensitivity. Fluoride has been shown to help reduce caries and strengthen enamel. Together they help to improve the overall health of the teeth. ^1-5
